Want to get into Fighting games

[TheRaienryuu]

So yea, as the title says. I'm looking to get into fighting games, however I'm not sure which one I should get to try out.
I've looked at quite a few and tons of video's, currently stuck with the choice:
- Tekken 7
or
- Mortal Kombat (11)

Would people, familiar with these games, give some advice which of the two would be the one to try out as my first ever fighting game?

i'm myself want to get both those games, but i have played one of the tekken games in the past (which was fun) and i pretty much have most of the mortal kombat games on steam except for 11, i kind of prefer Mortal kombat but both games looks good

Mortal Kombat is a better fighting game. Tekken is easier to get to grips with, but has a lower skill ceiling.

Injustice 2 is also a quality fighter, probably on par with MK.

Important thing is, that you need to play fighting games with a controller or fighting stick otherwise its not fun.

have to agree, played for years with keyboard, until i got myself a controller, and its hundred times better and easier to pull some of those moves/specials moves on a controller then keyboard

That's no problem, already thought of that as well. Playing with keyboard, the thought alone, felt weird. I have an Xbox Elite controller to use.

Just pick whatever game you find the most fun and has at least one character you really like even if superficially, the rest will come naturally if you truly enjoy said game.

I havent played tekken but mortal kombat is good also injustice 1 and 2 are mortal kombat but with DC Universe characters. I will name a few fighting games that are good, Brawlhalla (similar to smash bros) Street fighter, and marvel vs capcom.

Tekken 7 hands down for me.
Tekken was always one of the most fluid and smoothest fighting games.
It's fast,fun and satisfying to play.

injustice 2 is a great point to start from. tutorials easy and the game flows well
