Welcome back WormholeRiders, Gamers, and San Diego Comic-Con Lovers!
Last year we interviewed the creative talent in Mortal Kombat 1 30th Anniversary and reviewed Mortal Kombat 1, also known as MK1.
Courtesy of Warner Brothers Games via Gary Miereanu this year we were honored to be invited back to interview Ed Boon Chief Creative Officer of NetherRealm Studios, Kaiji Tang, and Erika Ishii who portray characters in the upcoming release of Mortal Kombat 1 Khaos Reigns that releases this month on September 24, 2024.
Mortal Kombat 1 Khaos Reigns is a 2024 addition with a to the series of fighting video games originally developed by Midway Games in 1992 and the original Mortal Kombat movie released in 1995 that was developed by NetherRealm Studios and published by Warner Brothers Games on September 19, 2023.
MK1 Khaos Realms is the thirteenth installment in the legendary Mortal Kombat game that has been released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S.
We contacted video game guru Lord StarKillerXSX01 on X (Twitter) subsequent to last years MK1 30th Anniversary game release to discuss the Khaos Realms and the Kombat Pack that will be released on the 24th of this month.
The game play focus is on repelling the invaders who endangered Fire God Liu Kang’s New Era of peace, Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns expands the story campaign with an all-new cinematic narrative. When a perilous threat arrives from an alternate timeline, led by the ruthless Titan Havik whose sole mission is to throw the realms into khaos, Liu Kang must rally his champions and put faith in his enemies to defeat this grave danger. If they fail, the New Era will be reduced to anarchy. Lord StarKillerXSX01, a video game expert has played video games on all video game platforms dating back over 40 years shared with us that Khaos Reigns is a back story that adds to the mythology of Mortal Kombat.
MK1 Khaos Reigns adding exciting new characters to the growing roster of playable fighters, Kombat Pack 2 features returning kombatants Noob Saibot, voiced by Kaiji Tang; Cyrax, voiced by Enuka Okuma; and Sektor, voiced by Erika Ishii, all with unique backstories as part of the reimagined Mortal Kombat 1 Universe. As Sub-Zero, Bi-Han was the Lin Kuei’s ruthless Grandmaster, but his soul was stolen by Titan Havik to create the perfect henchman, Noob Saibot, who is now dedicated to fomenting anarchy. Born into the Zaki, one of the Lin Kuei’s many sub-clans, Cyrax became a martial arts prodigy with an independent streak and untamed desire to serve the clan on her terms, or not at all. Growing up immersed in Lin Kuei culture under the tutelage of her parents, Sektor becomes a master armorer, skilled warrior, and Sub-Zero’s most trusted lieutenant, committed to advancing the clan’s future at all costs.
Kombat Pack 2 also brings 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.
Additionally, Animalities, the fan-favorite finishing moves will be returning as a free content update for all Mortal Kombat 1 owners. Allowing characters to morph into their spirit animal to annihilate defeated opponents, Animalities can be performed by all playable fighters and will be available in conjunction with the Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns release. Furthermore, all owners of Mortal Kombat 1 will receive a free MK 95 Scorpion character skin, inspired by the original Mortal Kombat (1995) film.
