Some people who have too much time on their hands cracked open Mortal Kombat 9, finding a lot of information. Including the controversial practice of DLC being on the disk itself and needing to be unlocked by paying for it.
The real gem here however is the hilariously long and comprehensive banned words list included in the game’s code. The list is incredibly long, several pages long in fact, and contains countless variants of multiple words. Oddly enough, Mortal Kombat 9 is incredibly graphic in its realistic violence, including X-ray shots, people being graphically mutilated in ways that would make God of War blush.
The entire raw uncut list I dug up is here since I would rather not post 60 straight pages of profanity.
The list boasts a grand total of nearly 1000 words, including profanity in multiple languages, several slang terms for masturbation, several obscene sex slangs, racial slurs, and bizarrely the word “Kill” in a game focused on physically killing your opponent.
I just find this entire list hilarious. Some of this slang is stuff I’ve not even heard before, or was probably pulled from sites like Urban Dictionary.
Honestly, do you need 953 banned words?
