Megan Fox

More than a month after the game's launch, Titan Battles have finally been added to Mortal Kombat 1, meaning that the Platinum is finally actually achievable.

Subscribers of Amazon Prime Video can start streaming Expend4bles, the fourth installment in the Expendables franchise, from March 20 onwards via the Starz channel. Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, and Randy Couture reprise their roles from the first three films. Further, they are joined by new cast members including 50 Cent, Megan Fox, Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, and Andy Garcia. This film marks the last appearance of Stallone as the main franchise lead.

There isn't an official competition for 'coolest movie actor to appear in a fighting game' happening right now, but you would certainly think so. Aside from Jean Claude Van Damme and Megan Fox making appearances in Mortal Kombat 1, upcoming fighter Tekken 8 may have just cinched victory with its latest character reveal and the actor portraying him.

I think this tops the Megan Fox thing. Last week, Blizzard dropped an announcement asking fans to «donate to the blood harvest», allowing them to earn some in-game swag for Diablo 4. 

Blizzard has submitted a worthy entry for the year's most-unhinged PR stunt, raffling a Diablo 4 gaming PC "infused with real human blood" as part of a community-wide blood drive seeking 666 quarts by next month, which would require standard 1-pint donations from 1,332 players assuming no repeat entries. 

A new Mortal Kombat 1 trailer is here, giving us our first look at Omni-Man in action. From gameplay to new voice lines, the trailer shows us what will be added when the first DLC pack launches - including two new and incredibly over-the-top fatalities.

The first big patch for the fighting game on Nintendo's system addresses performance, visuals, and more.

Lionsgate has announced digital release for the latest installment to its all-star action thriller franchise, starring Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham. This comes after over two weeks since the film had its theatrical release.

Mortal Kombat 1 has been on many people’s minds since its launch. Sometimes, it was for a good reason, and other times it was for a bad reason. For example, the game’s launch was hyped, and critics loved the game’s looks, new story, the brutality of the fights, and more. However, if you had the Nintendo Switch version, you were out of luck quality-wise. Then, there was the fact that one of the biggest “stars” of the game, Megan Fox, turned out to be a total dud when it came to her voice acting. So fans highlighted how “good they had it” in the last game.

After spending the last few weeks roasting Megan Fox for her performance as Nitara in Mortal Kombat 1, fans are taking a dreaded look back at Ronda Rousey's infamous portrayal of Sonya Blade in Mortal Kombat 11.

Mortal Kombat 1 was an incredibly hyped game before its launch and for several reasons. First, every trailer they dropped hinted at the grand scale of the new world/universe being made for this “reboot” of the title. Second, the gameplay looked as brutal and violent as ever, and fans couldn’t wait to get more of it. Third, the trailers for the title looked beautiful, and fans couldn’t wait to see just how beautiful they looked on next-gen systems. The problem was that the “outlier” for the hype came in the Nintendo Switch version, which has been blasted online just as bad as Megan Fox’s voice acting.

Mortal Kombat 1 had a huge ad campaign, including but certainly not limited to a live-action ad featuring Dave Bautista, and bagging Megan Fox on the voice cast. But perhaps the most eye-catching of all was its ad spot on the MSG Sphere, something no one nearby would have been able to look away from.

There aren’t many action franchises like the Expendables movies.

Big names don't always make for big performances.

is getting the mobile game treatment, much to the delight of fans of the franchise. Wildlife Studios, which owns the popular mobile game, is collaborating with Lionsgate and Millennium Media to incorporate elements of the new movie into their online multiplayer game. Characters from the franchise will be available beginning on September 18, as well as weapons and other gear that will offer players a boost and entice audiences to dip their toes into the mobile world.

If you know anything about Ed Boon, it’s not just that he’s a great creator and visionary when it comes to fighting games and their potential. You’ll know by listening to him that he’s a fanboy. He loves putting in things within his titles that will make his “younger self” happy and has always pushed for bigger and better things to happen with the games he oversees. With Mortal Kombat 1, he got a lot of wishes granted, including finally getting Jeanne-Claude Van Damme in the title to play a version of Johnny Cage. But he recently revealed that he wanted more than that.

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.

I've loved the recent Mortal Kombat games, but if there's one thing they have not been good at, it's celebrity cameos. From Ronda Rousey as Sonya, to the Dimitri Vegas skin for Sub-Zero, to most recently Megan Fox as Nitara, more often than not the appearance of a famous face in these games means that you're about to be subjected to voice-acting more grisly than the fatalities. So I'm frankly a little horrified to find out that Ed Boon's dream for Mortal Kombat 1 was for all the fighters to be played by different household names.

