If you want the lore to make sense, play them in release order. Just keep in mind: it gets wilder than a Fatality!
Honestly, MK9 (2011) is a great starting point since it's a reboot of the series. Then you can jump forward to MKX and MK11.
Trust me, you don't need to play them all. Just start with the latest one, Mortal Kombat 11. It's got all the best stuff.
