As a long-time Mortal Kombat fan and avid gamer, I can’t contain my excitement as we approach Comic-Con and the potential reveal of new content for Mortal Kombat 1. Ed Boon’s announcement that we can expect more storyline and fresh fighters has me eagerly anticipating this year’s event.


Ed Boon announced at San Diego Comic-Con that they will unveil new content for “Mortal Kombat 1,” including continuation of the storyline and new fighters. With no update or panel at EVO 2024 on July 21, fans have been eagerly anticipating news about the future of NetherRealm’s game.

Approximately a year after its debut, “Mortal Kombat 1” continues to provide fresh content for players with regular updates. The most recent update introduced Takeda Takahashi as a downloadable new character and Ferra as a new tag-team fighter. Additionally, this update addressed bugs and enhanced overall gameplay experience. Players are eagerly anticipating NetherRealm Studios’ announcements for the game’s second year, which marks its first anniversary on September 14.

Ed Boon, NetherRealm’s Vice President and Creative Director, has teased that Mortal Kombat 1 will unveil new elements during its Comic-Con panel, including an extended storyline, fresh fighters, and exciting surprises. Though the specifics are yet to be disclosed, rumors suggest an expansion in September featuring Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot with a five-chapter narrative. Further insights into Mortal Kombat 1’s future will be shared on Friday at 2pm in Room 6BCF at Comic-Con, potentially including a trailer for a glimpse of the game’s upcoming developments.

Mortal Kombat 1 Will Get New Storyline And Additional Fighters

Ed Boon previously shared that NetherRealm intended to carry on the narrative of “Mortal Kombat 1,” similar to how they handled the “Aftermath” DLC in “Mortal Kombat 11.” Since “Mortal Kombat 1” is a soft reboot with Liu Kang’s conclusion in “Aftermath,” there’s still plenty of story left as Earthrealm warriors confront Shang Tsung and his allies. Through both the main games and their expansions, NetherRealm adds depth to the “Mortal Kombat” tale, delivering unexpected plot developments for players captivated by the game’s storyline.

At the Comic-Con discussion, there’s a chance fans will hear an authoritative update on the rumored tag team feature in “Mortal Kombat,” which was allegedly scrapped from the first installment. Amidst the buzz surrounding the game’s development, NetherRealm can quell fan concerns by sharing intriguing advancements for the series in the upcoming year.
