A new gameplay trailer has been released for Mortal Kombat 1 showing the upcoming DLC character Homelander in action.
The antagonist from the Amazon Prime Video series “The Boys” is set to be introduced into the Netherrealm Studios’ game soon, although a specific release date has not yet been announced.
The trailer for the acclaimed video game franchise is explicit, showing the character consuming breast milk – a rather peculiar obsession. In the first Fatality, he hits The Seven leader Liu Kang with his laser vision until he explodes Kang’s head. It also shows a scene where he delivers an uppercut that sends his opponent soaring into the air and directly into the path of a jet plane. As expected, the trailer has been age-restricted and is viewable directly on YouTube.
Ferra is featured in the trailer, although she isn’t shown in the gameplay. She is seen springing into action with a victory animation and perching atop a bag of severed heads. She will be the last Kameo fighter in Kombat Pack 1. Similar to Homelander, a specific release date for her has not yet been announced.
