The game’s Story Mode will freshen the old conflicts and bring new stories for a diverse group of robust fighters. Players can join well-known fighters like Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Kung Lao, Kitana, Mileena, Shang Tsung, Johnny Cage, and others.
Mortal Kombat 1 will include Kameo Fighters, unique fighters that can assist players during battles, adding more gameplay options. Players who pre-order the game on any platform will receive Shang Tsung as a bonus. In August 2023, those who pre-order on the PS5 or Xbox Series X/S will also get access to the beta. PC users won’t be able to access the beta.
