After months of speculation, Mortal Kombat 12 has finally been announced, except it’s not 12, it’s Mortal Kombat 1. The second reboot of the famously violent fighting game series is on the way, with a confirmed release date, according to Radio Times.
Now we know what the game is called and when to expect it, details surrounding it have begun trickling out into the wild, including its full roster of fighters.
Several playable characters (ahem, kharacters) have been confirmed for the roster already, along with Kameo Fighters. You can check out who they all are below, along with a load of other information regarding the gameplay, rebooted (again) story, and more.
Keep on reading to find out everything there is to know about the Mortal Kombat 1 release date and roster of fighters, and to watch a trailer.
The Mortal Kombat 1 release date is 19th September 2023, it has been confirmed by the developers. Fingers krossed there’s no delay.
That’s right, there isn’t long to prepare for the ensuing bloodbath and to catch up on the long and complicated plot of the series before the latest game is set to be unleashed.
Fortunately, Mortal Kombat 1 is set to be the second soft reboot after Mortal Kombat 9, so it could be a decent jumping-on point for those new to the gory fighting game franchise. If this sounds good to you, it could be time to pre-order the game.
Mortal Kombat 1 is available to buy and play on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC (via Epic Games Store and Steam), and Nintendo Switch.
Sorry, PS4 and Xbox One owners, looks like you’ll be missing out on the latest soft reboot of Mortal Kombat 1.
It is strange that the game is launching on Nintendo Switch and not the PS4/Xbox One, given the disparity in horsepower between the consoles but NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros Games must have decided to keep the title on current-gen machines.
NetherRealm is developing the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of the game, QLOC is handling the PC port, and Shiver Entertainment & Saber Interactive are creating the Switch version.
