Kombat Pack 1 arrives in Spring 2024!
Mortal Kombat 1 launched on September 19, 2019, with 23 primary characters and 15 Kameos. As with all modern Mortal Kombat titles, six more main characters and five Kameos are due to join Mortal Kombat 1 via the Kombat Pack 1 downloadable content (DLC). Here is the MK1 Kombat Pack 1 release date and what characters are joining.
MK1 Kombat Pack 1 release date and pricing
NetherRealm Studios revealed the Kombat Pack 1 lineup well before MK1’s release date, likely due to the overwhelming leaks. WB Games has announced that planned Kombat Pack 1 characters will start rolling out in November 2023 with Omni-Man and Tremor and continue through Winter, Spring, and Summer 2024.
On December 3, NetherRealm Studios debuted the gameplay trailer for Quan Chi and Khameleon. The two characters will launch on December 14, 2023, and sometime in January 2024.
It’s not clear how much Kombat Pack 1 will cost as of posting this. Those who purchased the MK1 Premium and Kollectors Editions will receive the DLC at no additional cost.
If Mortal Kombat 11 is any indication, the MK1 Kombat Pack 1 may cost around $19.99.
