Mortal Kombat 1

Is there gonna be an all female dlc?…if so though I’d love to play as Beatrix/The Bride from Kill Bill.

I doubt it.

Now that you mentioned it, its weird there's no female character in that dlc line up. Barbie would be a good addition.

I noticed someone unfamiliar. Li Mei, good on their part for bringing someone from Armageddon.

Any game that gets Barbie content right now is going to be on to a winner. She suits Mortal Kombat down to a tee. I imagine there will be a lot of user content created out of that.

A little pre-Evo trailer. Can't believe they brought back Geras.

 

[Mani-Man]

Of all the characters...Geras?
But then, i think he is a popular character in tournaments and stuff right?

I never got it, the character always felt way to clunky for me.
But man, that Liu Kang Fatality is crazy.

 

[psylockolussus]

I look at my Mortal Kombat file on my computer. And I don't think I've played any playable character introduced in MK6/7.

With Geras returning, its clear that its a direct continuation from MK11. I'd like to know if certain characters who only appeared as Kameo Fighters (Sonya/Frost/JaX) so far, will stay that way. Right now, the roster is a bit overwhelming for a "MK1". But I hope it doesn't get as bloated as SFV which had like 45 playable characters.

 

[Sithborg]

Reptile, Ashraah, and Havik confirmed. More look at Stryker's Kameo, and I have no idea who the devil lady Kameo is. I like Reptile changes between ninja and reptile monster.

EDIT: Devil lady may be Sareena.

It is indeed her.

 

[psylockolussus]

Reptile is back!

I think this is going to be my proper introduction to Havik and Ashrah. Nice to see that they are featuring the lesser known MK characters instead of introducing a bunch of new faces. Ashrah looks amazing with the Angel finish move.

Yeah, having Stryker in this as a Kameo fighter doing police brutality s**t, especially in this day and age, is still never not gonna sit right with me.

 

[psylockolussus]

I just want to know if these Kameos like StryKer, Sonya Blade, JaX and Frost are merely assisting fighters, or if we could play them all as regular playable Kharacters.

Adding the announced eXpansion Kharacters, we have 25 confirmed playable Kharacters. They could definitely eXceed MK11's playable roster especially when a Komplete Kollection is released in 2 years.

Kameos are just assists. Now, they have options as assists, but Kameos aren't playable. Now, just because a character is a Kameo, that doesn't mean they won't have a playable version. Kung Lao, Sub Zero, and Scorpion are both, for example.

 

[psylockolussus]

Yeah I know regular playable Kharacters can be a Kameo fighter as well. Though it just seems a bit of waste some are just Kameos (unless this changes eventually), and they even have to share that Kameo role to regular playable Kharacters. I hope they at least play a role in the story.

I'd like to see a playable character introduced in Armageddon in this as a regular playable. DeKeption is finally represented, with HaviK and Ashrah joining the main roster.

Its pretty much always an issue with a new fighting game. Who do you cut? Because it is unfeesable to keep bringing everyone back. Based on the leaks we've seen, there are about 2 more open spaces available. We will see who makes it.

 

[psylockolussus]

I would laugh if those 2 are Taeven and Dagon, the only new playable Kharacters from MK7 Armageddon.

I'm Kurious if there will be someone entirely new as well. According to Wikipedia, MK8 is the only one that didn't have anyone new since it was the DC Krossover game. MK9 (the supposed reboot) had sKarlet. If Kronika finally becomes a playable, I don't think I'd count that, since she was so prominent in MK11.

 

[psylockolussus]

Sorted by their 1st game:
1 Goro*, Johnny, Kano*, Liu, Raiden, Reptile, Scorpion, Shang, Sonya*, Sub-0
2 BaraKa, JaX*, Kitana, Kung, Mileena, SmoKe
3 CyraX*, Ermac, Khameleon*, Rain, SeKtor*, StryKer*
4 Quan, Tanya
5 Frost*, Kenshi, Li, Mavado*, Sareena*
6 Ashrah, Darrius*, HaviK
X Ferra*, TaKeda, Tremor*
11 Geras*

*- Kameo

Wooh. This is a lot. The Kameos really bloated the roster. I'm assuming there's 3 more playable MK characters, 3 guest playable Kharacters and more Kameos, for the Komplete Kollection.

 

[Sithborg]

The beta character select suggests starting roster of 24, with 18 confirmed. I have also seen what the final 4 may be from leaks.

And yeah, I think the Kameo system, no only to have some new fun game mechanics, was also a way to get other characters in without having to build a full character.

 

[psylockolussus]

Its 19 if we count Shang-Tsung which i think will be available to everyone later on.

According to Wikipedia (I'm using it as a reference as i can't recall how many playables when I played it), there were 25 in the base game of MK11 including two unlocKables (Frost/Shao).

So 24 maKe sense. Even though it is a lower Kount, the Kameo roster is huge. Its reminding me of how Marvel VS Kapcom 1 had Jubilee, Kolossus, Iceman in the same role. So these Kameos aren't really Kameos, as they would be very visible assistance to the game and I think all of them would play a role in the story.

 

[BrollySupersj]

REPTILE.

 

[Bran The Man]

Any of you get a chance to play the beta?

I REALLY enjoyed it this weekend, although I WISH there had been some sort of practice mode. If only to get better with controls and learn each moveset, because I had the hardest time with specials and stringing together combos.

This was nice after a LONG break from Mortal Kombat and REALLY, gaming in general. Can't wait to play this in full in September!

 

[psylockolussus]

The IG page of Mortal Kombat posts bios of the MK1 roster. So far they've posted 14, along with 3 Kameos who are also regular playables.

 

[Sithborg]

Sindel and Shao [Kahn] confirmed, with Shang Tsung and Motaro kameos. So, 2 slots left, feeling confident in the leaks.

 

[Bran The Man]

LOVED seeing some more of Raiden's gameplay. Him and Scorpion's new re-imaginings have me the MOST intrigued.

 

[psylockolussus]

Sindel looks fierce. Shujinko is unknown to me. Another MK6/7 character that I haven't played in the past so that's interesting.

I'm curious to know if the story mode is going to be 12 chapters again, or if there's gonna be more. GraphiX is amazing and the story is intriguing.

I'm not going to pick this up til a Komplete Kollection is released (with possibly a bonus story campaign and more players). So I think I might replay the story campaign of X and 11 neXt month, to refresh my memories. I can't wait to watch the Fatalities montage neXt month! I rarely activitate those when I play.

Sindel and Shao [Kahn] confirmed, with Shang Tsung and Motaro kameos. So, 2 slots left, feeling confident in the leaks.

2 slots left for what?

Is that for Kameos or regulars.

I thought the count for the regulars is 24. 21 Have been revealed so far (including Shang).

 

[Sithborg]

Yes, 2 more for the main roster. I haven't been keeping track of Kameos.
