Only thing I don't like is the protruding logo but otherwise good, hope they don't limit him to just the show and gives us skins of his older prisoner costume.
@@nickf.6027 Except this whole "mummy" thing only started in MKX, which has in my opinion the worst take on how Ermac should look like. He did not look like that in MK9 nor in MK11.
I think The Boys and Invincible in MK is more of an achievement than people realize. Both of their HQs were left in the sidelines for years while DC and Marvel thrived. Then the shows happened and now they somehow became mainstream enough that they take a center space in a MK pack lineup. It's wild. Also, petition for Max and the boys to watch Invincible kkkk 😆😆 It's honestly an amazing show.
yeah to be honest I felt like we were starting to feel burned out towards Marvel and DC even though they were released somewhere during the beginning of it. (even I was feeling a little burned out a few months ago the spider that I have plans to watch beyond the spider verse good movie by the way and also how I felt to watch Western media particularly animation and sometimes live action but that's a story for another day it always feels like a one-sided argument to me) although I would say invincible was popular among comic book fans despite image nowadays more focusing on anything but superheroes while I would say the boys wasn't that favorable until the TV show stuff at least makes it more interesting
You know what? The gory parts cutting to just Max's face makes me really appreciate some voice actors really pouring it on to make shocked and appalled horrific sounds, and some incredible foley work.
I hope that the way they make Homelander and Omniman play differently is that Omniman is 100% oppressive rushdown, and Homelander is a zoner, relying primarily on his laser eyes to carry him. Seems thematically accurate for both of them. Edit: Also I am VERY aware of the horrors of another superman eye laser character in an NRS game. Not thrilled for it, but it would be in-character for him.
That's what my brother and I were saying, and seems great for their characters too. Omni man is trained warrior, homelander is a bully. I do hope homelander has a little rushdown, bc I plan to main him
The zoom-ins on Max during the fatalities is so fucking hilarious. Having already seen the trailer, watching his reactions with just the sound and light flashing on his face is comedy gold.
I like on occasion text will say something like *They’re becoming friends* while you hear the sounds of mutilation off camera 😂 He didn’t do anything like that in this vid but he’s done it in MK1 videos prior
He was always brutal and fast, his movesets just changed from MK11, so not sure what all the shock and amazement is, his moves are just as quick in MK11.
I loved how he expressed his disappointment in the Kombat Pack, but then talks brings that sadness to not seeing the green skeletons from Quan Chi. And then he saved his biggest criticisms towards Ermac at the end of the video 😂😂.
I don’t think people realize, but the gameplay contrast between Homelander and Omni Man is gonna be amazing! One who’s more grounded and street level whereas the other one is more over the top and experience.
Yeah, people can hate on there being two "evil supermen" all they want, but just wait till they're both out, they are gonna be SUPER different gameplay-wise from one another.
@@VoiceFGCit does make me curious how they’re gonna differentiate the two. Also I wouldn’t go so far to call Omni man fully “evil”. Though at best the guy is insanely conflicted
@@VoiceFGCits a weird argument anyhow, its just a category of characters like they always do. Previously we also had two slasher characters and two gun using action heros.
also homelander significantly relies more on his other powers compared to omni man. hell he relies more on them then even superman dos. hes called a lazy fighter for a reason after all while omni man will use anything in a fight. he will grab a weapon, throw things at you, use bombs, blast you into things or let them hit you all just to win
The good thing about omni man and homelander is while at a glance they look alike. Homelander has heat vision and isnt super technical he just kinda overwhelms and blasts with his eyes. While omniman is brutal in a different way. I can definitely see omni man being rush down with brutal command grabs and homelander zoning and crazy Aerials
Heck yeah the home lander is kinda bad at fighting he just has raw force so him being kind of a keep away zoner makes sense, and omni-man is so brutal and used to being right in someone’s face he’s definitely gonna be some kind of grapple based in your face tank. Also if he doesn’t get an invincible color variation we riot 😂
I’m interested by the Peacemaker pick. The other two guests definitely makes sense. All 3 of these characters returning are nice especially Takeda. He was my main in MKX too and I have never been more happy to see him back
It's what's most popular at the time of making them, Invincible, The Boys, and for DC movie/series characters that would be fine getting fatalitied Peacemaker makes the most sense.
