Mortal Kombat 1 is a 2023 fighting game developed by NetherRealm Studios and published by Warner Bros. Games. It is the twelfth main installment in the Mortal Kombat series, and serves as its second reboot after 2011's Mortal Kombat (2011). The game was released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S on September 19, 2023.

In addition to being a reboot, the game is also a sequel to 2019's Mortal Kombat 11, taking place in a new timeline directly created by Liu Kang in his ending of 11's Aftermath expansion.[5] In this new timeline, Fire God Liu Kang assembles a clique of fighters to participate in the latest Mortal Kombat tournament in Outworld while contending with an alliance formed by Titan Shang Tsung.

Mortal Kombat 1 received generally positive reviews from critics, although the Nintendo Switch version was criticized for its graphics and technical issues. The game sold nearly 3 million copies as of November 2023.[6]

Gameplay

Mortal Kombat 1 features a story mode, online multiplayer with rollback netcode, and offline gameplay. The game introduces a feature called Kameo Fighters, which provides assistance to the player during fights in a similar fashion to the tag assist fighters of the Towers of Time mode in Mortal Kombat 11 (2019). These characters are separate from the main roster and are chosen before each fight. There are two types of assists provided by each Kameo Fighter: Summons, which can be performed while the player remains in one place, and Ambushes, which can be performed regardless of what the player is doing. They can also be called to perform their own Fatalities and Brutalities. In addition, the chosen Kameo Fighter also affects how much health the players will have in a fight.[7][8]

Fatal Blows, first introduced in Mortal Kombat 11, returns with different functionality. These special moves can still be triggered when a player's health drops below 30% only, however in this game, they are performed as collaborative offensive moves between a player and a Kameo Fighter, with each delivering an attack in tandem. Additionally, the most significant attack performed during the Fatal Blow features the X-Ray effects seen in Mortal Kombat X (2015).[9] Also returning is the Air Kombat combo system which was featured in both Mortal Kombat (2006) and the action spin-off Shaolin Monks (2005).[10]

For single-player, the game features the return of the plot-driven Story Mode and the traditional form of Towers mode from the previous games, while introducing the addition of the seasonal Invasion mode, an online mode combining fighting mechanics with board game and role-playing game elements.[11] The players are tasked to move around the board while completing various challenges on each space they move to, earning rewards such as skins, in-game currency, or concept art for completing the challenges. Each Invasion season lasts around six weeks and has its own board and theme.[12] For multiplayer, the versus modes include Local mode to play a match on the same console, Online mode to play against opponents all over the world, and Tournament mode to host a tournament with a unified rule set for the matches.[11]

Plot

After defeating Kronika and Shang Tsung,[lower-alpha 3] Fire God Liu Kang uses Kronika's Hourglass to recreate the universe before relinquishing control of it to Geras to become Earthrealm's protector. Over time, he forms a tenuous alliance with Outworld under the auspices of continuing the Mortal Kombat tournaments. In the present, a powerless Shang Tsung struggles to make a living in Outworld as a con man until he is approached by a mysterious individual named "Damashi", who reveals his potential to become a sorcerer and that unseen forces are working against him. Meanwhile, Liu Kang recruits farmers Kung Lao and Raiden, struggling actor Johnny Cage, and former Yakuza member Kenshi Takahashi to compete in the latest tournament, with Raiden eventually being chosen as Earthrealm's champion and winning the tournament.

After learning from Geras that Shang Tsung has regained his abilities and is serving as an advisor to Outworld's Empress Sindel, Liu Kang tasks Kenshi, Kung Lao, and Johnny with investigating Shang Tsung's activities. They travel to Outworld's wastelands, where they encounter Tarkatans, victims of the Tarkat virus, and witness Shang Tsung extracting bone marrow from the Tarkatans' leader Baraka. The Earthrealmers intervene, though Shang Tsung escapes to his laboratory. With Baraka's aid, the group locates the lab and stops Shang Tsung from seemingly infecting Outworld's crown princess, Mileena, with the Tarkat virus. However, Mileena attacks them, blinding Kenshi before Shang Tsung injects her with a serum to control her Tarkat symptoms. Her sister, Princess Kitana, and General Shao arrive to capture the Earthrealmers. Shang Tsung misleads them before convening with his ally, sorcerer Quan Chi. The Earthrealmers are taken to the Flesh Pits, but escape with Reptile's help and encounter Ashrah, a demoness in search of absolution, who reveals Quan Chi is building devices capable of stealing souls on a massive scale. Though Quan Chi uses several souls to create Ermac, the group defeats them and destroys one of the soul stealers before all except for Baraka return to Earthrealm to warn Liu Kang.

