“Raiden has upset the balance of history with the death of Shinnok,” reads the video’s official description. “Tired of Earthrealm’s defiance, Kronika, The Keeper of Time will bring order to the universe through any means necessary.”
This is something that had fans in a huge hype whirlwind following the initial trailer, and to see exactly how it impacts the player is a huge deal for those looking forward to the next step in the fighting game franchise.
As for the game itself, Mortal Kombat 11 will arrive on April 23rd 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:
