New Mortal Kombat 1 Trailer Spotlights First Gameplay of The Boys’ Homelander
New Mortal Kombat 1 Trailer Spotlights First Gameplay of The Boys’ Homelander; Upcoming Guest Fighter Arrives June 4 as Part of the Kombat Pack
Warner Bros. Games and NetherRealm Studios have released a new Mortal Kombat 1 trailer revealing the first gameplay for upcoming downloadable content (DLC) guest fighter Homelander. As featured in The Boys series on Amazon Prime Video, Homelander will join the Mortal Kombat 1 roster on June 4 as part of the early access period for Kombat Pack owners, followed by wide availability on June 11.
Homelander is the most powerful being on the planet and the leader of The Seven, the elite superhero team owned and managed by Vought International. In a world where “Supes” are made, he’s the strongest of them all. Homelander presents himself as the ultimate patriot and protector, but don’t let his movie star good looks or high approval rating fool you. He is a murderous, narcissistic sociopath with an insatiable need for validation, love, and power. Homelander’s destruction of enemies and lust for power does not end with his world. Challengers from other realms will also face his wrath. As seen in the new video, Homelander asserts dominance over opponents through his super strength, aerial attacks, and capacity to laser enemies with his eyes.
The trailer also provides a first look at gameplay for Ferra, a new DLC Kameo Fighter who can assist during matches with a range of support moves. Ferra will be available as part of the Kombat Pack and for standalone purchase in June 2024.
