Mortal Kombat 1’s announcement this year sent off an online frenzy faster than Scorpion’s Chain Reaction.
New character models were revealed, and the gameplay appeared to be a breath of fresh air, all thanks to the series’ revelation that it was reinventing itself in a parallel reality. The new Kameo Fighter system that relies on tag and assist is something we can’t wait to learn.
In addition, a new teaser featuring additional confirmed characters was shown Friday night (August 22) at Gamescom.
With less than a month until the game’s release, we figured now would be as good a time as any to compile all the information we have about Mortal Kombat 1 here.
