NetherRealm’s newest iteration of theMortal Kombatfranchise has proven to be very popular with fans, with many considering it to be one of the best in the series. And whileSmash Bros. Ultimatemay have set the precedent of releasing with every character in the series' history,Mortal Kombat11is steadily rolling characters out through DLC, after first giving fans some healthy teases.
Ed Boon, the creative director atMKdeveloper NeatherRealm Studios, has been releasing teaser images of upcoming characters for quite some time now, even posting animage of Sindeljust a few days ago. Now, Boon has released an image of Night Wolf, who will soon be making his way to theMortal Kombat 11roster. Night Wolf has made appearances in manyMortal Kombatgames, starting withMortal Kombat 3back in 1995, and is considered to be a fan favorite by many.
Boon had previously teased the character with animage of his tomahawk, a weapon that is pretty much synonymous with Night Wolf as far asMortal Kombatis concerned. Fans still haven’t seen the character in action quite yet, but he appears to be incredibly detailed, based on how good the image looks.
There are still plenty of DLC characters to come, too, so players that aren’t necessarily fans of Night Wolf shouldn’t have too much to worry about. Convincingleaks of aTerminatorDLC fighterhave surfaced online as of late, and there have also been rumors of Ash fromEvil Deador The Joker making their way into the game. As of now, those characters are only rumored, but at least NetherRealm seems committed to continuing to support their game.
There’s still no word on when Night Wolf will actually be playable in the game, but hopefully, it won’t be too much longer. Night Wolf’s fatalities have been relatively tame compared to many of the other characters in pastMortal Kombatgames, but it’ll be interesting to see what the developers cook up this time around. Hopefully, they still include a decent amount of spectral tomahawk.
Mortal Kombat 11is available now for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Switch.
