Mortal Kombat 1 is a reboot of the iconic fighting game series developed by NetherRealm Studios and published by Warner Bros. Games. Here’s a comprehensive overview of what to expect from this latest entry in the Mortal Kombat franchise:
Story
- New Universe: Mortal Kombat 1 unfolds in a newly created world, a result of the events in Mortal Kombat 11. Fire God Liu Kang has established this fresh universe, setting the stage for a completely new narrative.
- Fresh Narrative: The story mode introduces a brand-new storyline with unexpected twists, marking the beginning of a new era for the Mortal Kombat universe.
Gameplay
- Signature Brutality: True to its roots, Mortal Kombat 1 continues the tradition of bone-crushing impacts, torrents of blood, and hyper-realistic death animations.
- Fatalities and Combos: Expect the return of the series’ trademark brutal Fatalities, along with the aerial combos that fans loved in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon.

Special Features
- Jean-Claude Van Damme Appearance: For the first time, Jean-Claude Van Damme makes an appearance in the game as a skin for Johnny Cage. This addition fulfills a long-held dream of series co-creator Ed Boon, who wanted to incorporate Van Damme into Mortal Kombat since its inception in 1992.
