I can't pretend to say I know anything about this game.
I have played classic versions of Mortal Kombat but nothing in the 2000s. I will at least link to it's website for a fair shake in this topic. It is being made by the same WB Game Studio that made huge hits such as the games Injustice 2 and some of the Batman Arkham games. The previous Mortal Kombat game this studio made was in 2011 and it got really high praise from 9/10s to 8/10 scores.
So it seems like they are a comeptitent studio. Most of their finished games are ranked extremely well.
