Amazon Italy possibly reveals details of Mortal Kombat 1's Kombat Pack
WB Games announced Mortal Kombat 1 on Thursday, a re-imagining of the Mortal Kombat franchise that will feature new fighting systems and old characters "as you've never seen them before." Alongside the game's reveal, it was also announced that the premium editions would come with the Kombat Pack, giving players a Jean-Claude Van Damme skin for Johnny Cage at launch, plus six new playable characters and five new Kameo Fighters post-launch. As spotted by r/GamingLeaksAndRumours, it appears a listing on Amazon Italy (now revised to remove the offending content) may have accidentally revealed what will be included in the Kombat Pack. The following characters were included in the leak:
Playable Characters
- Quan Chi
- Ermac
- Takeda
- Omni-Man
- Peacemaker
- Homelander
- Tremor
- Johnny Cage
- Khameleon
- Mavado
- Ferra
The inclusion of Johnny Cage in the Kameo Characters is also interesting. According to a FAQ on the Mortal Kombat 1 website, the Kameo Fighters will be a "unique roster" and "chosen separately from the main roster of fighters." Elsewhere, the FAQ confirms Johnny Cage's inclusion in the game, though not explicitly as a playable character on the roster. The wording on the FAQ seems to imply that there will be no overlap between playable characters and Kameo Fighters, though it's possible this rule will be broken by the time the DLC releases.
Whatever the answers may be, we'll know more by the time Mortal Kombat 1 releases on September 19, 2023.
