Warner Bros. Games released last Thursday (18) the trailer for “Mortal Kombat 1”, the new game in the franchise. Developed by NetherRealm Studios, an award-winning studio in the game production industry, the next game will present an unprecedented universe based on the original story.
It is worth remembering that this story was created by the God of Fire Liu Kang. It will introduce us to reinvented versions of the characters we already know and love, as well as new names in this universe.
“With Mortal Kombat 1, we’re bringing a reimagined universe to the legendary franchise that has captivated players for over 30 years and continues to outdo itself.”said David Haddad, president of Warner Bros. Games.
“The talented team at NetherRealm Studios continues to push the series forward in bold ways, consistently expanding our global audience, and we believe Mortal Kombat 1 will continue to attract new players as well as captivate our most loyal fans.”
Ed Boon, Chief Creative Officer (CCO) of NetherRealm Studios and co-creator of “Mortal Kombat,” added:
“The game marks a new beginning for the franchise, and we couldn’t be more excited to share this original storyline and fresh take on classic characters with our fans.”he says.
“We’re also introducing our Kameo Fighter system, which introduces a unique roster of partner characters, and we’re excited to show you this feature, as well as other new gameplay elements, soon.”
When will the next ‘Mortal Kombat’ be released?
“Mortal Kombat 1” is scheduled for release on September 19, 2023, on PlayStation 5 (PS5), Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC. On May 19, the game became available for digital pre-order in Brazil.
All digital pre-orders will receive Shang Tsung as a playable character, and those who pre-order the game for Xbox Series X|S will also receive access to the “Mortal Kombat 1” Beta, which will be available in August 2023.
Without a shadow of a doubt, the launch of this new game should once again raise the games to a new level, given that the franchise has been reverberating since the 32-bit generation.