I still can't believe characters like Omni-Man and Homelander are mainstream now, if you'd have told me either of them would ever reach this level back when Invincible and The Boys were releasing weekly I'd have thought you were insane.
yeah come to think of it I'm kind of surprised they became a bit more mainstream although I would say they were released around the time when I would say maybe when it's starting we're starting to get a little burned out to watch Marvel and DC
As an Ermac main during my brief dip into MK9, I excused it in MKX because his default is literally just his godlike alternate in 9 without the mask, but this? We had such a good design tease in 11 that was probably a scrapped "ermac works for kronika" plot, but they tossed it and brought back the fatherless raisin. Also, I love how Liu Kang said the battle between good and evil is eternal, and then Ermac is the second nicest guy there.
If Friendships return, Peacemaker BETTER dance to Do Ya Wanna Taste It. Also the Tarkatans are now considered victims of a disease rather than a separate species. This rewrites Mileena's story to being Kitana's twin sister but instead of being created, she became infected with what has been plaguing Tarkatans. Hopefully down the lines, they can find a cure and that possibly means Human Baraka.
Something I thought of recently with all this: That Mileena and Kitana are twin rulers of Outworld, and their shared sisterhood and love together, was clearly Kitana's wish at the end of MK11. Liu Kang and Kitana went off to rewrite the timeline, and Kitana had a hand in this. This was it. Meaning she wanted some closure with her sister. She felt compassion and empathy for the Mileena she knew.
@@HuxtableK The only strange thing is Liu Kang keeping Mileena's Tarkatan mutation although it is rewritten to be a disease. Storywise, it wouldn't make sense to keep Mileena's mutation unless Kitana requested it. Although it just could be something that can't change as despite the new timeline where everyone is pretty much allies, Shang Tsung and Quan Chi are still present meaning Liu Kang had enough sympathy to not fully erase them.
Something to note about Edenians is they normally need weapons to do magic through, with Sindel being an outlier since she's stupid strong. Li Mei doing magic stuff without a weapon kinda gives credence to her new lore as the former bodyguard to the king.
A terrible concept on paper, but theyre executing it right so whatever. I was hoping he was a preliminary carrier of Tarkat, kind of like that MF from The Strain.
Im assuming in story Mileena is gonna perhaps get some sort of lesser dose or they stop it from spreading across her body. But it doesn't make sense her mouth is different from the rest as we saw at Kombat Cast. But I am curious if perhaps they dont stop it if in this timeline in the later games Mileena will get the arm blades and be a playable female Tarkatan
@iankevinsevilla I mean its obvious they have the same disease but i think Baraka had it longer since he seems to know alot about the disease while Mileena prob got it a little before the beginning of the story
It does feel like Netherrealm has been trying to steer many of the different color-swapped ninjas away from being a ninja. Like Ermac being a mystical mummy, or Reptile just being a lizard man. The only two characters who will always remain, ninjas, are Scorpion and Sub-Zero. Everyone else who's ever worn a ninja mask is getting redesigned to be maskless and ninjaless.
@1meen1 it definitely seems all the earth realm ninjas are one clan. Go watch the Lin Kuei reveal trailer (the reveal trailer has Liu Kang explicitly call sub and scorp "brothers" as he's describing the new world he built) scorpion puts a hand on Smoke's shoulder and says "we aren't bound by blood but we are brothers" anc Rain calls all 3 (Sub, Smoke, and Scorp) the Lin Kuei, and Subzero says "the flames of the Lin kuei can't be so easily smothered" That plus the Outworld factions seemingly merging (all outworld women are either Umagi or royalty now) tells me shits SIGNIFICANTLY different. Like it seems Kung Lao is now an edenian/Outworlder (he was in what seemed to be storymode cutscenes with Rain who then uses him as a Kameo) Also they never say Hanzo, Shira-ryu, or even Scorpion in the trailers specifically.
I remember when the first MK11 kombat pack was released, Joker looked really *weird* and a lot of people complained. Then when the character trailer later dropped, he had gone through a significant makeover, and looked WAY better. So I wouldn’t be surprised if Ermac (and possibly other characters) looks way different by the time he’s released.
I'd like it if they changed Omni man's costume to look more like a uniform and not spray on latex, but everybody else seems really happy with the design
Seeing Darrius as a kameo character is probably the most shocking thing about the trailer. Next they’ll probably do Kobra, Hsu Hao, or Jarek as kameos.
@@coffeebean_tamer Yeah, I prefer if they release each game with 1 year gap actually. Most of us regular FG enthusiast don't have time to grind to master multiple FGs in a short time.
