Developers says it is redesigning female characters to make them less disproportionate that previous iterations

NetherRealm promises realistic women for Mortal Kombat X

Developer NetherRealm has said that the female characters in Mortal Kombat X will be more realistically proportioned than in previous games.

"The mantra for this game has always been realism, heading towards a more realistic look," production manager Spiro Anagnostakos said, as reported by GameSpot. "So the same thing applies to the proportions where we try to bring things back in per se to where they should be."

Mortal Kombat X will be released on PS4, Xbox One, Ps3, Xbox 360 and PC on April 14th.
