MORTAL KOMBAT 1 REVEALS KHAOS REIGNS DLC EXPANSION AND BRINGS BACK ANIMALITIES

NetherRealm has revealed its plans for Mortal Kombat 1 over the next year, including a new story expansion and Scream’s Ghostface.

If you were wondering why Mortal Kombat’s presence at Evo 2024 was weirdly low key, it’s because developer NetherRealm were holding back announcements for San Diego Comic-Con.

The studio held a panel dedicated to Mortal Kombat 1 at the event on Saturday, July 27, where it revealed new story expansion Khaos Reigns which includes the title’s next wave of DLC characters.

Like Mortal Kombat 11’s Aftermath expansion, Khaos Reigns is a story add-on which picks up after events in the base game, where Havik was teased as the next big villain.

This expansion also comes with six new characters in Kombat Pack 2. As already outed by leaks, this includes returning fighters Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot, along with guest additions Conan The Barbarian, Terminator 2’s T-1000, and Ghostface from Scream.

Terminator 2 actor Robert Patrick will reprise his role as the T-1000, while Roger L. Jackson will return as the voice of Ghostface. Judging by his omission on the press release, it seems Arnold Schwarzenegger will not voice Conan The Barbarian and there’ll be a soundalike instead, like the T-800 in Mortal Kombat 11.

Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot will be available when the expansion launches on September 24, with the three guest characters set to be released at a later date.
