I told you this back in August, that it’s RIP Mortal Kombat, and no surprise, I’m right again.
Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns has only been out two months but it’s claimed plans to continue the game are over.
It’s said that there will either be no new content or very limited content and that the Kombat Pack 3 and a second story expansion are no longer happening.
“Verified Insider” says Kombat pack 3 and a second story expansion have been canceled
The info comes from Reddit user _FateUknown_ who has shared Mortal Kombat leaks and scoops in the past that turned out to be true. The user is referred to as a “Verified Insider” on the Mortalkombatleaks sub.
Posting in the Mortalkombatleaks sub, _FateUknown_ potentially first hinted at the demise of Mortal Kombat a month ago when he replied to another user questioning about datamine leaks: “Remember just because something is datamined does not guarantee it will release, things are cut during development all the time.”
Then just yesterday another user posted a video said to show what the next Kombat Pack could be about, but _FateUknown_ replied, “It is not.”
Another user questioned, “Is there even going to be a Kombat Pack 3 then?”
_FateUknown_ replied, “No.”
A fan took a screenshot of the conversation and posted it to the sub noting, “Guys…..it’s over.”
_FateUknown_ commented on the post, “Kombat pack 3 and a second story expansion were planned. All cancelled recently, no more characters after kombat pack 2. A kameo or two might make it since there has been work done on them but i dont know yet.”
Regarding why Warner Bros. Games isn’t moving forward with more content, _FateUknown_ said, “Khaos reigns sold poorly.”
Fans reject woke content
Back in August saw fans reject the Cyrax game-play trailer; the footage revealed that Cyrax and Sektor had been gender swapped.
Fans voiced their dissatisfaction on Ed Boon’s X post, with some questioning if the woke gaming consulting group Sweet Baby Inc. has ruined the game. Prior to Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns, Warner Bros. released Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League which Sweet Baby Inc. was involved with. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League led to a $200 million loss at Warner Bros because of its huge failure.
“Why hell the did you change gender of both Cyrax and Sektor. They were one of favorite characters other then Cyber sub-zero from mk9 and Smoke. Thanks for telling me to not buy your game,” replied an X user at the time to Ed Boon.
Another added, “lol how stunning and brave of you. Cyrax is now an ugly woman. I bet your average Mortal Kombat fan LOVES the DEI character changes. What an absolute disgrace.”
