Mortal Kombat 11 Adds The Joker To Its Roster
by Sage Ashford
Mortal Kombat 11 announced the latest character in their Kombat Pack recently; bringing the Joker to the popular franchise. With the more violent setting, Joker is allowed to go further, as he trades the crowbar for a knife and themed weapons. He comes with more comedic items like boxing gloves, a neat cane, and a Batman doll that fires rockets and bullets, among a bunch of other weapons.
In case the game wasn’t DC enough for people, Joker also comes with some new skins to add some additional looks for characters in the game. Reptile gets a Killer Croc skin, Noob Saibot receives a Batman Who Laughs skin, and Jade receives a Catwoman skin. Meanwhile, Geras gets to do some Darkseid cosplay. It seems although MK vs. DC completely and utterly fell through, Ed Boon has still managed to make a version of it work by splitting it into separate fighting games and utilizing DLC to give crossovers. Each time the MK characters appear in Injustice, they’re always some of the most popular characters for people to download — hence MK 11 returning the favor.
Joker comes to Mortal Kombat 11 for season pass holders a week early, on January 28th. For everyone else, it’ll be February 4th.
Mortal Kombat 11 is available now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
