Mortal Kombat 9 is a game that restarted the MK series even before Mortal Kombat 1 was released. You can play it on Android through the Vita3K emulator, for which a major patch was recently released with optimization, the addition of a motion sensor and other features.
I’m glad that even on the budget POCO X3 Pro Mortal Kombat 9 almost always produces 60 FPS, but there are drops of up to 30 frames or lower when using X-RAY abilities. I’m glad that shaders compile quickly, and there are no graphic or audio bugs.
Mortal Kombat 9 is another reminder to budget Android gamers that they can upgrade from PPSSPP to Vita3K to play newer-gen games. I will just note that the playability of PS Vita games can vary, so MK9 is not an indicator.
I recommend using a Bluetooth controller to play Mortal Kombat 9, as YouTuber EmuGaming did. This makes it much easier to do combos, and the screen is not blocked by touch buttons.

To port Mortal Kombat 9 to PS Vita, they took the version from the PlayStation 3. It supports all released DLC and local Wi-Fi multiplayer. Exclusive additions have also been added to the game.
