He stated: “Just like we did with MK11, we’re going to release a second part with more story and we have a big surprise after that.” They will likely confirm more details about the future of Mortal Kombat 1 during San Diego Comic Con.
Takeda Takashi will be available for Mortal Kombat 1 on July 23 for Early Access players.
