The buzz around Mortal Kombat 1 is palpable, with many fans speculating that the current DLC lineup might be the final one, suggesting no new fighters will join the roster after the T-1000. Yet, it's premature to focus on that as we've just been treated to a thrilling new gameplay trailer showcasing the Liquid Terminator in Mortal Kombat 1.
Unlike characters like Homelander, who dazzle with their agility and aerial prowess, T-1000 brings a different kind of flair to the fight. His standout ability is his capacity to morph into liquid metal, enabling him to deftly dodge attacks and string together extended combos that can catch opponents off-guard.
True to the character's roots, T-1000's Fatality pays homage to Terminator 2: Judgment Day. In this gruesome finisher, he employs a massive truck reminiscent of the one featured in the film's legendary chase scene. However, the trailer keeps the full Fatality under wraps, both to sidestep an 18+ rating and to keep fans eagerly anticipating the reveal.
Mark your calendars: T-1000 will be unleashed into Mortal Kombat 1 on March 18, alongside a new Kameo fighter, Madam Bo. As for what lies ahead for the game, neither Ed Boon nor NetherRealm Studios have dropped any hints yet, leaving fans to wonder what surprises might still be in store.
