In this GDC 2020 virtual talk NetherRealm Studios' Brian Keschinger explains how NetherRealm improved its in-game Mortal Kombat tutorials to better onboard players.

He also demonstrated how improving in-game tutorials led to an increase player engagement and helped the studio build sustainably for future projects, all through a flexible roadmap for diverse player types and an approach to teaching content via specific visual and auditory methods.

You can learn all about those methods when you watch Keschinger's talk, which is now available for free viewing via the official GDC YouTube channel!
