Mortal Kombat 9/Controls and Terminology/Controls

Controls

Here is a diagram of the controls in Mortal Kombat 9. The controller has been drawn as if you are on the left side of the screen. If you are on the right, Towards becomes Back, Offensive Crouch becomes Defensive Crouch, etc. The buttons remain the same. The buttons are just listed because, between the various joysticks and control pads, the layout of the buttons will be vastly different depending on the player.
