The comic book villain is wielding all the powers of a Superman to dominate the kombatants of Mortal Kombat 1! The fight goes aerial as he flies into opponents for combination attacks and to grab heavy foreign objects, utilizing super-human speed to dodge the best his opponents have to offer!

Tremor is turning opponents' projects back against them with Kameo Fighter moves that will compliment plenty of players, wielding the elemental powers of rock to cause extra damage with brutal high-impact attacks!

The first characters from the Mortal Kombat 1 Kombat Pack will begin downloading November 9th. Players who purchased the Premium and Kollector's Editions of the game have access to the Kombat Pack.

Mortal Kombat: Onslaught Launch Trailer
A new story unfolds for mobile!

A new story begins built exclusively for mobile in Mortal Kombat: Onslaught! The long awaited RPG handheld app makes its official debut with an exciting launch trailer to tease the return of Shinnok and all your favourite kombatants! Watch:

The fallen elder god is pursuing important and familiar relics, including Drahmin's Face of Kun-Lo mask, in the hopes of presumably hatching his latest scheme.

Omni Man Mortal Kombat 1 Trailer Debuts at NYCC
Tremor joins Invincible villain!

New York Comic-Con is underway and where better to reveal the first look at one of three comic book guest characters coming to Mortal Kombat 1? Viltrumite superman Omni-Man has dominated entire worlds and now he's taking on the gods & titans of MK1! Watch:

Omni-Man has gained mainstream recognition as a villain in the Amazon Prime animated series Invincible, but it was twenty years ago that he first debuted as Mark Grayson's super-hero father in the pages of the Image Comics series of the same name. The trailer arrives to celebrate the anniversary of Robert Kirkman and Cory Walker's original creation.

If multimedia crossovers aren't your thing -- watch closely and you'll also be treated to a preview of MK's first downloadable Kameo Fighter -- the elusive Black Dragon mercenary: Tremor!

Possessing super-human strength, speed, invulnerability, and flight -- Omni-Man is one of a generation of comic book bad guys inspired by DC's ultimate hero: Superman. He'll be joined by another, The Boys' Homelander, as well as morally grey DC aquisition Peacemaker.

His heroic facade was dropped in an early big twist when he murdered the Guardians of the Globe -- revealing his true nature as a violent and callous conqueror from the planet Viltrum! Can Fire God Liu Kang and the other kombatants possibly stop him? That's up to you if you purchase the downloadable character included with the MK1 Kombat Pack!

The Kombat Pack includes five new Kameo support characters, bringing Tremor back from obscurity after his first main series inclusion in Mortal Kombat X. The kameo design reprises a rocky skin texture beneath the klassic quilted "palette swap ninja" design, despite Tremor never actually appearing in that. A yellow-ish hue does recall his first appearance as a sub-boss in Mortal Kombat: Special Forces though.

Warner Bros Rejected a Mortal Kombat vs DC Animated Crossover
Writer reveals failed pitch.

Mortal Kombat Legends have quietly become a regular staple for Warner Brothers animated features, alongside an established tradition of DC Comics inspired cartoon stories, but a crossover between the two was not to be - according to a new interview excerpt. Read on for details:

Johnny Cage takes centre stage in mere days when Mortal Kombat Legends: Cage Match takes the series into an imagined adventure set in neon-soaked nineteen-eighties Los Angeles, but things could've gone even further afield if a pitched crossover between the Mortal Kombat and DC animated universes was realised.

Jeremy Adams -- writer of the MK Legends series, seventies kung fu-inspired Batman: Soul of the Dragon, and Justice League: Warworld -- has told ComicBook.com that Warner Brothers rejected a pitch for a Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe animated crossover movie: "... I don't know if they're ever going to do any more. I hope they do, and I hope they call me to be involved. That would be great because I really love it."

I would lower your expectations. I don't know if they have any plans to do more. I do know that we pitched that a while ago, but it was kind of rebuffed.

The 2008 Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe video game crossover was the final title published by Midway Games before Warner Brothers acquired the Chicago based developer who became NetherRealm Studios.

Following years behind a partnership between Capcom and Marvel Comics established over multiple games; the eighth installment in the Mortal Kombat series proved highly divisive, falling short on plans to expand the game with Quan Chi and Harley Quinn DLC, and considered a low point for many die-hard fans.

Interest in a prospective follow-up crossover has been tepid ever since. In 2012, NetherRealm Creative Head Ed Boon noted the creation of Injustice: Gods Among Us made a crossover less likely, elaborating "we loved how our last Mortal Kombat game was strictly Mortal Kombat". A crossover sequel was shot down again in 2016.

Injustice received a loose animated adaptation in 2021, but that hasn't stopped the worlds of Mortal Kombat and the DC Universe meeting multiple times over the years.

Peacemaker will be the latest DC Comics hero to meet the MK fighters, entering Mortal Kombat 1 as downloadable content in The Kombat Pack. He follows behind Mortal Kombat 11's Joker, and Mortal Kombat guests in Injustice: Raiden, Sub-Zero, and Scorpion.

A full-on battle with Mortal Kombat has been off-limits even to comic books, but Injustice has found itself at war with Eternia in Injustice vs Masters of the Universe, and more recently in a revival of the lapsed universe in Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent -- a multiverse spanning adventure with Superman's son.
