NetherRealm Studios has absolutely bombarded the Internet with Mortal Kombat X announcements and trailers over the last few weeks, but that’s all about to end very soon. And that’s because Mortal Kombat X is only eight days away from its PC, PS4, and Xbox One release (PS3 and Xbox 360 owners will have to wait until the Summer).
Of course, that’ll just lead into a neverending cycle of downloadable content announcements and trailers. But since those trailers will include Jason Voorhees and The Predator, I’m OK with that.
Anyway, now that Mortal Kombat X’s launch is imminent, NetherRealm Studios has released an official “Launch Trailer” that is absolutely packed with kameos from some of the franchise’s most-popular (and not-so-popular) kombatants. There’s Noob Saibot and Baraka and Rain and Zombie Nightwolf and many others. They may not be available as playable characters (karacters?), but it looks we’ll find out what happened to all our favorites in Mortal Kombat X.
In addition to all the chaotic (kaotic?) kombat, the Mortal Kombat X “Launch Trailer” is back by System of a Down’s “Chop Suey,” courtesy of bassit Shavo Odadjian. Odadjian, for some reason, also directed the trailer.
