In his posts, Boon highlighted that Mortal Kombat 1 has sold over 5 million copies and continues to be one of the most played games on PlayStation 5. “Our game is not dead, in fact, we’re just getting started!” Boon said, hinting at future DLCs.
Right now, the Mortal Kombat 1 community is buzzing with discussions about a mysterious new character named Floyd. According to leakers, Floyd, a pink ninja being added to the game, seems to have familiar traits from the series’ past. Data miners have leaked information suggesting Floyd’s special attacks and abilities are similar to Shujinko’s style. Boon has not made any official comments on the matter, adding to the fans’ intrigue.
Another key point in Boon’s statements was the mention of new DLCs for Mortal Kombat 1. While characters like T-1000 and Conan have been added so far, there have been rumors that Kombat Pack 3 may have been canceled. However, Boon countered these rumors by saying, “New characters are on the way!”
