As a long-time fan of both horror movies and Mortal Kombat, I must say that the new Ghostface fatality unveiled in the Khaos Reigns DLC trailer is nothing short of terrifyingly awesome!

In a recent trailer for Mortal Kombat 1, it was unveiled that Ghostface will have his unique fatality move. Since Warner Bros. took over the Mortal Kombat franchise, they’ve been incorporating characters from various films in their catalog. The soft reboot of Mortal Kombat happened back in 2011, and since then, players have encountered characters like Homelander, Leatherface, the Xenomorph, and other DLC characters in recent versions. Mortal Kombat 1 is set to introduce even more characters.

On September 24th, the Khaos Reigns DLC for Mortal Kombat 1 will add Sektor, Cyrax, and Noob Saibot as new playable characters. Three more characters – Ghostface, T-1000, and Conan the Barbarian – are set to be released at a later time. Trailers hinting at these characters have been released by NetherRealm Studios, with a recent one showcasing Ghostface in action.

On September 18th, a trailer for the upcoming DLC of Mortal Kombat 1, titled Mortal Kombat 1, was unveiled by NetherRealm Studios. This trailer offered fans a sneak peek at Ghostface’s fatality towards the end. The gruesome finisher highlighted Ghostface’s horror origins, such as his reflection appearing in his opponent’s eyes as he closed in for the kill. Ghostface made his debut in the 1996 horror masterpiece Scream, which continues to be hailed as one of the greatest horror movies ever made. The franchise has spawned numerous sequels, each introducing new elements and characters adopting the iconic cloak and mask. The latest installment hit theaters in 2023 and received mostly favorable reviews.

Mortal Kombat 1 Shows off Ghostface’s Slasher Movie Roots with New Fatality

The Khaos Reigns expansion for Mortal Kombat 1 revives an old feature from the series – animalities, which were last seen in Mortal Kombat 3 back in 1995. With animalities, characters can morph into beasts and carry out a gruesome disembowelment of their opponents as a unique type of fatality. This additional feature will come at no extra cost for those who already own Mortal Kombat 1 when the DLC is released in September.

Mortal Kombat has featured characters from various Warner Bros. films like the Terminator, Freddy Krueger (from A Nightmare on Elm Street), The Joker, and Spawn in previous versions. This popular fighting game series has produced its own movies, with a first one released in 1995 and a sequel in 1997. Warner Bros. introduced a new take on the Mortal Kombat film world with a 2021 release. They’re planning to follow up the Mortal Kombat movie with a sequel set for October 2025.
