Mortal Kombat 1 fans are arguing about whether or not The Boys' Homelander looks "off" in the recent gameplay clip that was shared by Ed Boon on Twitter.

Since he was shown off, a lot of fans, such as Twitter user RainyJady, have suggested that his character model looks "off", with some pointing towards his smooth face and strange facial animations.
