A leak for Mortal Kombat 1 has revealed that the game will introduce an exciting new single-player mode. Fans of the franchise are eagerly anticipating the release of this highly anticipated fighting game from NetherRealm Studios.
Last week, Mortal Kombat 1 delighted fans by announcing additional playable fighters, including the return of Reptile. Reptile appears to be fighting alongside the good guys, and was featured in the game's trailer alongside Mortal Kombat: Deception's Ashrah and Havik, who were also revealed as playable characters. With the storyline of Fire God Liu Kang creating a new world and offering a fresh start for the fighters, Mortal Kombat 1 promises to showcase familiar characters in unexpected roles. However, a new leak has hinted that there are even more surprises in store for Mortal Kombat fans.
Twitter user thethiny has uncovered exciting news about Mortal Kombat 1 - a brand new single-player game mode called Invasions. In this thrilling mode, players will embark on a journey through the vast Mortal Kombat realms, engaging in epic battles against powerful invasions each season. Although further details are not yet available, the leak has teased that Invasions mode will offer an immersive experience with a diverse roster of characters. Mortal Kombat enthusiasts will have the opportunity to carefully select their ultimate fighter.
The fighting game community frequently debates how the genre can go beyond 1v1 battles to engage its audience. This year, Street Fighter 6 introduced the World Tour mode, which adds an in-game RPG element. On the other hand, Mortal Kombat 1 will replace the Krypt with a new unlock system called the Invasions mode.
As the release of Mortal Kombat 1 approaches, more news and leaks about the game are surfacing. A recent leak suggested that Shujinko from Mortal Kombat: Deception will make a return as a Kameo fighter. Meanwhile, rumors are already speculating about the fighters that will be included in Mortal Kombat 1's second DLC wave, with the possibility of the iconic Noob Saibot making an appearance. Additionally, Geras is confirmed as a playable character in Mortal Kombat 1.
Ed Boon has stated that there will be no battle pass for Mortal Kombat 1. However, the recent leak has led some players to question whether the Invasions mode will include a season pass. NetherRealm Studios has confirmed that microtransactions will be present in the game, but specific information regarding their functionality has not been provided. Players are eagerly anticipating the upcoming Kombat Kast, scheduled for this month, in the hopes that more details will be disclosed. Mortal Kombat 1 is set to release on September 19 for PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X/S.
