NetherRealm and WB Games have just released the official gameplay trailer for T-1000, set to join the roster of Mortal Kombat 1 next Tuesday. This character brings a unique flair to the game with his ability to transform into liquid metal, allowing him to creatively dodge projectiles. Fans of Kabal will find T-1000 particularly appealing, as he incorporates some of Kabal's signature weapons and moves, despite Kabal not being part of the game.
The trailer is rich with nods to the iconic film Terminator 2: Judgment Day. One standout moment is the recreation of the famous 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 embedding the character into the lore of the film.
Alongside T-1000, the trailer introduced Madam Bo, who will also be added to Mortal Kombat 1. T-1000's Fatality showcases his liquid metal capabilities, as he changes his appearance and efficiently replaces his victim, embodying the machine's mission to terminate.
No further announcements were made by WB Games, but rumors are circulating that this might be the final wave of new content for Mortal Kombat 1. Speculation suggests that a new game announcement could be on the horizon, though nothing has been confirmed yet.
