1* BaseBreakingCharacter: The guest fighters used in all of their games so far with the possible exception of ComicBook/{{Spawn}} for ''VideoGame/MortalKombat11''.
2* BrokenBase: The team has a habit for all their fighting games to patch them once every month. One side of the fanbase (casual) thinks this is fine, since it essentially keeps the game fresh each month, the other half (competitive/[[MediaNotes/FightingGameCommunity FGC]]) looks down on this practice since it needlessly changes the meta game instead of giving them a chance to properly evaluate and adapt to the game. It only got worse in the case of ''MKX'' after people were complaining about one of Tri-Borg's variations[[note]]Sektor[[/note]] and NRS ''immediately'' released an emergency patch that completely {{nerf}}ed it to near-useless status.
3* CompleteMonster: See [[Monster/MortalKombat here]] and [[Monster/DCVideoGames here]].
4* RatedMForMoney: Unsurprisingly given the team is behind one of the most violent fighting series ever made. The [[VideoGame/MortalKombat9 2011]] ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombat9 MK]]'' [[VideoGame/MortalKombat9 reboot]], ''VideoGame/MortalKombatX'' and ''VideoGame/MortalKombat11'' are the [[BloodierAndGorier most violent]] ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' games ever made to date, and even ''VideoGame/InjusticeGodsAmongUs'' and ''VideoGame/Injustice2'', their least violent entries, were pushing for how much the T rating can allow before going into M rating territory. ''[[ExaggeratedTrope And that's saying something]]''.
5* TrollingCreator: Take '''''anything''''' said or tweeted by Creator/EdBoon with a grain of salt.
6* UnexpectedCharacter: All of the guest fighters so far.
7* WinBackTheCrowd: Seen as a long overdue return to form, the reboot of ''Mortal Kombat'' was greeted favorably by fans and critics alike.
