Though this game didn’t reach the peak popularity that some of its predecessors had, it still has a fanbase that has never lost confidence in the developer. It always supports the game and wants some extraordinary content to be added.

NetherRealm Studios seems to have granted its wish with the upcoming DLC Khaos Reigns. The news of this DLC coming for Mortal Kombat 1 has created a wave of excitement among players, but after the trailer was released, the hype reached its highest point. The trailer has revealed a lot about the storyline, which takes the game to the next level.

The upcoming Mortal Kombat 1 DLC has surprised fans with its characterization and storyline.

Mortal Kombat games are always intense fighting titles with lots of blood and assassinations. Therefore, these games are not for people who hate bloodshed, and once again, the trailer for the Mortal Kombat 1 DLC has proved this fact. 

If you have watched this trailer, you must have seen several heads being chopped off and bodies being torn off. These are scary scenes for any other game, but Mortal Kombat fans are well-accustomed to these scenes. The trailer has even confirmed that Animalities are coming back in Mortal Kombat 1 with this DLC. Ed Boon had teased this thing, but now it is confirmed.

Along with this, the trailer has showcased the Kombat Pack 2 characters. The DLC will bring six new characters, including Ghostface, Noob Saibot, Sektor, Cyrax, Conan, and T-1000. These are all fighting characters, and among them, Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot will be available in the beginning. Conan and T-1000 will come later.
