Mortal Kombat 1 This week saw the release of the latest fighter in Takeda Takahashi’s “Kombat Pack,” and if you’re wondering what NetherRealm has planned for the game beyond that, it looks like the studio will be sharing more information at San Diego Comic-Con this week.
Yes, instead of a reveal or panel at EVO 2024 last weekend, series co-creator Ed Boon has now announced that there will be a panel taking place on July 26, 2024 (i.e. today). It will focus on Mortal Kombat 1’s “year two” – covering “the continuing story,” upcoming fighters, and also some “big surprises.”
Ed Boon previously mentioned that NetherRealm was planning to release a “second part with more story” in the future, and it seems a data dig has already revealed the next batch of DLC fighters on the way to the final entry.
