Mortal Kombat 1 Leak Hints at Story DLC Details

As a dedicated Mortal Kombat gamer with years of experience under my belt, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and skepticism upon hearing the latest rumors surrounding Mortal Kombat 1‘s upcoming DLC. With NetherRealm set to make an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con this month, there’s been no shortage of speculation about what they might be sharing with us next.


At San Diego Comic-Con this month, NetherRealm is set to reveal updates for “Mortal Kombat 1” and possibly its second Kombat Pack. The developers have kept quiet about what they’ll discuss beyond the game’s future. However, a reliable source within the Mortal Kombat community has leaked information hinting at imminent story DLC. Although unconfirmed, this leak suggests that three particular characters will be featured in the upcoming expansion, which could drop as soon as a few months from now.

A reliable source with a proven track record of leaking accurate information about Mortal Kombat games, X user thethiny, has shared news regarding potential DLC for Mortal Kombat 1. Previously, this individual’s insights have been confirmed through data mining and other means. However, they express some skepticism about the current rumor as it stems from an unnamed source rather than their usual methods. The credibility of this rumor is bolstered by the fact that a similar report about layoffs in NetherRealm’s mobile developer team was later confirmed, despite initially originating from the same unverified source.

Based on the report, Mortal Kombat 1 will unquestionably reveal its trailer at SDCC, a development consistent with NetherRealm’s past convention involvement. However, the intriguing aspect of this rumor revolves around an alleged DLC storyline, claimed to span five chapters. Moreover, there are reportedly three distinct DLC characters named for this expansion.

The user with an X account indicated through their reactions to certain comments that Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot are expected to be the new downloadable characters. While Cyrax and Sektor currently appear as alternate skins in the game, they could also function as playable characters. The release of these three figures is anticipated in September.

As a longtime fan of Mortal Kombat, I’ve been following the game’s developments with great interest. Based on my experience with the series and the latest trend in DLC releases for Mortal Kombat 11, it seems quite plausible that NetherRealm Studios is planning to release additional content for Mortal Kombat 1. The Aftermath expansion for Mortal Kombat 11 not only continued the game’s story but also introduced three new characters: Fujin, Sheeva, and RoboCop. The DLC consisted of five chapters, which aligns with the pattern we’ve seen in previous Mortal Kombat games. It’s an exciting prospect for me as a fan, and I can’t wait to see what new twists and turns NetherRealm has in store for us in Mortal Kombat 1. Of course, this is all speculation at this point, but given the company’s track record with their DLC releases, it’s not an entirely far-fetched idea.
