NetherRealm Studios has dropped our first look at Mortal Kombat 1's upcoming DLC character, Omni-Man.
Voiced by JK Simmons, you can see Omni-Man in action – along with the now customary brutal cinematics and fatalities, of course – in the all-new teaser below:
«The realms will tremble under the weight of the Viltrum Empire. Omni-Man approaches our timeline,» the team teases, before urging players to «get the Premium Edition now» in order to play as Omni-Man.
Omni-Man arrives in November alongside Ermac, Homelander, Peacemaker, Quan Chi, and Takeda, whilst Ferra, Khameleon, Mavado, Johnny Cage, and Tremor are set to join the Kameo roster.
As NetherRealm intimated in the video description above, these characters will unlock for no additional cost for players with the Premium Edition.

Ostensibly, the newest trailer for Mortal Kombat 1 is about Omni-Man, the first post-launch DLC fighter coming as part of the game’s Kombat Pack. There’s a ton of gameplay, including a longer look at his Fatality, which is inspired by the gruesome subway scene from Invincible in which many innocent train passengers are killed. And there’s a release date for Omni-Man now; he’s coming to Mortal Kombat 1 on Nov. 9.

An accidental posting from Xbox might have revealed when gamers will get their hands on Omni-Man in Mortal Kombat 1! You’ll find the listing from Xbox in the tweet below, but in essence, the post on the official store page for the game on Xbox systems says that Omni-Man will be released on November 6th to those with “early access.” What precisely that means is up in the air, but regardless, we could be getting the Viltrumite warrior in the game sooner than expected. But before we go any further, it should be noted that NetherRealm Studios hasn’t confirmed this release date, and “leaks” like these have been misconstrued in the past.

He goes on to reveal that Robert Patrick was present at the studio to do work for T-1000.

Ed Boon himself deconfirmed several things that wouldn’t be shown at the convention, and many felt this meant we wouldn’t get any look at the upcoming DLC characters for the game via its first Kombat Pack. However, NetherRealm Studios DID show something from the Kombat Pack at the show: the first look at Omni-Man! His inclusion in the game had long been rumored before it was officially confirmed alongside other key DLC characters, and his “first look” trailer shows just how brutal things will get.