Personally I want one of omni man’s fatalities to be a reference to his very first kill in the series (the one where he kills budget flash). It’s probably not gonna be the first choice but for me it’s one of the most iconic moments in any first episode
@@theskullboy8700 They said they reviewed the scene where he killed the Guardians of the Globe when talking about his fatalities. They also confirmed he would be voiced by J.K himself and not an impersonator. I personally think he'll definitely have the head crush along with the gut punch into head slice.
I want a Omniman head crusher or for him to either do the train scene or his final Beatdown he did to Mark for his fatalities. He’s such a brutal character, I’m hype for him the most
the fact that "tarkatan" is no longer a race, but some kind of disease or zombie-like mutation is such a brilliant twist and makes Baraka's character so much more interesting.
Darrius coming back even as a kameo was insanely cool to me, Li Mei was my favorite in MK Deception and i hope she still have her Fist of The North Star Fatality of MK Deception, Ermac is one of my favorite ninjas ever and Takeda coming back is amazing too since he's the only Kombat Kid i like.
I could be wrong but I don’t think this is the same takeda as before. None of the combat kids should even be born yet since the timeline got reset so o think this takeda is like the original takeda that’s one of the OG’s of the shirai ryu clan or he might be og scorpion hanzo cus scorpion in this game is actually kuai liang who is usually the second subzero after bi Han does and becomes noob saibot
@@jeremyroberts8822 I guess you haven't been paying attention to the leaks. The Kombat Kids will be in the story mode but they will be from another timeline and evil. Takeda is the same Takeda from MKX. The Shirai-Ryu does not exist in this timeline.
It's so cool to see a dlc lineup with Omni man, Homelander, and Peacemaker. Makes me think the theming of this dlc will be comics. It's so cool to see these once unknown characters get center stage in a fighting game. And little things like Peacemaker specifically being modeled after the John Cena version. Wonder if he'll voice act the character also.
Seeing Li Mei come back as a fighter was actually kinda cool, design wise she's a bit boring but nonetheless it was still cool to see her back outside of cameos. Kinda makes me wonder if they're gonna bring any other 3D fighters back. Darrius is there as a kameo, but two fighters I would like to see are Havik and Hotaru. I always thought Hotaru looked pretty cool and I wouldn't mind seeing him make a return. Hopefully in some sort of armor. Even as just a kameo would be neat too
My own fingers-crossed is for Ashrah. Simple and effective backstory, very cool look and fighting style, and could open up a Netherrealm story arc beyond "that place Quan Chi and Scorpion come from".
Homelander in the boys is so good. Whenever he was on screen I felt so much tension because of how powerful and scary he was. He would and can kill you in a second. I can’t wait to see him in MK
The weapon Tayna is using is a 3 section staff used to see them in some old Marshal Arts movies and TV series like Kung Fu. Takes quite a while to master.
The first line up of Kombat Pack looks absolutely Incredible. But I wasn't expecting to see Takeda return. Hope they got John Cena to voice Peacemaker.
Well supposedley Ed Boon said that they got J.K. Simmons to voice Omni-man so there is a chance we may get Cena voicing Peacemaker and hopefully Antony Starr voicing Homelander
The lore in this timeline is amazing. They make Tanya and li mei actually relevant again! This group called the umgadi are really cool and I hope to see how they fit into the overall narrative. Making the tarkatans a group of people afflicted by disease rather than a mutated outworld race makes their lore far more intricate, and, of course, more interesting when it comes to the story.
Nonsense. Tanya looks like a Appropriation of African Women and li Mei is the definition of bland. Tanya is a black Edenian, she's not African. She had a very striking and sinister look with her white eye's and passive aggressive manor of speaking. She was queen of deception. This (mk1) is Tanya in name only...
@@chrismarple fair point. But it's always great to see characters that go under appreciated get some proper love. Plus, Tanya in the story is practically a must-have if mileena is driving a plot point.
I’ll be real when the leaks got confirmed through this trailer I both laughed and kinda teared up! My boy Takeda is back and Homelander and Omni-Man actually looks incredible. They looked at the references they had and carried the characters over perfectly!!
Lol so hyped to see Peacemaker! Can't wait to his intros and victory sequences. If Eagly doesn't show up we've been done a disservice as well as if Vigilante doesn't show up as an assist character for him... lol
13:43 - Ermac's full facial design choice makes me a _LITTLE_ nervous about which version of Reptile we're gonna end up with, but especially with all the 3D era MK stuff. Both of those Ninjas are unbelievably cool, but they also have particular designs that make them… much weirder and less rad.
