Omni-Man Mortal Kombat 1 Release Date Confirmed Via Xbox Store
Xbox spills the beans on when the Invincible villain joins the MK1 roster.
By Jason Fanelli on
Omni-Man may be all-powerful, but even he isn't immune to information leaks. After his debut trailer was revealed at New York Comic-Con earlier this month, the Invincible villain is set to join the Mortal Kombat 1 roster on November 6, if the Xbox Store is to be believed.
The character's release window was confirmed to be November 2023 during the New York Comic-Con reveal, but the Xbox Store's listing for Mortal Kombat 1 has narrowed down the window. A message above the Kombat Pack button reads, «Purchase the Mortal Kombat 1 Kombat Pack now and get ready for Omni-Man early release on 11/6.»
Omni-Man retains his voice actor--J.K. Simmons, who played Cave Johnson in Portal 2 among other roles--and brawling fighting style in his Mortal Kombat 1 appearance. His two Fatalities, which were both shown in the NYCC reveal trailer, are ripped straight from pivotal moments in the comic and the first season of the Amazon Prime show.
The reveal from Xbox comes a few hours before the Xbox Partner Preview livestream, which is scheduled for 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET today. Games expected to make an appearance during that event are Alan Wake 2, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Ark: Survival Ascended, and more.
Mortal Kombat 1 and the Kombat Pass are available now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The rest of the Kombat Pass includes Homelander from The Boys, Peacemaker from DC Comics, and MK veterans Quan Chi, Ermac, and Takeda.
