The gruesome first trailer for NetherRealm's Mortal Kombat 1 (a soft reboot of the franchise) debuted yesterday, and details of the premium version of the game's first Kombat Pack have now leaked online via Amazon Italy.
Playable characters will include MK mainstays such as Quan Chi, Ermac, and Takeda, but players will also be able to take control of Invincible's Omni Man, The Suicide Squad's Peacemaker, and Homelander from The Boys!
It's going to be very interesting to find out how incredibly powerful - and ruthlessly bloodthirsty - characters like Homelander and Omni-Man match-up against each other and the MK regulars.
We don't have any images of the Kombat Pack characters just yet, but keep an eye out for updates. In the meantime, have another look at the awesome, fatality-filled trailer below.
NetherRealm’s genre-defining Story Mode returns with an immersive cinematic narrative featuring unexpected twists on classic rivalries and original backstories for a wide-ranging cast of legendary fighters, including Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Kung Lao, Kitana, Mileena, Shang Tsung, Johnny Cage, and many others. Mortal Kombat 1 will also introduce Kameo Fighters, a unique roster of partner characters that can assist during matches, creating expanded gameplay possibilities for players.
“With Mortal Kombat 1 we are bringing a reimagined universe to the legendary franchise which has captivated gamers for more than 30 years and continues to top itself,” said David Haddad, President, Warner Bros. Games. “The talented team at NetherRealm Studios continues to push the series forward in bold ways that have consistently expanded the global audience, and we believe Mortal Kombat 1 will continue to attract new players as well as thrill our core fans.”
“Mortal Kombat 1 marks a new beginning for the franchise and we couldn’t be more excited to share this original storyline and fresh take on classic characters with our fans,” added Ed Boon, Chief Creative Officer, NetherRealm Studios and Co-Creator of Mortal Kombat. “We’re also introducing our Kameo Fighter system which brings a unique roster of partner characters into the mix, and we are looking forward to showing this feature as well as more new elements of the game very soon.”
