Mortal Kombat 1 is keeping its bloody waterfall of post-launch DLC going with a list of new crossover fighters that includes Ghostface from Scream, Robert Patrick’s T-1000, and Conan the Barbarian.

Unfortunately, every character in the Khaos Reigns Kombat Pack 2 was known a month ahead of today's SDCC reveal thanks to a datamine leak. Still, the
