A Trick on How to Finish the Sub-Zero Twice as Ice Combo Trial
by Roy Arkon on Sep 27, 2024 :: 0 As with the newest Season of Invasions in Mortal Kombat 1 (2023), we have a whole new set of challenges and bosses to defeat and a brand new story to complete. And of course, some challenges are gonna be harder than others.
Already in the first Mesa, the Rampart Mesa, we already have a very challenging tile which, while being optional, has been very difficult for some people to finish. This is the Twice as Ice Combo Trial for Sub-Zero with Frost as the Kameo. The main problem is that you need to finish the combo with S4 into Frost's Ice Krash Kameo move, and you need to do it super fast or else Frost won't reach in time to hit the cyborg.
Well there's a trick that yours truly has found that might help easing this Combo Trial. As it turns out, you don't have to do the combo in the middle of the stage, you can just go to the corner of the stage and the combo will still count. And of course, since the corner of the stages affects the gravity system in combos, this can allow Frost have easier time to reach the cyborg in time, so you can finish the combo.
Here is a video from my channel, showcasing the Combo Trial and the corner trick. I hope this one helps you as it did for me.

From the official press-release:
For the launch of the expansion, the team at Netherrealm Studios also held their longest Kombat Kast yet. It includes an overview of the new features, interviews with several team members and a deep dive into Noob Saibot's gameplay mechanics. Have a look:Developed by award-winning NetherRealm Studios, Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns continues the cinematic narrative with new Story mode chapters centered around peace and anarchy. To defend his New Era of peace, Fire God Liu Kang must rally his champions and put faith in his enemies to defeat a perilous threat from an alternate timeline, led by the ruthless Titan Havik, whose sole purpose is to plunge the realms into khaos.
Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns adds to the growing roster of playable characters with the return of Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot, who are available now as part of Kombat Pack 2 and incorporate unique backstories that fit within the reimagined Mortal Kombat 1 Universe. Cyrax is a young Lin Kuei warrior and martial arts prodigy who can leverage cybernetic technology; Sektor, a master armorer and skilled Lin Kuei warrior in her own right, is Cyrax’s mentor and Sub-Zero’s most trusted lieutenant; and Noob Saibot is a shadowy henchman created from Bi-Han’s (a.k.a. Sub-Zero) soul, dedicated to fomenting anarchy alongside Havik.
Kombat Pack 2 will also bring a new batch of guest fighters into the mix with Ghostface, the recurring identity donned by antagonists from the Scream horror movie franchise, voiced by Roger L. Jackson; T-1000, the liquid metal-based Terminator and deadly cybernetic assassin from the Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) film, featuring the voice and likeness of actor Robert Patrick; and Conan the Barbarian, the towering warrior from the Conan the Barbarian (1982) film, featuring the likeness of actor Arnold Schwarzenegger in the role of the title character. Release timing for the three guest fighters will be announced at a later date.
Additionally, all Mortal Kombat 1 owners have access to a free content update beginning today, including Animalities, the fan-favorite finishing moves allowing all playable characters to morph into their spirit animal to annihilate defeated opponents; Towers of Time, a returning mode with an on-going rotation of challenges and in-game events; and four new arenas – Chaoseum, Night Market, The Maze, and Havik’s Citadel.

Click here to read the entire interview.What about new Kameo Fighters? You haven’t announced new ones, but is that something you’re looking to expand in year two of MK1 as well?
Yes. To my fault, I guess I never really communicated it clearly outside of the team, but yes. To me, it would feel a little bit weird to suddenly just stop doing them, with as many as we have in the game now. I think that the mix-and-matches are interesting. I really love seeing players [coming up with] crazy combos with this Kameo and this main fighter. I think that just keeps things really interesting.
Mortal Kombat 1 (2023): Khaos Reigns launches today, September 24th, 2024 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PC and Nintendo Switch.

MK1 (2023) Khaos Reigns Launch Trailer, Towers of Time, Ghostface Fatality, Frost in Story Mode & More
by Roy Arkon on Sep 18, 2024 :: 4We 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.
