Homelander, Peacemaker and franchise fan-favorites heading to Mortal Kombat 1

July 22, 2023 by EJ Moreno

The rumors are true: the most brutal “heroes” will enter Mortal Kombat. In a new DLC Pack Roster reveal trailer, we got our first look at the upcoming guest stars for the Mortal Kombat 1 reboot game.

Revealed at SDCC 2023, Homelander from The Boys, Peacemaker from the DC Universe, and Omni-Man from Invincible will appear in the upcoming game. Homelander will be based on Antony Starr’s appearance in The Boys television series, while Peacemaker will follow the character established by John Cena & James Gunn.

Not to be outshined by its guests, Mortal Kombat 1 will also feature some MK veterans like Quan Chi, Ermac, and Takeda. They’ll join Tanya, Li Mei, Baraka, Darrius, and Khameleon, also revealed in a trailer this week. Check out the trailers below…
