NetherRealm Studios and WB Games have just dropped the official gameplay trailer for T-1000, set to join the roster of Mortal Kombat 1 next Tuesday. This character introduces a unique gameplay element with his ability to transform into liquid metal, allowing him to creatively dodge projectiles. T-1000 is poised to capture the hearts of players, especially those who were fans of Kabal in previous games. Although Kabal isn't present in Mortal Kombat 1, some of his iconic weapons and moves have been integrated into the game, adding a nostalgic touch for long-time fans.
The trailer pays homage to the classic film Terminator 2: Judgment Day with several nods to the movie. One standout reference is the recreation of the scene where T-1000 wags his finger—a gesture that, interestingly, is banned in the NBA for being considered unsportsmanlike conduct. Additionally, T-1000 interacts with Johnny Cage, asking if he has seen John Connor, further blending the worlds of Mortal Kombat and Terminator.
The trailer also introduced Madam Bo, who will be added to the game alongside T-1000. Fans got a thrilling look at T-1000's Fatality, where he utilizes his liquid metal form to change his appearance and take the place of his victim, delivering a chilling and efficient end to his mission.
No further announcements have been made by WB Games, leaving fans to speculate about the future of Mortal Kombat 1. Rumors are circulating that this might be the final wave of new content for the game, with whispers of an announcement for a new title on the horizon. However, there's no official confirmation of these speculations yet.
