Place the two files into your MKAK install directory.You can download them from my Dropbox here. Download two GWFL files: xlive.ini and xlive.dll.Go into Apps and Features on Windows 10 (right click on the Start Menu to reach it), and uninstall “Microsoft Games for Windows – LIVE Redistributable” and “Microsoft Games for Windows Marketplace”.
I mostly got the fix from this guide, though I ended up modifying it via trial and error and looking at one or two other sites as the steps as given don’t work on Windows 10. In fact, MKAK is only available for me because I purchased the game it’s no longer available on Steam for purchase.įortunately, there IS a fix. While many games were patched by their developers to use Steamworks, MKAK was already essentially abandoned by WB Games and was never patched.
What ended up happening was that the game hung at the title screen it said “Press Enter”, but completely ignored when I pressed Enter.Īfter doing some research, I found that the problem was that MKAK requires Games for Windows Live, which Microsoft had ended up abandoning. So, that night, while waiting for friends to be ready to play Team Fortress 2, I plugged in my USB gamepad and launched MKAK for some classic MK action. Now, I have Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection for both Xbox 360 and Steam, but my Xbox 360 is currently packed away (more info about that in a later post, hopefully).
Of course, I had played for several minutes on UMK3 before realizing, “Hey, I could be playing this at home…” While there, I noticed that for the first time they not only had Mortal Kombat II, but the original Mortal Kombat and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 as well. This past weekend, I went to the Houston Arcade Expo for my annual classic arcade gaming fix. It really is a shame that Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection has been more or less abandoned on Steam/PC.
