Mortal Kombat 1 (Reboot) 9.21.23, PS5/Xbox Series/Switch/PC

No Conan doesn't fit, and we didn't need another Arnold based character after we just had Terminator.

the barbarian warrior that fights witches, sorcerors wizards and savages doesnt fit in the series with witches sorcerors wizards and savages?

It's not alleged, you can clearly see that MK1 was supposed to be IJ3. The clash intros were a dead giveaway, and the art design and minimal customization is just like IJ2.

I remember people pointing out that the whole story doesn't feel like a MK story at all. Makes you wonder how far they gotten into the IJ3 development, before turning it into MK1.

The multiverse aspect is the foundation of Injustice, so I believe they had the framework done and then decided to just make it MK1.

Conan is most likely just a replacement for Kotal, It's not like they're building a story around Conan fighting these people.

Hopefully, this gets them to listen to the fans. Still, I have a theory that the "KP3 is cancelled" is just a diversion and they actually are moving ahead with it. Mortal Kombat is now their baby on the gaming side in terms of money. I don't see them pushing out another MK game this soon unless its a side game like Shaolin Monks. Its just too convenient that they cancel KP3 right after leakers started leaking information. Then one of the main leakers announces he won't be leaking any more NRS related material. This would allow them to push the KP3 with minimal or no leaks. I mean, we had all the info on Khaos Reigns a year in advance.

You dudes are weirdos. You want everyone to play the exact way same since MK3. Nothing wrong with Ermac or Rain(who’s much better than he was in MK11 wtf) Nobody gives a fukk if Scorpion is Hanzo, Kaui Liang, Hahasi, etc. As long as he can throw spear and teleport. The gameplay just sucks pure and simple. Same with MK 11, which people are glazing to spite this. Dont rewrite history. That game is even worse

MK11 gameplay was much better. Rain is easier to pick up and play in this game, but his moveset is garbage. Ermac is not Ermac. He looks and feels like a completely different character. The retro skins do him more justice than his primary and alternate skins. He's more of a sorceror now and not this mysterious entity who used telekinetically used souls to lift opponents. He now summons gigantic monsters.

I agree about the Scorpion/Hanzo/Kuai Liang thing. Still, they could've accomplished the same goal by making Bi Han and Hanzo Hasahsi brothers.
