In order to do so, he is forced to enlist the help of some unlikely allies and familiar foes. Players will have to decide who they can trust and who they must defeat with fate on the line. Forge a new history.”

In addition, there are three new playable fighters –  Sheeva, Fujin, and RoboCop. Available for all Mortal Kombat 11 players, there will be free content updates, new stages, and fatalities as well!
