If the Online and Story mode options are Red when you start the game, this means the game is still installing. Some features, such as Local Multiplayer, Single Player regular matches, Training, and the Tutorial can be accessed while the game installs the Story and Online features.

On Xbox One and PS4 the installation process normally takes less than 30 minutes but can take up to 90 minutes depending on your system. We would recommend checking out the Tutorial to learn the basics of Mortal Kombat X or brush up on your skills while you wait.
 
To check the progress of the install on Xbox One, you can return to the dashboard. The overall progress will be shown as a green bar on the game’s tile.
 
If the game has appeared to finish installing and you still cannot access Story mode or Multiplayer, please try turning your system completely off and then back on again. If the modes are still not available, we would recommend uninstalling the game and allowing it to reinstall again.
