According to an anonymous user named billbil-kun, who has had numerous accurate scoops in the past, the next Mortal Kombat game is going to formally be called “Mortal Kombat 1”. This name is one that NetherRealm Studios itself teased in the past day when it tweeted out a video of a clock that saw the seconds hand jumping from 11 to one and skipping 12 in the process. Assuming that this title is legitimate, it adds further credence to the idea that the next Mortal Kombat entry will look to reboot the series as a whole.
Other than this Mortal Kombat 1 title, billbil-kun also stated that the game will be coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, PC, and Nintendo Switch platforms. It will then retail for $69.99 at its baseline price and will be available in three different iterations which includes a $250 “Kollector’s” Edition. Beyond this, it was also said that the official reveal of Mortal Kombat 1 “should be close” but no specific windows or dates for such an announcement were given. As such, we’ll be sure to keep you in the loop here on ComicBook.com if NetherRealm and WB happen to unveil anything new about Mortal Kombat 1 in the near future.