I’m not surprised at how much combo potential Baraka has, iirc, he was the original Combo King character back in Mortal Kombat (1992), so to see his lengthy and likely going to be rage inducing combos pleases me.
As someone who casually buys MK games when they're 90% off. Homelander and Omni Man dlc might bump me up to buying when they come out. Both amazing characters and I can't wait to see how brutal they make them. Also Eagly better be in the game
Fxck OMNIMAN, HIGHLANDER, and PEACEMAKER together. One would’ve been fine but 3! supers.. smdh Netherealm definitely should’ve saved these goofy mfs for their Injustice series. Wasted potential for unique guest characters or revived MK characters.
What i love about Baraka in this trailer is that he actually looks like a swordsman, his strikes are less manic and visceral. I honestly think this is a great choice for his character instead of being a savage tribe but a more compelling character that is suffering from an affliction. ALSO DARRIUS?? amazing pull Its kelly hu! Should of realized
I’m surprised at how excited everyone is for Takeda. I’ve always been a huge fan of his design and gameplay, and he was my main in MKX as well. I didn’t realize he was such a fan favorite character. One of the few post-MK9 characters they did justice alongside Geras and Kotal (for the most part lol)
just replying to this comment so everyone can see it, but was that motaro or goro at the beginning banging those drums?. Also Takeda looks insane with his look, interesting what his "backstory" or how he got there will be bc the Shirai Ryu haven't been created yet and Kenshi hasn't had any children yet. So interesting to see how his interactions with others will be as well.
@@abutteofpeanuts If the leaks were true (which is yes so far), this Takeda is actually Hanzo Hasashi. Takeda is no longer an actual person, no longer related to Kenshi, instead it is a mantle in Shirai Ryu, just like Sub-Zero and Scorpion in Lin Kuei. Much like Bi-Han is Sub-Zero, Kuai Liang is Scorpion, Hanzo now is Takeda. The MKX Takeda was the fan-favourite of the Kombat Kids, so with this new era NRS take advantage to retcon his entire character so that now Takeda character can be added in any game they want no problem, because he no longer restrict by this whole generations stuff.
@@RicochetForce oh ok, yeah i just realised that. Because i couldn't find the leaked screenshot of motaro and reiko till one of the mk youtubers that i watched revealed it.
@@shawziiz5031 what is the source? sorry if this question comes across wrong i just can't find any leaks on Takedas identity and i just have a few questions i was hoping the source could answer. Like why isn't he in the story if he is Hanzo Hasashi? or who is the founder of the Shirai Ryu/the creator of the mantle Takeda?
I'm so hyped to see how homelander and omni man interact and generally appear in game. They are such vastly different, unique and cool superman-lite characters. I had no idea they were gonna be in game!! :D
As long as they’re the only superheroes in the game. I’m gonna be very disappointed if guest characters in season 2 and 3 (if that happens) are superheroes or comic book themed. They should’ve spaced Omni-Man and Homelander out between seasons
@@OhNoJoshEdits im under the impression that they squished them into one pack so the later ones wont have super heroes. i could always be proven wrong with time but im choosing to be optimistic this time lol
@@OhNoJoshEdits I love the superheros tbh Spawn was an amazing pick and by far one my favorite dlc adaptations in a while. Imo we definitely shouldn't see anymore but the ones we got were incredible. If we do see more I think we should wait before putting it off immediately.
I don’t know what was more disappointing, Ermac’s design change or the fact that Quan Chi basically got no change at all. I’ve always felt he has the potential to look sick but they always keep him the same and they did it again. Other than those two points it’s pretty sick.
I think this and his more klassic skin look good tbh and considering how Ermac turned out I'm kinda happy he didn't get a major design change but I get where you're coming from since the others will probably have their older costumes too.
@@khalduras784she looked quite fearsome and badass in her MKX and Deception appearances. Them eyes without pupils really sold the mysterious aspect of her character but I see that they want to take her to a new direction but still.
Fun fact: the Kombat Pack actually comes with five other characters, including Omni-Man and Homelander. Unfortunately, none of you noticed apparently because you were too distracted by Ermac.
Omni-Man and Homelander we all saw coming of course, but Peacemaker is an interesting choice. Takeda also came out of nowhere; but will be a great addition. He looks older so I don’t think he is Kenshi’s son in the new era. He could have more of a classic Hanzo/Scorpion personality this time around.
