NetherRealm and writer Warner Bros. Video games has but to touch upon these datamines, and are unlikely to take action. Mortal Kombat growth chief Ed Boon, who’s identified for trolling followers on social media, might have one thing to say about all of it nonetheless.
Within the meantime, followers are sorting these potential DLC characters into classes, and speculating as as to whether they’ll seem in Kombat Pack 2 or Mortal Kombat 1’s story enlargement.
IGN’s Mortal Kombat 1 evaluation returned an 8/10. We stated: “The bone-crunching gameplay of Mortal Kombat 1 is some of the best the series has ever seen, thanks to the game-changing Kameo system. NetherRealm delivers a fantastic single-player story mode as well. However, the new Invasions mode is a grind and the online options feel dated.”
