She's the eagerly anticipated new character and she's coming to an Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) near you! Skarlet missed out on a spot in the April 19 box release of Mortal Kombat, but will be among the crop of DLC features coming soon!

IGN have the exclusive first-look trailer showcasing the "Lady in Red" in her gameplay debut! With a blood soaked moveset that would make Nitara blush; Skarlet appears unleashing various knife and blood oriented special attacks against the classically garbed gentlemen of MK -- themselves available in a DLC pack June 7 [full story].

Skarlet will be a feature of the booth when Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment appear at E3 in Los Angeles, June 7-9!

The long awaited, official arrival of the character ends a cycle of speculation that began in October of 2010, when Ed Boon tweeted a teaser image of Skarlet's leg [full story]. She has since featured prominently as the newest slave in Shao Kahn's Koliseum, before being attached to downloadable content alongside Kenshi.

The downloadable extras will begin June 2nd with the release of Xbox Live Avatar accessories and outfits [full story]. Skarlet DLC is expected to carry patches for online fixes and tweaks beyond the recent hotfix tweaks made to the game. News of the expected concurrent return of Kenshi remains unverified.
