Conan the Barbarian comes to Mortal Kombat 1 in January

December 10, 2024 by Gary Collinson

Mortal Kombat 1 is expanding its roster once again in January with its latest DLC, and as you can see by the brief teaser tweeted out by Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon, the new update is set to introduce the iconic Conan the Barbarian, featuring the likeness of Arnold Schwarzenegger from his early roles as Robert E. Howard’s fantasy hero.

Conan is being released part part of Mortal Kombat 1’s Kombat Pack 2 DLC, following on from Noob Saibot, Cyraz, Sektor, Scream’s Ghostface, and the upcoming T-1000 from Terminator 2: Judgment Day. The first Kombat Pack DLC included a Johnny Cage skin with the likeness of Jean-Claude Van Damme alongside crossover characters Omni-Man from Invincible, Peacemaker from the DC series, and Homelander from The Boys.

Take a look at the Conan teaser here, as the Cimmerian faces off against the Konqueror, Shao Kahn…