Said once, I'll say it again, DLC being thrown in our faces before the game's release AND before we've seen the roster WITH OLD FIGHTERS THAT SHOULD BE IN THE BASE GAME IS *G R O S S.*
To each their own Max. Takeda is also my main. I'm loving the new outfit. I think the mask is a nice little nod to his sensei, Scorpion. It it looks dope as sh**!
The parts of the video where it cuts away from the fatalities and all we see is Max's raw and genuine disgust/reaction to the gore and violence is my favorite thing ever in these reactions. 😂
On the surface, Homelander and Omniman are similar, but if you dig deeper they are far different characters. I'm expecting Omniman to be a rushdown oriented character, especially because he has no heat vision or etc. While Homelander I definitely see being a zoner, probably focusing on his heat vision.
@@derickpelton3107 one is a generic evil monster and the other is a….generic…evil…monster…. One is a knockoff Superman and the other is a….knockoff Superman.

You know x and 11 were good, but this is the first time in many many years where before the game is even out I’m majorly hyped. All the characters they’ve brought back, the gameplay, all of it. For the first time in a long time fighting games are making me want to drop money to upgrade consoles so that I can play.
It’s genius if you think about the process of using these superhero icons and implementing appropriate moves that are not only strategic, but balanced for the rest of the roster move set
@@Dctctx I love both invincible and the Boys and even I agree they 100% are... Except they are way cooler in every way. Think about it this way they are both literally just evil superman
Although I'm not super hot on the guest characters, I will say Omniman, Peacekeeper and Homelander are perfect Mortal Kombat guest characters. Knowing a little bit about their source material, they can do uberviolence and it fits into MK greatly.
Watching Max React to the X-rays and Fatalities without actually seeing them is priceless xD I have to watch Max's reaction first then go find it myself to see what he was actually reacting to xD
Max doing his reaction to the new trailer for MK1 is so fun to watch since he confused Li Mei for Mileena. Then he like how he saids there is no Khameleon in the trailer, however he goes back at 6:54 to correct himself. Please Netherrealm studios make sure you have J.K. Simmons reprise his voice over as Omni man and Yong Yea as Homelander once again. His best reaction at 3:14, 3:32, 3:42, 4:02 🤣.
Man, they really know how to build hype around release. Seriously, one of best marketing in gaming in recent years. Literally everything WB releases, is pure hype.
@@A_mir0_0we haven't seen gameplay yet your probably assuming they both will probably play like Injustice superman when they most likely won't a good example is how they made joker play in mk 11 very different from how he plays in injustice so they are capable of making characters feel different
The zoom in on the camera while fatalities are going on is so fucking funny. Kills me every time. Also hilarious to me that whenever Quan Chi comes up, the MK4 arcade cabinet also gets brought up. 🤣
Homelander and Omniman should be very different. They both fly, are super fast, super strong and invulnerable and that's where it ends. Omniman is a ruthless, very old well trained soldier. He's disciplined, he knows how to fight better than almost anybody and his strength and speed is mixed with brutal efficiency. Homelander has never had to struggle or learn to fight, he's always been the strongest and always been able to get by through simply being invincible. He has laser eyes too, which Omniman doesn't. I expect Homelander's style to be more clumsy and boastful with taunts mixed in with a little zoning.
I will say Omni-Man and Homelander definitely have different powers; Homelander is basically a carbon copy of Superman, but Omniman is pretty much just overwhelmingly physically strong, no fancy laser eyes or anything
@@yeahboyz9314 The main difference will be approach, they're different characters. Homelander is a vicious psycho and insecure man-child. Omniman is a centuries old, disciplined alien warrior struggling between his fascist indoctrination and his compassion for others. Both will probably play differently, with Omniman being a confident brawler and Homelander being a keep-away bully.
The model for Omniman is actually perfect. Such a good 3d model, based on a cartoon look. Majestic mustache!
Now let's see it in motion lmao
I can't wait to see him and homelander in motion! I want their combo string is be fucking beautiful.

I’m interested by the Peacemaker pick. The other two guests definitely makes sense. All 3 of these characters returning are nice especially Takeda. He was my main in MKX too and I have never been more happy to see him back
It's what's most popular at the time of making them, Invincible, The Boys, and for DC movie/series characters that would be fine getting fatalitied Peacemaker makes the most sense.