Some fans aren't happy with how she delivered her lines.

NetherRealm Studios promised a hard reboot of the franchise in Mortal Kombat 1. While it’s clear the characters, story, and environments have all received updates, the developer also keeps what worked in previous games, refusing to tinker with the heart and soul of the title. In many ways, this helps the fighting game feel fresh in the right places but still possesses everything that brought it to the party to begin with. (It’s like experiencing passion fruit with Sprite rather than soda water for the first time.)

This fighting game series is getting more cinematic with each entry, so it makes sense the Mortal Kombat 1 cast list is stellar. It includes Hollywood talent like John Cena and Megan Fox. Additionally, there are talented voice actors like Steve Blum and Jennifer Hale on this project. Here’s the full Mortal Kombat 1 cast list.

Mortal Kombat 1 will launch without crossplay.

It's pretty much expected nowadays for the majority of the big fighting games to have some kind of cross-play support, what with them being primarily multiplayer focused experiences. Street Fighter 6 had crossplay at launch, as will Tekken 8 when that releases next year, but it seems like Mortal Kombat 1 fans will have to wait a little bit before they can go a few rounds with someone on a different platform.

NetherRealm Studios' latest 2D fighter, Mortal Kombat 1, is right around the corner. Premium and Kollector Editions of the game go live this Thursday, September 14, and the regular edition goes live next week on September 19. Ahead of the game's release, NetherRealm has released the official launch trailer, featuring four minutes of new gameplay, fatalities, gore, and more. 

The Mortal Kombat 1 launch trailer doubles as a Reiko and Shang Tsung gameplay trailer, revealing a first look at a pair of suitably gruesome fatalities.

Mortal Kombat 1 just got a brand-new launch trailer that finally revealed the long-leaked Reiko.

Mortal Kombat 1's Nitara reveal trailer features a surprising reference to a piece of MK history that many people have probably forgotten about - Mortal Kombat: Conquest.

We've had a bunch of Mortal Kombat 1 leaks lately, but this might be the worst one yet. Somehow, a content creator managed to get hold of a copy of the game early, and proceeded to stream himself playing the story mode. Spoilers are being shared online, so watch out for story details if you want to go in blind.

Mortal Kombat 1’s entire character roster leaked overnight, but NetherRealm Studios has turned the attention back to its own announcement cadence. It’s confirmed that Nitara will return to the series for the first time in almost 20 years – and not only that, she’ll be played by Transformers star, Megan Fox.

After sharing a sneak peek during a recent episode of Hot Ones featuring Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon, Netherrealm Studios has released a new trailer today spotlighting the Jean-Claude Van Damme skin in Mortal Kombat 1.

Warner Bros. Games has released a new Mortal Kombat 1 trailer featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Mortal Kombat 1 has finally revealed the Jean-Claude Van Damme Johnny Cage skin that was always meant to be, and it's come at the expense of series head Ed Boon and his poor, torched taste buds. 

Mortal Kombat 1 is gearing up to be a bit of a celebrity fest — what with the likes of JK Simmons, John Cena, and Megan Fox all putting in an appearance — but perhaps its most perfect addition is 80s action star Jean-Claude Van Damme, cameoing as Johnny Cage, whose in-game likeness has now debuted online courtesy of series co-creator Ed Boon and a bunch of chicken wings.

When Mortal Kombat 1 was announced in May, one of the first (and most fascinating) details revealed about the game was its inclusion of actor/martial artist Jean-Claude Van Damme making an appearance as Johnny Cage. Van Damme is partially responsible for the very existence of Mortal Kombat; he declined to appear in a proposed arcade game from then-developer Midway, leading MK co-creators Ed Boon and John Tobias to come up with an original fighting game project instead.

Mortal Kombat 1 has been on a roll since it started dropping teases and trailers left and right. With each one, we get a new look at the new world Liu Kang has created, and it’s an intriguing one, to say the least. However, that’s not the only thing people have noticed about the upcoming title. It’s clear to many that NetherRealm Studios isn’t just bringing in classic Kombatants to fight, but they’re trying hard to get some big-name celebrities of both the voice-acting community and Hollywood proper to help out. One such big name is Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Mortal Kombat fans will know that NetherRealm has been trying to get Jean-Claude Van Damme in an MK game foir quite some time, ever since the series first launched way back in the 90s in fact. Mortal Kombat 1 will finally achieve that ambitious goal thanks to its Van Damme DLC skin for Johnny Cage, which we've now been given our first look at in a new interview with series creator Ed Boon.

