Ed Boon Teases Mortal Kombat 1 News For This Week

thegamer.com:

Mortal Kombat 1 was leaked in an earnings call by Warner Bros. back in February, and since then, an unending stream of rumours about an official reveal has flooded the community. For months, many have read into creator Ed Boon's tweets as teases for news, while an anniversary celebration ended on a grain of sand from the hourglass, followed by a clock skipping 12. We're piecing together literal crumbs.

However, a new Boon tweet looks to hold more weight than others, as he simply posted, "THIS WEEK SHOULD BE FUN". Fans quickly got their hopes up for that long-awaited official reveal, whether it's Mortal Kombat 12 or the leaked MK1.

Someone in the comments pointed out that the way Boon tweeted formed the shape of an 'L', which he responded to with, "Please don't krack the kode. That would be a Kitana Krime." Some read that as Kitana confirmed, while others believe the 'L' to be the hands of a clock. Whatever the case, MK fans are in a frenzy trying to figure it all out.

We don't know much about Mortal Kombat 1 other than it's supposedly coming this year. When exactly isn't clear. Based on leaks and teasers, it appears to be another reboot, perhaps in Fire God Liu Kang's universe created at the end of MK11. Since we know so little, we obviously don't know what the roster will look like, but guest characters have been leaking.

Homelander, Peacemaker, and Conan the Barbarian are all supposedly coming in post-launch Kombat Packs if the leaks are to be believed. The series is no stranger to comic characters so this wouldn't be a first, as we saw both Spawn and Joker as guest characters in MK11. Peacemaker is also under the Warner Bros. umbrella being
