Mortal Kombat 11 is currently in development for PC and consoles, but it seems like NetherRealm is not putting its focus on a specific version of the game, as there is no leading SKU.
Speaking with Game Revolution, producer Trevor Traub confirmed not only that there is no leading SKU, but also that the Switch version is still really fantastic, despite some geometry reductions to make everything work on Nintendo’s console. This version of the game, while it’s being developed by another team, Shiver, it’s being developed parallel to the other versions, making it some sort of co-development.

There are special geometry reductions that happen to make it work on the Switch. The end product is actually really fantastic. We’re actually not developing it in house; it’s being developed by Shiver Studios. They’re developing it at the same time as us so it’s sort of a co-development. There is no lead SKU.
