Although they are well-known, hasn't really re-innovated their strategy for more than a decade. Some annual sports franchises are original however, the most well-known ones of EAFC 24 Coins, FIFA, Madden, NBA 2K and WWE are generally thought as sloppy cash grabs. The time has come for the industry of sports video games to look at other games as an inspiration source for example, Mortal Kombat, surprisingly, is full of lessons to impart.

Sports games shouldn't be released annually. It's not a radical assertion, since every year , the same debate occurs in which gamers and critics gathering to discuss whether a brand new FIFA or Madden is required or needed. However, despite the consensus that a brand new game isn't required this year, a lot of people decide to buy it, despite having spent months telling their friends and family that this year is the year to will be giving it away. In the end, all they see is the money generated by the game in the previous year. Microtransactions accounting for an important portion of the game's experience, businesses continue to make money through the games for a period of 12 months, until the cycle begins over again.

It didn't take long until sequels began to be released every year or that's the case starting with Mortal Kombat 2 releasing in 1993. and Mortal Kombat 3 releasing in 1995. Over the next decade and beyond, Mortal Kombat would continue to be a popular Mortal Kombat franchise would release each year a new game and some years getting two titles. At the time that came out, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon in 2006. the franchise's fatigue had already and truly set in, and the brand had lost the same weight it used to.
