NetherRealm and WB Games have just released the much-anticipated official gameplay trailer for T-1000, set to join the roster of Mortal Kombat 1 next Tuesday. This character stands out due to his unique ability to morph into liquid metal, allowing for creative evasion of projectiles. Fans of Kabal will find T-1000 particularly appealing, as the game incorporates some of Kabal's iconic weapons and moves, even though Kabal himself is not part of Mortal Kombat 1.
The trailer pays homage to the classic film Terminator 2: Judgment Day with several nods. One of the standout moments is the recreation of the famous scene where T-1000 wags his finger—a gesture notably banned in the NBA for being unsportsmanlike. Additionally, T-1000 engages with Johnny Cage, inquiring about John Connor, further bridging the game with the film's narrative.
Alongside T-1000, the trailer introduced Madam Bo, who will also be added to Mortal Kombat 1. T-1000's Fatality showcases his ability to transform and take on the appearance of his victim, an efficient and chilling method to fulfill his mission.
No additional announcements were made by WB Games, leading to speculation that this might be the final content update for Mortal Kombat 1. Rumors are circulating about a potential announcement for a new game, though nothing has been confirmed yet.
