Crossplay in Mortal Kombat 1: A Welcome Addition or ‘Too Little, Too Late’?
With crossplay already being a standard feature in popular fighting games like Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8 since their release, some Mortal Kombat fans have voiced their opinions that this update comes a little late. Nevertheless, the ability to play with friends across platforms is an essential step towards ensuring accessibility and inclusivity in gaming communities.
Mortal Kombat 1 Sales and Relevance
Back in November, Mortal Kombat 1 reportedly sold 3 million copies. Since then, the game has seen a decline in sales and chart position. However, consistent content updates, patches, and new character releases help keep Mortal Kombat 1 relevant in the fighting game community.
New Characters Joining Mortal Kombat 1 Roster
Starting February 28, 2024, two new top-tier characters will be introduced to Mortal Kombat 1. John Cena’s Peacemaker character will make his debut, with the man himself providing the voiceover. Additionally, a female version of Johnny Cage named Janet Cage will join the roster as an exclusive Kameo character – a supporting roster that jumps in to back up a fighter when needed.
