It is the game that everyone has been asking about. Warner Bros Discovery and Nether Realm Studios have announced a new Mortal Kombat game. This time, we’re going back to Mortal Kombat One.
This follows the earnings report call tease that happened earlier this year. Warner Bros Discovery and Nether Realm released a new trailer, along with a brand new website to promote Mortal Kombat One, which will be released on September 19th for the following consoles: Playstation 5, XBox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
According to Mortal Kombat’s official website FAQ, Mortal Kombat 1 will feature reimagined fighters as they’ve never been seen before, including Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Kung Lao, Kitana, Mileena, Shang Tsung, Johnny Cage, and many others. It will also feature the return of NetherRealm’s genre-defining Story Mode with a brand-new cinematic narrative featuring unexpected twists on classic rivalries and original backstories for the wide-ranging cast of legendary fighters. They also introduced a new feature, Kameo Fighters, a unique roster of partner characters to assist during matches, creating expanded gameplay possibilities for players. These characters are chosen separately from the main roster of fighters.
The Standard Edition will be available physically and digitally for $69.99, while the Premium Edition will be available physically and digitally for $109.99 and will have all Standard Edition content, along with the Kombat Pack, early access to the game, and 1,250 Dragon Krystals (in-game currency). The Kombat Pack will feature a Johnny Cage character skin with the likeness of famed actor and martial artist, Jean-Claude Van Damme (available at launch), early access to six new playable characters (available post-launch), and five new Kameo Fighters (available post-launch).
And finally, the Kollector’s Edition will be available physically at select retailers for $249.99 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S only and will include all Premium Edition content, and early access, along with a 16.5-inch Liu Kang sculpture designed by COARSE and an inspired Liu Kang in-game character skin, three exclusive art prints, a steel case, and 1,450 additional Dragon Krystals (2,700 total).
