The sale of over eight million copies of Mortal Kombat 11 is truly an impressive accomplishment, firmly establishing the game as a significant entry in the long-standing and brutally intense fighting franchise. For comparison, Mortal Kombat X, which was released in April 2015, holds the title of NetherRealm’s best-selling game with nearly 11 million copies sold. Mortal Kombat 11 has managed to reach the eight-million mark a year and a half after its release, a feat that speaks volumes about its enduring popularity.
When it comes to what’s in store next, there are speculations that a 1995 movie cast voice pack might be on the horizon. If the datamine that led to this speculation holds true, it lends credibility to a leak from a few months ago that mentioned characters such as movie Kitana, movie Liu Kang, movie Raiden, movie Shang Tsung, and movie Johnny Cage. Additionally, this leak also suggested that Harley Quinn, Smoke, Takeda, Michael Myers (from the Halloween films), Mileena, and Sektor could be upcoming DLC characters. The excitement is building, and fans are eagerly awaiting the revelations.
Not long now until we find out what awaits in the world of Mortal Kombat 11!