Probably to fit the whole theme of fake superheroes who are excessive
Peacemaker makes sense, he’s a antihero from a bloody and mature rated movie and show and he’s a DC character who’s owned by WBD like NRS is
Peacemaker makes sense, he says he will kill anyone he needs to in order to achieve peace, which is the basic idea of this new mk
Hopefully we can use his helmet like in the show
I still can't believe characters like Omni-Man and Homelander are mainstream now, if you'd have told me either of them would ever reach this level back when Invincible and The Boys were releasing weekly I'd have thought you were insane.
yeah come to think of it I'm kind of surprised they became a bit more mainstream although I would say they were released around the time when I would say maybe when it's starting we're starting to get a little burned out to watch Marvel and DC
This is gonna be fun seeing Homelander and Omni man throw hands.
Baraka really looks sick.
His moves also seem to move him forward quite a lot.
Crazy corner carry.
As an Ermac main during my brief dip into MK9, I excused it in MKX because his default is literally just his godlike alternate in 9 without the mask, but this?
We had such a good design tease in 11 that was probably a scrapped "ermac works for kronika" plot, but they tossed it and brought back the fatherless raisin.
Also, I love how Liu Kang said the battle between good and evil is eternal, and then Ermac is the second nicest guy there.
If Friendships return, Peacemaker BETTER dance to Do Ya Wanna Taste It.
Also the Tarkatans are now considered victims of a disease rather than a separate species. This rewrites Mileena's story to being Kitana's twin sister but instead of being created, she became infected with what has been plaguing Tarkatans. Hopefully down the lines, they can find a cure and that possibly means Human Baraka.
Something I thought of recently with all this:
That Mileena and Kitana are twin rulers of Outworld, and their shared sisterhood and love together, was clearly Kitana's wish at the end of MK11. Liu Kang and Kitana went off to rewrite the timeline, and Kitana had a hand in this.
This was it. Meaning she wanted some closure with her sister. She felt compassion and empathy for the Mileena she knew.
@@HuxtableK The only strange thing is Liu Kang keeping Mileena's Tarkatan mutation although it is rewritten to be a disease. Storywise, it wouldn't make sense to keep Mileena's mutation unless Kitana requested it. Although it just could be something that can't change as despite the new timeline where everyone is pretty much allies, Shang Tsung and Quan Chi are still present meaning Liu Kang had enough sympathy to not fully erase them.
Highly recommend people who don’t know Omni-Man to look up his most brutal clips to understand how easy it was for him to make it in the game lol…..
Also helps explain why he works best in Mortal Kombat as opposed to Injustice. Same goes for Homelander.
just look up what he gets up to in the Invincible comics, it’s a better look at what they could do with him
If there isn’t a victory scene inspired by the think mark scene I’m refunding my whole purchase
@@theskullboy8700 Would you settle for quotes about the Think Mark Meme?
@@theskullboy8700 That could totally be his taunt
Omni-Man and Homelander being in the MK1 roster is literally my dream come true. They’re so perfect for the game.
All we need is the Doom Slayer now
I didn’t even know it was Ermac until Max pointed it out…
Totally agree, Ermac needs his Ninja outfit again
Something to note about Edenians is they normally need weapons to do magic through, with Sindel being an outlier since she's stupid strong. Li Mei doing magic stuff without a weapon kinda gives credence to her new lore as the former bodyguard to the king.
I like that they’re making Baraka as a mutant here rather than a born race. It’s an awesome concept where Mileena’s own Tarkatan mutation is a virus.
I mean i wouldnt call him a mutant bc he is afflicted with a disease but the forearm blades could be a mutation due to the disease
Eventually there will be a lot of mutants and then it will become a race.
A terrible concept on paper, but theyre executing it right so whatever. I was hoping he was a preliminary carrier of Tarkat, kind of like that MF from The Strain.
Im assuming in story Mileena is gonna perhaps get some sort of lesser dose or they stop it from spreading across her body. But it doesn't make sense her mouth is different from the rest as we saw at Kombat Cast. But I am curious if perhaps they dont stop it if in this timeline in the later games Mileena will get the arm blades and be a playable female Tarkatan
@iankevinsevilla I mean its obvious they have the same disease but i think Baraka had it longer since he seems to know alot about the disease while Mileena prob got it a little before the beginning of the story
It does feel like Netherrealm has been trying to steer many of the different color-swapped ninjas away from being a ninja.
Like Ermac being a mystical mummy, or Reptile just being a lizard man. The only two characters who will always remain, ninjas, are Scorpion and Sub-Zero. Everyone else who's ever worn a ninja mask is getting redesigned to be maskless and ninjaless.
