The bloody fighting game Mortal Kombat 11 received a new update not so long ago, and, according to many players, it is bad. Instead of introducing new content or quality of life upgrades, Hogwarts Legacy ads popped up on the home screen, despite the fact that the two franchises have little to nothing to do with each other.
As soon as you launch Mortal Kombat 11, the first thing you’ll see is the Hogwarts Legacy game trailer, along with an invitation to go to the store page. That’s not all, as the game’s promotional banner will still be displayed at the top of the screen, which used to be used to advertise merchandise even vaguely related to Mortal Kombat.
The justification for the game is that both games are published by the same studio, WB Games. But this is not very convincing, as other WB-owned products have not received such a platform for advertising. Even another fighting game, MultiVersus, which probably could have benefited from more notoriety before it was consigned to oblivion. In addition, there are almost no similarities between the two games.
