Good news gaming fans as NetherRealm Studios revealed new details for "Mortal Kombat X" regarding a new story mode gameplay, and its game mode features.

According to IGN, NetherRealm Studios teased Mortal Kombat fans by posting a 30 minute video of "Mortal Kombat X's" story mode that features Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade, Raiden and many more.

The video shows a preview of what gaming fans might expect from "Mortal Kombat X" as the first chapter will focus on Johnny Cage's point of view.

The story begins with after Shao Kahn's defeat at the hands of Earthrealm, and it is revealed that the fallen Elder God has escaped his confines in the Netherrealm.

Johnny Cage along with Sonya Blade and Kenshi are helping Special Forces in stopping a demon invasion in the city, while Raiden and Fujin defend the White Lotus against Shinnok. The video shows Johnny Cage and his group fighting off both Scorpion and Sub-Zero during a helicopter scene.

The necromancer Quan Chi has used his magic to resurrect every warrior who died in the previous game such as Jax, Stryker, Kabal, Sindel, Night Wolf and Smoke.

As Raiden and Fujin fight their way into the temple, they are greeted by both Quan Chi and Shinnok himself who uses an powerful amulet to beat them. Shinnok's mission was to obtain the "Gensei" and corrupt it, but he is stopped by the combined forces of Raiden, Johnny Cage and company.

Aside from the story mode gameplay, NetherRealm also shared other game modes for "Mortal Kombat X"

According to Gamerant, NetherRealm Studios explained the new details on the Tower, Kustom Kombat and Test Your Might game modes "MKX".

Kustom Kombat Mode allows players to fight their friends online with a number of modifiers (buffs and debuffs) active for added challenge.

Tower Mode is simply a progression-focused mode that lets players play unique challenges that extend beyond the basic 1 on 1 fighting that they are used to. There are some instances that this challenges are not fights at all, and it still retains its core "New Challenger" set-up in its basic version with a few difficulty levels.

Players will face off with new enemies as they ascend to the tower, with those fighters getting stronger and more difficult to defeat as they go.

Lastly, Test Your Might mode lets players participate in a quick time-focused series of events in which they try to break stronger boards. Timing appears to be key in this mode, as players must keep within specific boundaries to build enough strength to break the board.

"Mortal Kombat X" will be available on April 14 for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One, while the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions will launch in summer 2015 .