I was saying this on twitter. Even with Sub Zero they tried to differentiate with the Samurai Armor one time
It also looks like in this "reset canon" they merged the Shirai-Ryu and Lin Kuei into one clan, which is kinda lame
@@1meen1 Your talking about the Shredder Sub-Zero from Deception?
@@darkpuppetlordful More thank likely just consolidated all the ninjas to one clan. Hanzo may be a Yakuza this time around.
@1meen1 it definitely seems all the earth realm ninjas are one clan. Go watch the Lin Kuei reveal trailer (the reveal trailer has Liu Kang explicitly call sub and scorp "brothers" as he's describing the new world he built) scorpion puts a hand on Smoke's shoulder and says "we aren't bound by blood but we are brothers" anc Rain calls all 3 (Sub, Smoke, and Scorp) the Lin Kuei, and Subzero says "the flames of the Lin kuei can't be so easily smothered"
That plus the Outworld factions seemingly merging (all outworld women are either Umagi or royalty now) tells me shits SIGNIFICANTLY different. Like it seems Kung Lao is now an edenian/Outworlder (he was in what seemed to be storymode cutscenes with Rain who then uses him as a Kameo)
Also they never say Hanzo, Shira-ryu, or even Scorpion in the trailers specifically.
I remember when the first MK11 kombat pack was released, Joker looked really *weird* and a lot of people complained. Then when the character trailer later dropped, he had gone through a significant makeover, and looked WAY better.
So I wouldn’t be surprised if Ermac (and possibly other characters) looks way different by the time he’s released.
I'd like it if they changed Omni man's costume to look more like a uniform and not spray on latex, but everybody else seems really happy with the design
True
all they gotta do is give ermac a mask and all is well lmao
@@DonathanXVI right! They listened on the Kano forward throw, so maybe they’re trying to get a pulse on major points that people dont like.
@@SeanBjerkeAll they have to do is give us that MK11 outfit from the krypt. So stupid to make a unique outfit like that and just waste it.

the fact that "tarkatan" is no longer a race, but some kind of disease or zombie-like mutation is such a brilliant twist and makes Baraka's character so much more interesting.

Yeah Darrius is a hilariously good pick, hope he has his dumb body art fatality in this game.
Cassie is better
I could be wrong but I don’t think this is the same takeda as before.

It's so cool to see a dlc lineup with Omni man, Homelander, and Peacemaker. Makes me think the theming of this dlc will be comics. It's so cool to see these once unknown characters get center stage in a fighting game. And little things like Peacemaker specifically being modeled after the John Cena version. Wonder if he'll voice act the character also.
I love the effects on Baraka's slashing blade attacks!😊
True
I personally don’t. Too much visual effects going on, makes me feel like I’m playing SF or tekken lol but that’s just me tho
@@heartbreakerkevv1380I agree I can barely see the blades. They gotta copy each other so much in the business world they so lame
It matches the aesthetic of the game I don't see how this is copying streetfighter yall love reaching
Agreed. It gives Baraka a certain flashiness he always kind of lacked.
Seeing Li Mei come back as a fighter was actually kinda cool, design wise she's a bit boring but nonetheless it was still cool to see her back outside of cameos. Kinda makes me wonder if they're gonna bring any other 3D fighters back. Darrius is there as a kameo, but two fighters I would like to see are Havik and Hotaru. I always thought Hotaru looked pretty cool and I wouldn't mind seeing him make a return. Hopefully in some sort of armor. Even as just a kameo would be neat too
My own fingers-crossed is for Ashrah. Simple and effective backstory, very cool look and fighting style, and could open up a Netherrealm story arc beyond "that place Quan Chi and Scorpion come from".

The lore in this timeline is amazing. They make Tanya and li mei actually relevant again! This group called the umgadi are really cool and I hope to see how they fit into the overall narrative.
Making the tarkatans a group of people afflicted by disease rather than a mutated outworld race makes their lore far more intricate, and, of course, more interesting when it comes to the story.
Nonsense. Tanya looks like a Appropriation of African Women and li Mei is the definition of bland.
Tanya is a black Edenian, she's not African. She had a very striking and sinister look with her white eye's and passive aggressive manor of speaking. She was queen of deception.
This (mk1) is Tanya in name only...
The change to Tanya was unnecessary though. They could have just made a new character and no one could have cared.

