As part of the WB Interactive Entertainment empire; NetherRealm Studios have excelled as a free-to-play mobile developer famed for counterparts to their console fighting games Mortal Kombat and DC Injustice. Since 2015, they've also turned the wrestling world on its head in the over-the-top, mobile exclusive fantasy fusion: WWE Immortals!

Johnny Cage left the Hollywood backlot to enter the ring in a 2015 franchise crossover. Now in the next big Immortals challenge, a WWE superstar will be infused with the powers of a thunder god!

You might remember Xavier Woods from UpUpDownDown's tour of NetherRealm Studios, his various internet videos, or as one-third of World Wrestling Entertainment's bootylicious Tag Team Champions: The New Day! Thanks to WWE Immortals, he gets to live out the fantasy of becoming Raiden!

The Immortals challenge is part of a Mortal Kombat 25th Anniversary celebration that's putting the thunder god front and centre in all NetherRealm domains! Fans can also currently download Raiden as a playable character for the DC fighting game: Injustice 2!