Even though ‘s early access launch is just a week away, NetherRealm Studios is still holding some cards close to its chest. It only just showed off Nitara, who is played by Hollywood star Megan Fox. And now it has finally revealed what fellow Hollywood actor Jean-Claude Van Damme will look like in the game as Johnny Cage.

Since its reveal earlier this year, Mortal Kombat 1 has been unveiling its star-studded cast, one big name after another. Between J.K. Simmons reprising the role of Omni-Man from Invincible to John Cena being confirmed as Peacemaker, the roster is looking to be fierce in terms of both fighters and their actors. Warner Bros. Games revealed one more member of the cast in September: Megan Fox, of Transformers (2007) and Jennifer’s Body (2009) fame will be playing the role of Nitara in Mortal Kombat 1 . 

Megan Fox is now the official celebrity of videogames where demonic monsters pull people's guts out. She made her bid for the position with a bizarre Diablo 4 marketing campaign that involved her eulogising player's deaths. Now, she's stepping things up by providing her voice and likeness to Outworld vampire Nitara in Mortal Kombat 1. Look, I can't fault anyone for finding their niche. 

Megan Fox is lending her voice and likeness to vampire Nitara in Mortal Kombat 1.

Exciting news for anyone who’s ever wanted to see if Megan Fox could take on Johnny Cage or Kitana in a fight: it’s been confirmed that the American actress is joining the Mortal Kombat 1 roster as the face and voice of the fierce vampiric fighter, Nitara.

Mortal Kombat fans are happy to see Nitara finally return after 17 years, but they're a little more mixed on her new design and want the "pirate" look from the 3D era to make a comeback.

The vampiress from Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance is backed by Hollywood star power.

It’s not every day that you get a legacy character from the Deadly Alliance trilogy. NetherRealm Games, and specifically Ed Boon, is known for creating and dumping characters as each new game releases, but it’s looking like they’re making amends with their upcoming title. We’ve already seen the return of Shujinko as a Kameo character, and rumors of other familiar characters are making the rounds on the internet. Will the Fire God Liu Kang find it in his heart to remake some of the more forgettable characters into powerhouses in his new world?

A new Mortal Kombat 1 roster reveal is here, and this one stands out. Not only is Nitara returning to the series as a playable character for the first time in 17 years, she's voiced by actor and '00s sex symbol Megan Fox.

Megan Fox appears to be in her gamer-girl era, and she’s showing no signs of slowing down. The American actress will voice the vampire fighter Nitara in Mortal Kombat 1. On Wednesday, developer NetherRealm Studios released a trailer presenting the character and showcasing Fox’s new role.

Mortal Kombat 1’s roster already has a few returning names from the series’ 3D era in the forms of Ashrah and Havik, and another long-lost favorite joins the fight. Nitara is making her long-awaited return, and it’s such a big homecoming that NetherRealm has enlisted actress Megan Fox to voice her.

NetherRealm Studios has released a new for the upcoming fighting game featuring Megan Fox.

NetherRealm Studios today revealed one of the final characters for Mortal Kombat 1, Nitara.

Megan Fox is the voice of the vampire Nitara in the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1, and NetherRealm Studios has shared a new trailer to unveil the roster's latest playable fighter.

Mortal Kombat 1 is almost upon us, yet developer NetherRealm Studios hasn't quite finished showing off its main cast of characters. We've had a drip feed of character reveals over the past couple of months, and the latest has confirmed that Mortal Kombat 1 will bring back Nitara for the first time in over 17 years. Not only that, but she now has a new voice actor too, and it's none other than Transformers and Jennifer's Body star Megan Fox.

NetherRealm Studios has released a new trailer for Mortal Kombat 1, confirming the return of Nitara as a playable fighter. Debuting in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, she’s a vampire and requires blood to stay alive but isn’t inherently evil. Actor Megan Fox of Transformers fame plays her – check out her thoughts and Nitara’s abilities below.

Nitara will be a playable character in Mortal Kombat 1 and is voiced by Megan Fox, publisher Warner Bros. Games and developer NetherRealms Studios announced.

Despite speculation, anticipation, and trepidation that actor-wrestler-nice guy John Cena might be coming to Overwatch 2, he is not. Cena is instead helping to promote Overwatch 2 — à la Megan Fox’s stint as a Diablo 4 hypewoman — and its upcoming expansion, Invasion, which will bring a new maps, a new game type, and the game’s 38th hero to Blizzard’s shooter on Aug. 10.