I am VERY pleased to see that Eagly is all over the place in the reveal! Shame we didn't get a Vigilante, BUT he looks awesome!
13:43 - Ermac's full facial design choice makes me a _LITTLE_ nervous about which version of Reptile we're gonna end up with, but especially with all the 3D era MK stuff. Both of those Ninjas are unbelievably cool, but they also have particular designs that make them… much weirder and less rad.
"The mummy Horny" took me tf out 😂😂😂
I’m not surprised at how much combo potential Baraka has, iirc, he was the original Combo King character back in Mortal Kombat (1992), so to see his lengthy and likely going to be rage inducing combos pleases me.
As someone who casually buys MK games when they're 90% off. Homelander and Omni Man dlc might bump me up to buying when they come out. Both amazing characters and I can't wait to see how brutal they make them.
Also Eagly better be in the game
Yes, I will get so hyped to see Eagly in this game.
Fxck OMNIMAN, HIGHLANDER, and PEACEMAKER together. One would’ve been fine but 3! supers.. smdh Netherealm definitely should’ve saved these goofy mfs for their Injustice series. Wasted potential for unique guest characters or revived MK characters.

@@Dctctx I love both invincible and the Boys and even I agree they 100% are... Except they are way cooler in every way.
Think about it this way they are both literally just evil superman
Although I'm not super hot on the guest characters, I will say Omniman, Peacekeeper and Homelander are perfect Mortal Kombat guest characters. Knowing a little bit about their source material, they can do uberviolence and it fits into MK greatly.

Watching Max React to the X-rays and Fatalities without actually seeing them is priceless xD I have to watch Max's reaction first then go find it myself to see what he was actually reacting to xD
Max doing his reaction to the new trailer for MK1 is so fun to watch since he confused Li Mei for Mileena. Then he like how he saids there is no Khameleon in the trailer, however he goes back at 6:54 to correct himself. Please Netherrealm studios make sure you have J.K. Simmons reprise his voice over as Omni man and Yong Yea as Homelander once again.
His best reaction at 3:14, 3:32, 3:42, 4:02 🤣.
Wtf Yong Yea as homelander where TF did that come from. They gotta get Anthony Starr
@@seanmartinez6908 he was the one that did the voice of homelander in the death battle with omni man I believe.
So excites about omniman
Man, they really know how to build hype around release. Seriously, one of best marketing in gaming in recent years. Literally everything WB releases, is pure hype.
Expect for their movies
Which Hype? The DLC pack sucks realy hard… 2 Superman like characters… yeah sure very GOOD….. fk me..
@@A_mir0_0cry some more your tears fuels us all 😆
@@A_mir0_0oh stop being a cuck. Omni man and Homelander are gonna be awesome and sell millions
@@A_mir0_0we haven't seen gameplay yet your probably assuming they both will probably play like Injustice superman when they most likely won't a good example is how they made joker play in mk 11 very different from how he plays in injustice so they are capable of making characters feel different
Omni man & Homelander is crazyyy
The zoom in on the camera while fatalities are going on is so fucking funny. Kills me every time. Also hilarious to me that whenever Quan Chi comes up, the MK4 arcade cabinet also gets brought up. 🤣
Homelander and Omniman should be very different. They both fly, are super fast, super strong and invulnerable and that's where it ends. Omniman is a ruthless, very old well trained soldier. He's disciplined, he knows how to fight better than almost anybody and his strength and speed is mixed with brutal efficiency. Homelander has never had to struggle or learn to fight, he's always been the strongest and always been able to get by through simply being invincible. He has laser eyes too, which Omniman doesn't. I expect Homelander's style to be more clumsy and boastful with taunts mixed in with a little zoning.
I will say Omni-Man and Homelander definitely have different powers; Homelander is basically a carbon copy of Superman, but Omniman is pretty much just overwhelmingly physically strong, no fancy laser eyes or anything
Still superman but without laser eyes
@@yeahboyz9314 The main difference will be approach, they're different characters. Homelander is a vicious psycho and insecure man-child. Omniman is a centuries old, disciplined alien warrior struggling between his fascist indoctrination and his compassion for others. Both will probably play differently, with Omniman being a confident brawler and Homelander being a keep-away bully.
@@yeahboyz9314Nothing like superman, maybe watch the show.
@@yeahboyz9314you're just trying to start shit with people in the comments huh lol
@@reaper.-._.-._.-._.-. I think he means in terms of archetypes, not necessarily having the exact same powers.
