==Art style==
As opposed to the heavily Oriental themes of ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'' and ''[[Mortal Kombat II]]'', ''MK3'''s theme is much more contemporary. The game's stages are set in modern locations, and traditional character designs (such as Sub-Zero's or Kano's) have been dropped or modified in favour of modern replacements. The overall game has a much darker tone then its predecessors, and uses a noticible darker and less vibrant colour palette. Characters are now heavily digitised (as opposed to the hybrid digitised/hand-drawn style of ''Mortal Kombat II.'') Many of the game's backgrounds are now, for the first time, created using pre-rendered 3D graphics. This change is also reflected in the sound track, in which all Oriental motifs have been dropped in favour of modern instrumentation.
The game has received criticism for an overall lack of attention given to its art direction [http://www.game-rave.com/psx/playstation_perfect_guide/releasedgames/mortal_kombat_3/index.html], [http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/launchreview.asp?reviewid=101759].
