The epic saga continues in Mortal Kombat 11:
Aftermath, as Fire God Liu Kang, the new keeper of time and protector of
Earthrealm, must now enlist the help of unlikely allies and familiar foes to
forge a new history as the fate of two worlds hang in the balance. Adding to the
growing roster of playable fighters, the new expansion features the triumphant
return of Fujin, the God of Wind who serves as Earthrealm’s protector alongside
his brother Raiden, and Sheeva, the four-armed, half-human and half-dragon queen
of the ancient Shokan race. RoboCop, the iconic, highly advanced cybernetic
police officer will make his first appearance in the franchise, continuing the
pedigree of popular Mortal Kombat guest fighters. RoboCop in Mortal Kombat 11:
Aftermath features the voice and likeness of actor Peter Weller, who portrayed
the popular character in both the original “RoboCop” (1987) film and “RoboCop 2”
(1990) sequel. Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath will also include three new character
skin packs to be released over time.
Additionally, all Mortal Kombat 11 owners will have access to new Stages,
including the return of the Klassic Dead Pool and Soul Chamber arenas,
accompanied by Stage Fatalities, the fan-favourite finishing moves that use the
environment to destroy opponents, and the popular Friendships feature from the
‘90s, which allows players to take down their adversaries with a hint of
kindness. These features will be available as a free content update in
conjunction with the Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath
release.
