Mortal Kombat 1 General Shao and Sindel

Mortal Kombat 1 came back with a new trailer for Gamescom 2023, and it included a couple of reveals – specifically the inclusion of General Shao and Sindel.

Batman: Arkham Trilogy release date

A release date for Batman: Arkham Trilogy has just been announced. The package is due out for Switch on October 13, 2023.

Batman: Arkham Trilogy was announced in the last Nintendo Direct. Previously, it was given a vague fall release window.

Mortal Kombat 1 Reptile, Ashrah, and Havik

Mortal Kombat 1 isn’t slowing down on the character reveals, and has now announced Reptile, Ashrah, and Havik. This comes as prat of a new trailer released just a short while ago dubbed “Banished”.

Here’s the rundown straight from Warner Bros.:

Warner Bros. and Netherrealm Studios have chosen to showcase more of Mortal Kombat 1 at San Diego Comic-Con 2023, with a whopping nine new characters being revealed for the game. These consist of 3 new base roster characters, as well as the 6 characters available through the game’s first Kombat Pack.

For the base roster, we have Li Mei, Tanya, and Baraka, with Li Mei having her first playable experience since 2006’s Mortal Kombat Armageddon. Meanwhile the six characters available in the first Kombat Pack consist of Omni-Man, Quan Chi, Peacemaker, Ermac, Homelander, and Takeda. These six characters will be available as DLC content after the game’s release. Additionally, two new Kameo fighters were announced for the game, these being Goro and Darrius.

You can watch the two trailers showing off all of these new characters below.

Mortal Kombat 1 Lin Kuei

Mortal Kombat 1 just put out its latest trailer, with Warner Bros. and NetherRealm Studios focusing on Lin Kuei. The video includes a look at Smoke and Rain plus Cyrax, Sektor, Frost, and more.

As a brief recap, here’s what to expect from Mortal Kombat 1:

Batman: Arkham Trilogy marks another Switch release that won’t include everything on the physical cartridge when it launches later this year.

As previously reported, the collection includes Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City, and Batman: Arkham Knight (plus all DLC). However, according to the official FAQ, only the first title is included. Players going physical will need to download Arkham City and Arkham Knight in order to play them.

Batman Arkham Trilogy

Batman Arkham Trilogy was previously rumored on Switch following a listing that was posted by a French distributor. During today’s Nintendo Direct, Warner Bros. made the news official.

Batman Arkham Collection will include three games (Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, and Arkham Knight) plus all previously-released DLC. The package is set for release this fall.

Mortal Kombat 1 is perhaps the most jaw-dropping fighting game I’ve ever had the privilege of playing. And not just in a figurative sense, because there’s literally an X-Ray attack in which Sub-Zero skewers his opponent’s brain through their mouth with a shard of ice, rendered in a shocking amount of detail. Between the new Kameo mechanic, an increased focus on aerial play, and some of the most stunning visuals I’ve ever seen in a fighting game, this is a game that feels next-gen from edge to edge. That’s a polite way of saying: I have no idea how they are going to get this running on Switch.

Mortal Kombat 1 gameplay trailer
