Mortal Kombat 1 has unveiled two consecutive character reveals. Yesterday's esports trailer teased the T-1000, but the Terminator isn't the immediate addition to the roster. Conan the Barbarian takes center stage, launching next week for premium edition owners, with a gameplay trailer released today showcasing his brutal fighting style.
Conan embodies the classic powerhouse archetype. His attacks pack a considerable punch, but his movements lack the speed and agility of other characters. This might be offset by his extended sword reach. A clash between Conan and characters like General Shao, Omni-Man, and Homelander would be a compelling spectacle.
While visually reminiscent of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Conan's fatality lacks the impactful flair of some others in MK1. His acid-drowning finish is relatively underwhelming. However, gameplay is paramount, and Conan promises an engaging fighting experience.
Premium edition owners gain early access on Tuesday, while everyone else must wait until January 28th.
