The Most Informative Mortal Kombat Source on the Web

We are only 6 days away from the release of Mortal Kombat 1 (2023): Khaos Reigns, and while we are still waiting for the Kombat Kast to feature Noob Saibot as well as updates for Invasions mode and even more stuff, we now have the official launch trailer for the expansion. The trailer includes more gameplay footage for the additional Mortal Kombat characters, Noob Saibot, Cyrax and Sektor, as well as more bits and pieces from the new Story Mode chapters. In addition you get to see more Animalities, including a callback to Noob Saibot's Make A Wish Fatality from Mortal Kombat 9 (2011) and other finishing moves. Have a look:
Are you interested in a Spoiler-Free version of the Trailer? We have it right here:
On top of all of these, we got several major surprises in this trailer, so beware of spoilers moving forward. The first one at 01:54 mark, we see the return of Towers of Time. During the latest Kombat Kast, the crew at NetherRealm Studios hinted at some new updates for Invasions mode. So as of right now, we do not know if the Towers of Time are added to Invasions or a mode that stands on it own. We will probably have to wait and see in the next Kombat Kast.
Another big surprise is we get to see Ghostface, one of the new guest characters being added to the game, and we get to see one of his Fatalities. This probably indicates that Ghostface will be the first guest character to join Khaos Reigns post release.
The final surprise is that Frost will indeed have a role to play in the new chapters of Story Mode.

From the official press-release:

The launch trailer provides a closer look at the new Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns storyline, which continues the cinematic narrative centered on a dangerous threat that has emerged from an alternate timeline, led by the ruthless Titan Havik. To defeat this menace, Fire God Liu Kang must rally his champions and put faith in his enemies before his New Era of peace is turned into khaos for the realms.

The trailer also reveals the first Fatality for upcoming guest fighter Ghostface, the recurring identity donned by antagonists from the Scream horror movie franchise, who will be part of Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns alongside the T-1000 Terminator (Terminator 2: Judgment Day) and Conan the Barbarian.

Additionally, the video highlights new gameplay moments for Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot, who will all join the roster on Sept. 24 when the expansion releases, as well as four new character skins available as a bonus for those who pre-order Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns, including Wedding Scorpion, Empress Mileena, and klassic Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 versions of Sub-Zero and Noob Saibot.

Lastly, the trailer shows off a further glimpse at Animalities, the fan-favorite finishing moves that allow all playable characters to morph into their spirit animal to annihilate defeated opponents, and Towers of Time, a returning mode with an on-going rotation of challenges and in-game events, both of which available as a free content update for all Mortal Kombat 1 owners in conjunction with the Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns launch.

Mortal Kombat 1 (2023): Khaos Reigns launches on September 24th, 2024 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PC and Nintendo Switch.
