So right away we got Liu Kang, Shang Tsung, Scorpion, Sub-Zero (whether it’s Bi-han or Kuai Liang remains to be seen), Kitana, Mileena, and I’m guessing the other guys are Kung Lao and Raiden.
Wonder what the rest of the roster will look like.
Will be interesting to see what they do with Raiden’s character now that he’s not a God & Kung Lao now that he’s supposedly humble.
Also would like to see the Katana / Mileena / Shao Khan / Sindel family dynamic, even though we’re not sure if SK / Sindel were reincarnated (Shang Tsung was brought back, wouldn’t be surprised).
Last thing is the Johnny / Sonya / Jax / Kano / Cassie / Jacqui dynamic, along with how they ret-con Sub-Zero & Scorpion. Would be crazy if FG Liu Kang just wiped Cassie & Jacqui out of existence & also ‘repaired’ the feud b/w the clans.
Netherealm has been king of these fighting games in terms of story and cinematic moments. Tekken, street fighter etc. may have better mechanics, but they haven’t had anything like this and are so lacking in comparison
Damn they changed everyone’s design again. I really like Scorpion, Kitana and Mileena’s new designs especially, but everyone looks good here. I can’t tell if that was Shang Tsung merking everyone. Really excited to what they do with the story in this one.
Side note its funny to me that this game is basically MK11 – 10.
Love the idea of going back to an older time and having that whole aesthetic. Characters when they were much younger or before a lot of story components happen. I’m very excited. MK is always top of all fighting games.
Hate how it’s the standard now to “preorder” to get exclusive characters. Or paying for extra characters. I sorely miss when the standard was just to replay to unlock characters, like Marvel vs Capcom 2 and Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance, and I feel the last great MK game was Deadly Alliance, with Deception coming in at a close second.
Liu Kang: “I created a timeline based on warmth and peace.”
Also: “If you do not choose peace I will brutally beat you to a pulp, summon two fire dragons tug your arms out of socket before I cut you in half using your own thick head as a fucking blade. Do we understand each other pumpkin?”
Can anyone remember the mortal kombat game on N64 I think it was like a platform style one ? Used to love that
I’m just happy it isn’t a simple fighting trailer with shitty music in the background
So its still a sequel. Cool. I was really worried it would be a reboot.

I want Bo Rai Cho farting again or we riot
I’m so ready to be terrible again
I liked the trailer. Let’s see what they made out of this.
Oh man, I got goosebumps. Great trailer, I love the continuation from 11 into 1.
I love that all the newest fighting games are getting rollback. LETS GO

Why is it called mortal kombat 1?
You guys think they’ll ever do another Shaolin Monks style of game?

OH MY GOSH! This was absolutely INSANE! I was expecting a Mortal Kombat 12 but this is even better!

Beautifully graphic.
I want mavado tbh

Those were the wettest sound effects I’ve ever heard.
Hopefully Smoke is a playable character.
Mortal Kombat… what?

I really enjoyed the Storyline from 11 ! And the expansion story , it seems like he restarted the timeline cuz he appears as God ?!?
No traditional MK music theme. Sad.
