At the Invincible panel at New York Comic Con this past weekend, NetherRealm Studios revealed that Omni-Man will be the first downloadable fighter for Mortal Kombat 1, and that he will be available in November
A new gameplay trailer focused on Omni-Man was shown during the panel, which showed a Fatal Blow and two Fatalities ripped straight from iconic moments from the comic book and TV show. The trailer also confirmed J.K. Simmons will reprise his role in the game–as his voice can be heard threatening Liu Kang and Scorpion–while also highlighting Tremor as the first downloadable Kameo fighter.
NetherRealm also confirmed the timeline for the first Kombat Pass, which is set to add six characters including Omni-Man to the roster between November and Summer 2024. The full release schedule is as follows:
- Omni-Man (November 2023)
- Quan Chi (Winter 2023/2024)
- Peacemaker (Winter 2023/2024)
- Ermac (Spring 2024)
- Homelander (Spring 2024)
- Takeda (Summer 2024)
While the studio did not also confirm when the other announced DLC Kameo fighters–Ferra, Khameleon, Mavado, and Johnny Cage–would launch, they did make one notable (and minor story spoiler) change: The Johnny Cage Kameo fighter will actually be Janet Cage, the gender-swapped version who briefly appears in the final chapter of MK1’s campaign.
Mortal Kombat 1 is available now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The Kombat Pass is also available now, either as a separate purchase for $40 or as part of the $110 Premium edition.