Liu Kang orders Lin Kuei warriors Sub-Zero, Scorpion, and Smoke to destroy the soul stealers and capture Shang Tsung, but Shang Tsung sways Sub-Zero to his side by promising him access to the undead Dragon Army. As Scorpion and Smoke escape, Geras, upon further investigation, informs Liu Kang that Damashi hails from a parallel timeline.

With Li Mei's help, Liu Kang returns to Outworld to provide Sindel and her daughters with evidence of the sorcerers' treachery and reveal his influence on the current timeline. Shao attempts to ambush the group but is defeated and captured. The Earthrealmers and Outworlders ally to destroy the remaining soul stealers. Ermac attacks them, but Mileena defeats him, allowing the soul of her father and Sindel's husband, Emperor Jerrod, to manifest and take control of Ermac's body. Upon confronting the sorcerers, they are joined by "Damashi", who is revealed as the previous timeline's Shang Tsung. He reveals further that while fighting Liu Kang for the Hourglass, they fractured time, creating a separate timeline where he defeated Kronika and Liu Kang and became a Titan. Intending to absorb Liu Kang's timeline, he betrays the sorcerers and summons warriors from his own. Liu Kang's group narrowly drives them off, though Sindel is fatally wounded and appoints Mileena her successor before dying, with Jerrod absorbing her soul.

Forming a temporary alliance to deal with the threat, Shang Tsung hypothesizes that there are more timelines outside his counterpart's knowledge. Geras adds that he had stored Liu Kang's Titan powers should the need for them arise. As the others leave to destroy the Dragon Army, Liu Kang regains his Titan powers and reunites with his friends from the previous timeline to recruit forces for the upcoming battle. Anticipating this, Titan Shang Tsung summons an army of their evil counterparts. Following a grueling battle, Liu Kang's group prevails, allowing him to erase Titan Shang Tsung and his timeline from existence. After returning everyone he recruited to their native timelines, Liu Kang returns to his own to congratulate his champions over dinner before departing to assist Scorpion and Smoke in founding the Shirai Ryu clan and preparing Earthrealm for future conflicts.

In a mid-credits scene, alternate timeline warriors led by Titan Havik observe the aftermath of Liu Kang and Titan Shang Tsung's battle. Feeling it ended too quickly, Titan Havik vows to start a new, longer battle.

Invasions

With the revelation that multiple timelines co-exist with each other, Liu Kang secretly keeps watch over several of them to defend his own.

The Spectre

An alternate timeline variant of Scorpion named Hanzo Hasashi travels to multiple timelines to find one in which his wife Harumi is still alive and single so he can reunite with her and rebuild the Shirai Ryu. Following several failed attempts, he travels to Liu Kang's timeline and finds a living Harumi, who is married to her version of Scorpion. An infuriated Hanzo tries to destroy the timeline but is defeated. Nonetheless, Liu Kang sends him to a timeline where he died, and Harumi became Scorpion. The pair bond over their shared losses and join forces to fight her version of Quan Chi.

Blood Moon

A legion of vampires, led by a powerful variant of Nitara, discover other timelines and set out to liberate their kind and enslave all others throughout them. Upon reaching Liu Kang's timeline, they are eventually defeated, though they successfully convert his allies into vampires. Nonetheless, Liu Kang receives help from a heroic variant of Nitara to restore them.

The Cryomancer

A variant of Sub-Zero leads an army of cryomancers in attacking Liu Kang's timeline, intent on conquering it and killing those who do not share his blood. Eventually, Liu Kang and his allies defeat and kill Sub-Zero after he refuses to surrender, causing his army to dissolve. Though it will take decades to recover from the attack, Liu Kang is confident that he and his allies will be able to do so and defeat future multiversal threats.

