New Godzilla x Kong Concept Art Pits Skar King Against Kong

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is showing off concept art for Kong vs. Skar King!

By Nick Valdez

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire will be making its highly anticipated debut in theaters later this week, and some cool concept art from the film is giving fans a new look into the fight between Kong and the film's new villain, Skar King! Godzilla vs. Kong was already a massive hit for the MonsterVerse as while it started out with Godzilla facing off against Kong for control of Earth, the real draw was when the two of them had to work together to face off against a stronger enemy. Now that's going to be the main focus of the next major MonsterVerse entry. 

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire teases that Kong will reach out for help from Godzilla once more as he needs to defeat the Skar King, a much stronger monster than he had faced before. While we have yet to see what this will lead to in the film itself, Kong and Skar King face off within the Hollow Earth to help ignite the big conflict to come. Giving fans a new look into the upcoming fight, you can check out some special concept art for the film below as spotted by @KaijuNewsOutlet on X.
