The Switch 2 has dominated the headlines for the past few days, but there were plenty of other things going on in the world of video games this week.
As for Mortal Kombat, NetherRealm has revealed an official trailer for Conan the Barbarian featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger's character, with voice apparently done by Chris Cox (the same guy who voiced Arnie as the Terminator in Mortal Kombat 11).
Mortal Kombat 1 Early Access players will be able to play as Conan from January 21, 2025 onwards (that is, next week). This character is part of the second DLC pack of the game which contains Ghostface (Scream), T-1000 (Terminator) and three Mortal Kombat characters found in the Khaos Reigns expansion.
“Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns expands Liu Kang's new era with a new story and an all-new cinematic experience. Discover how Liu Kang gathers his champions and puts his faith in his enemies as he battles the ruthless Titan Havik, who threatens to plunge the kingdom into chaos if not succeed, the New Era will be reduced to anarchy.”
At the end of last year, there were rumors that future DLC for Mortal Kombat 1 would allegedly be canceled. You can learn more about it in our previous story here on Nintendo Life.
Earlier this week, EVO also confirmed its main line-up for 2025 – Mortal Kombat will be one of eight titles presented this year.