Characters

The base roster of Mortal Kombat 1 features 22 playable characters in the form of reimagined versions of past Mortal Kombat characters, including several who have not appeared since Mortal Kombat (2006). An additional character, Shang Tsung, was offered as a pre-order bonus.[10] Six additional characters (guest characters are shown below in italics) for post-launch release via the "Kombat Pack" downloadable content, which also includes a skin for Johnny Cage featuring the likeness and voice of Jean-Claude Van Damme.[10]

Kameo Fighters are a unique roster of partner characters to assist during matches, creating expanded gameplay possibilities for players. The base game includes 15 Kameo Fighters, with an additional five planned as downloadable content. These characters are chosen separately from the main roster of fighters.[10] Some characters can serve as both Kameo Fighters and main roster fighters. Guest characters can serve as Kameo Fighters.[13]

Development

After ceasing support for Mortal Kombat 11 (2019), NetherRealm Studios disclosed that it was working on a new project in July 2021. Johnny Cage voice actor Andrew Bowen indicated that the 12th installment was in development in a hastily deleted tweet.[14] In February 2023, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav announced during a 2022 fourth-quarter earnings call that a twelfth installment in the series was set to be released later in that year.[15]

On May 18, 2023, NetherRealm Studios announced Mortal Kombat 1 with a release date of September 19, 2023. It is the second reboot of the series and is set in the New Era timeline created by Liu Kang after he attained godhood in Mortal Kombat 11.[16] NetherRealm Studios announced that those who preorder any version of the game for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S would receive access to a beta in August, and after the game launches, NetherRealm Studios would provide cross-platform play and cross-progression.[17] The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of the game were developed by NetherRealm Studios, the Windows version by QLOC, and the Nintendo Switch version by Shiver Entertainment and Saber Interactive.[10]

Marketing

In August 2023, Dave Bautista appeared in a trailer homaging the 1993 "Mortal Monday" commercial for the original Mortal Kombat (1992).[18] The following month, actress Megan Fox was revealed to be voicing Nitara.[19]

Release

Mortal Kombat 1 was released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S on September 14, 2023, for those who have ordered the game's Kollector's Edition and Premium Edition, while purchasers of the Standard Edition were able to access the game on September 19, 2023.

Downloadable content

A skin for Johnny Cage based on the likeness of Jean-Claude Van Damme is available as premium downloadable content; the developers had previously sought to have Van Damme portray Cage in the original Mortal Kombat.[20] The first Kombat Pack was announced during San Diego Comic-Con 2023, consisting of three returning characters from Mortal Kombat X in 2015; Ermac, Quan Chi, Takeda and three additional guest characters; Omni-Man from the Invincible series by Image Comics, Peacemaker from DC Comics, and Homelander from The Boys by Dynamite Entertainment.[21] Details for the entire pack were previously leaked through a listing on Amazon Italy.[22]

To coincide with the trailer for the second season of the Invincible animated series, actor J.K. Simmons was announced to reprise his role of Omni-Man from the series.[23] In August 2023, voice actor Jamieson Price was revealed to be reprising his role of Ermac from Mortal Kombat X.[24] Later that same month during Gamescom 2023, Boon confirmed John Cena would voice Peacemaker, after portraying the character from both The Suicide Squad film and the Peacemaker television series.[25] Shortly around the game's release, Ed Boon revealed that there was an attempt to get John Wick as a potential guest character, alongside actor Keanu Reeves as a skin for Kenshi.[26] In November 2023, actor Antony Starr revealed he would not be reprising his role as Homelander from The Boys TV series for the DLC through an Instagram comment.[27] Moreover, Ed Boon revealed there was an attempt to get Michonne from The Walking Dead as a guest character before they went with Omni-Man.[28]

Mortal Kombat 1 received "generally favorable reviews" from critics, according to review aggregator Metacritic.[29][30][31] 88% of critics recommended the game on review aggregator OpenCritic.[32]

The Nintendo Switch version was critically panned upon release for its poor graphical quality, extensive load times, poor performance, and numerous bugs.[41][42] Mitchell Saltzman of IGN, who had given the version on PlayStation 5 an 8 out of 10,[53] gave the Switch port a 3, stating, "There's a hint of a great fighting game still peeking through the blurry backgrounds, but its horrendous load times, inconsistent framerate, muddy visuals, and plethora of bugs make the Switch version an altogether aggravating way to play what is a great fighting game on other platforms."[54]

Sales

On January 27, Warner Bros. Games announced that Mortal Kombat 1 has sold 3 million units.[55]
