    Mortal Kombat 1 – Get over here!

    TICK tock, tick tock was all it took to set the Mortal Kombat fan base alight over the previous weeks as they were excited to see what Warner Bros. Games and NetherRealm’s Studios had in store for the long-running franchise.

    Well, today is the day that the Mortal Kombat faithful finally rejoiced. They were expecting Mortal Kombat 12 but were introduced to Mortal Kombat 1, the next game in the franchise.

    After the time-altering events of 2019’s Mortal Kombat 11, we were all wondering what was next in line for the series as I, a fan since the series first inception have held this game near and dear to my heart. 

    The release of Mortal Kombat (9) back in 2011 really took its storytelling to another level, which invigorated my love of the series thanks to the already-established characters, it really took the fighting genre to another level with its fantastic story of the battle between Earthrealm and Outworld which then continued from there in the next two titles.

    Being a fan of storytelling in games, but not the greatest when it comes to the fighting genre, I very much appreciate the time that the Mortal Kombat team are now taking to tell a fun story and expand on the mythos of the series. I’m actually really excited to see what they have in store for Mortal Kombat 1.

    Along with the new teaser announcement, as of May 20, you will be able to pre-order the game and receive a bonus Shang Tsung playable character, access the upcoming beta and receive the ‘Kombat Pack’ which will include a Jen-Claude Van Damme skin.

    Sydney, Australia – May 19, 2023 – Warner Bros. Games today announced Mortal Kombat 1, a brand-new title in the acclaimed Mortal Kombat videogame franchise that has sold more than 80 million units since its debut over 30 years ago. Developed by award-winning NetherRealm Studios, the upcoming game will introduce a reborn Mortal Kombat Universe that has been created by the Fire God Liu Kang, featuring reimagined versions of iconic characters as they’ve never been seen before. Mortal Kombat 1 is scheduled to release on Sept. 19, 2023, for PlayStation®5 (PS5™), Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™, and PC.

     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,” said 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.”

     

    Starting tomorrow, May 20, Mortal Kombat 1 will be available for pre-order on all launch platforms*, including:

     

    • Mortal Kombat 1 Standard Edition will be available physically and digitally on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC, including Steam and Epic Games Store.
    • Mortal Kombat 1 Premium Edition will be available physically and digitally on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store) and will include all Standard Edition content, along with the Kombat Pack, early access to the game beginning Sept. 14, 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).

     All Mortal Kombat 1 pre-orders will receive Shang Tsung as an in-game playable character, and those who pre-order the game for PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S will also receive access to the Mortal Kombat 1 Beta, which will be available in August 2023.
