Baraka, for those that may not know, is as unpredictable as he is brutal. He was first introduced back in Mortal Kombat II as a warrior for Shao Kahn, though his return in Deception marked him has truly iconic. From seeing him in action in the video above, that viciousness that he's known for is back and bigger than ever and we honestly can't wait to get our hands on him once more!
As for the game itself, Mortal Kombat 11 will arrive on April 23, 2019 for Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PC. According to the Steam's official listing, we've got a lot to look forward to:
"Mortal Kombat is back and better than ever in the next evolution of the iconic franchise. The all new Custom Character Variations give you unprecedented control to customize the fighters and make them your own.
