Mortal Kombat 1’s DLC roster has been the discuss of a lot hypothesis because the recreation’s reveal earlier this 12 months. Again in Might, the whole Season 1 roster appeared to have leaked by way of an Amazon Italy itemizing. Now it appears to be like like a kind of characters has been confirmed, lending credibility to the unique slip-up.
Noticed by Idle Sloth on TikTok, a brief clip selling a cross-media promotion for Name of Obligation included some feedback from the Vought Worldwide Studios, a fictional superhero leisure conglomerate from the hit comedian books collection and TV present, The Boys.
Under the clip, one consumer commented with “COD AND POSSIBLY MK???”, with Vought merely responding with “MK confirmed”. Additional down the chain, the corporate elaborated additional: “Homelander shall be out there sooner or later. That is all we are able to say.” Homelander is the principle antagonist of The Boys and the arch-rival of lead character Billy Butcher.
On the time of penning this, the feedback are nonetheless current on the publish, and on condition that that is an official account tied to The Boys and one other online game cross-promotion, we’re fairly certain it is correct. Whereas he will be the potential “first confirmed” character, that does not essentially imply he would be the first out there.
In fact, nothing has been confirmed by NetherRealm Studios itself, so till we get the official phrase from the developer of Mortal Kombat 1, then we will not say for sure. We’re assured, although. Plus, Homelander is a incredible addition to the roster in our eyes.
Mortal Kombat 1 shall be bringing the bloody battle to Swap on nineteenth September. The Swap port is being labored on by Shiver Interactive — which managed to get Mortal Kombat 11 operating on Swap fairly darn effectively — together with Saber Interactive, the studio chargeable for bringing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt to the hybrid console.
