At The Game Awards 2019, which award did Mortal Kombat 11 win?

Mortal Kombat 11 won Best Fighting Game at The Game Awards 2019.

NetherRealm Studios developed Mortal Kombat 11, and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment published it in April 2019. The game continued the series’ fighting system while adding new mechanics such as character variations and Fatal Blows.

At the 2019 ceremony, Mortal Kombat 11 competed in the fighting-game category against titles including Dead or Alive 6, Jump Force, Samurai Shodown, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Its win recognized it specifically as the year’s leading fighting game.

The award was separate from Game of the Year and Best Action Game. Mortal Kombat 11 was also nominated in other categories, but Best Fighting Game was its winning category at that ceremony.
