New characters, stages and more!

Intro

Ultimate Mortal Kombat Deception is a modification for PS2 version of Mortal Kombat Deception. A custom PCSX2 fork provides easier way to edit code and also more available RAM.

NOTE: Current PS2 support is experimental, if it works it works - unless you find a crash that's easily reproducible I'm afraid there's nothing that can be done!

PS2 vs PC

PS2 support was added in the V3 version of UMKD, it is currently experimental and some features (nothing gameplay related) have been cut when compared to the PC (emulated) version.

Cut features

  • In-game menu (L3)
  • No camera options
  • No NPC select to save on bytes
  • No ini configuration

Konquest mode

Since the mod pushes PS2 executable hard enough, it is not recommended to play Konquest on the UMKD modded version of MKD.
