Ed Boon Wanted Each Character In Mortal Kombat 1 Voiced By A Big-Name Actor

NetherRealm has released its latest patch for Mortal Kombat 1.

Mortal Kombat 1’s Player 1 advantage issues came to light recently, with developer NetherRealm Studios confirming promptly afterwards that the issue would be addressed with the game’s upcoming patch. And though it’s arrived a little later than expected due to unexpected server issues last week, that patch is out now.

Mortal Kombat fans are already getting through the latest installment available. After Mortal Kombat 11, the development team over at NetherRealm Studios opted to do something a bit different. We’re getting a reboot with Mortal Kombat 1, where the focus is on a brand new timeline. As a result, there are several changes, such as new alliances for different characters. Fortunately, NetherRealm Studios is known for delivering new characters into the Mortal Kombat games after they release, and the same trend will continue with Mortal Kombat 1.

Mortal Kombat 1 is now available for players to enjoy, and it’s been a rather well-received game. However, if you’re familiar with the Mortal Kombat franchise, you know that, as of late, several characters will get added to the roster post-launch. With fans anticipating more characters to come, we have a tease from none other than Ed Boon. If the name is unfamiliar, Ed Boon is the co-creator of the Mortal Kombat franchise. Ed is also behind Mortal Kombat 1 and has taken to X to highlight a few potential characters that could come up in the game soon.

A major issue was discovered in NetherRealm Studios’ Mortal Kombat 1, showcasing a major advantage for fighters in the Player 1 slot. Long story short, those in the Player 2 position would find their combos whiffing, effectively ruining any semblance of a level playing field.

Mortal Kombat 1 development chief Ed Boon is up to his old tricks again, teasing fans about potential upcoming DLC characters.

Following recent leaks and rumours, Mortal Kombat boss Ed Boon is now teasing fans with potential future DLC for the series' most recent release.

Earlier this month, dataminers that managed to get their hands on Mortal Kombat 1 during the early access period seemed to uncover proof of future DLC characters that are going to be added in the near future. Intros were found for classic characters such as Cassie Cage, Jade, and Noob Saibot, but things got a little bit interesting after an intro for classic slasher villain Ghostface was discovered, as well as references to the character in dialogue alongside mentions of a cloak and mask.

Mortal Kombat 1 players have discovered a bug that gives player one a distinct advantage.

It might have raised a few eyebrows when NetherRealm Studios unveiled Mortal Kombat 1’s supported platforms. The next main iteration of the long-running franchise was confirmed to launch for the PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch. With the Nintendo Switch being far from the powerhouse console that the next-generation platforms provide, it was perplexing to see that PlayStation 4 and Xbox One would not be supported. However, upon the game’s official launch, it was clear that the Nintendo Switch was far from a perfect game. 

The co-creator of the Mortal Kombat series and director of Mortal Kombat 1, Ed Boon, has revealed that it was a consideration during the most recent game’s development to have every single character played by a recognizable actor.
