Mortal Kombat has been such a massive franchise over the years, and it’s also known for featuring several different crossovers. Plenty of IPs get represented in the game, and it’s never known what character might pop up next. When NetherRealm Studios unveiled Mortal Kombat 1 , fans were likely speculating which guest characters could show up in this installment. Today, we’re finding out that the co-creator of Mortal Kombat , Ed Boon, was at one time an attempt to get a crossover with The Walking Dead .
Mortal Kombat 1 Reveals Omni-Man Release Date
02.11.2023 - 16:17 / thegamer.com / Antony Starr / John Cena
Mortal Kombat 1 just released the first full Omni-Man gameplay trailer, revealing that he will be available from November 9 next week if you own either the Premium Edition or first Kombat Pack.
We see him dragging Raiden by his neck across the floor, dashing so fast he's practically teleporting behind his opponent, slamming them left and right by their ankle, and summoning giant hunks of rock to crush people with. We also get to see his and Tremor's X-Ray attack in which he pummels the other player over and over again.
Mortal Kombat 1's first Kombat Pack costs £34.99. The Premium Edition is £84.99.
There's also the subway fatality that we saw in the last trailer, ripped right from the Invincible show, ending with Kenshi's body slipping off in a gory, gooey display, leaving behind only his decapitated head. Then there's our first look at Tremor's fatality where he throws a ball that gradually grows into a boulder until it steamrolls his opponent.
There are still some mysteries around Omni-Man that we'll have to wait until launch to find the answers for. Each character in Mortal Kombat 1 has one customisable part of their outfit, like a mask, but what Omni-Man's will be isn't known yet. Some speculate that it'll be his facial hair, the emblem on his chest, or even his cape. The two trailers and key art haven't given away anything yet, so all we can do is speculate.
The other major mystery is what he's doing with that gigantic rock that doesn't fit on the screen. It's unclear if it's a victory pose or the beginning of a fatality we haven't seen yet, but based on his positioning and the black-and-white background, it's likely the former. There isn't a Kameo with him, which there always is during a victory pose, but we've seen footage in the past where Kameos have been edited out, so it's likely the same case here.
Omni-Man is the first DLC character to arrive in Mortal Kombat 1. After his arrival, we can look forward to Quan-Chi, Ermac, Peacemaker, Takeda, and Homelander. We know Omni-Man is being voiced by J. K. Simmons (who plays the character in Invincible), and John Cena is reprising the role of Peacemaker for the game. However, there's still no confirmation as to whether Antony Starr will play Homelander in the game as he does in The Boys.
When asked by fans on Instagram if he would be lending his voice to Homelander in MK1, he simply said, "mmmmmmm". Vague, but fans are still optimistic that we'll hear his voice in-game.

Mortal Kombat 1’s Homelander Won’t be Voiced by Antony Starr
Mortal Kombat games have a history of adding popular cross-media guest DLC characters over the years, many of which are often voiced by their original actors- though things don’t always turn out that way. For instance, though it’s been previously confirmed that Invincible’s Omni-Man and DC’s Peacemaker will be voiced by J.K. Simmons and John Cena respectively when they join Mortal Kombat 1’s roster, fellow DLC guest character Homelander of The Boys fame won’t be voiced by his original actor, Antony Starr.
