In a new gameplay trailer for the Nintendo Switch version of the NetherRealm fighting game, Mortal Kombat 1, a Steam achievement can be observed being unlocked. The trailer, originating from one of Nintendo’s official YouTube channels, prominently features Sub-Zero, a prominent character in the Mortal Kombat 1 roster. Despite this being a Nintendo channel, a Steam achievement is clearly visible during the gameplay section. This occurrence has come to light following comparisons between the PC version of Mortal Kombat 1 and the Switch edition, with players noting significant graphical differences on the Nintendo console.
Mortal Kombat 1 impressively showcases its fatalities and brutalities, which are iconic elements of the game. However, the Nintendo Switch version has faced criticism due to noticeable graphical disparities when compared to the PC release.

On September 19th, the Nintendo of America YouTube channel shared a new trailer to mark the launch of Mortal Kombat 1. This trailer features both cutscenes and gameplay footage, and during a segment featuring Sub-Zero, a Mortal Kombat 1 Steam achievement appears in the lower-right corner of the frame. The achievement seems to employ temporary placeholder text, as it is simply labeled as ‘Achievement 38,’ accompanied by a generic description, ‘Description 38.’ You can spot this achievement at the one minute and forty-nine-second mark in the video.
At the time of writing, the trailer has garnered over 50,000 views. Mortal Kombat 1, a quasi-reboot set within an alternate and reimagined Mortal Kombat universe, was launched on Steam on September 19th and has received a ‘mostly positive’ rating based on user reviews.
