More Mortal Kombat insiders have corroborated last week’s claims that Mortal Kombat 1 future DLC has been cancelled.
Rumors began to swirl at the end of November when FateUnknown, a known Mortal Kombat 1 leaker, posted on Reddit that the future DLC for Mortal Kombat 1 had been cancelled due to poor expansion sales.
Subsequently, two other Mortal Kombat insiders have since come forward to corroborate the rumor. One such insider is X user (formerly Twitter) @thethiny, who said, “The final insider has reached out and said that she also heard that there’s no more content after Terminator with a possibility of finishing what they originally had lined up since last year. Her KP3 list was also different. I have officially no hope left.”
KP3 refers to Kombat Pack 3, the next DLC to be released for the game.
As always, Ed Boon has refused to comment on the rumors, but Insider Gaming has contacted NetherRealm Studios for comment on the claims.
As previously pointed out by FateUnknown, characters from Kombat Pack 2, such as Conan the Barbarian and T-1000 from Terminator 2, are still to join the roster.

Is Injustice 3 happening? Why was it skipped?
The game was trash yo begin with. Ed Boon kept teasing Def Jam for years they need to do that next unlike Mortal Kombat that will make money.
I think too much time passed for Injustice 3 and people are tired of the whole evil superhero who’s good normally thing. If they make another DC game it should be new not another Injustice. Maybe use the Alex Ross art style that would look awesome get a good name to write the story like Peter J. Tomasi, Kyle Higgins, Johnathon Hickman, or Phillip Kennedy Johnson. Also maybe go 3D for a fighter.
Ed Boon has more time for trolling than he does running the studio and updating us on the game. Netherrealm is a horrible studio just look up all the complaints from sexual harassment, verbal abuse, and the mental health of employees being so poor because they’re forced to make Mortal Kombat and the gore had severely messed them up because they have to look at real photos of gore. That’s insane and sounds illegal. The employees need another walkout. Ed Boon and his team at the top are the problem.
The reason Injustice was skipped was because Ed wanted to make another MK even if it was awful and he hates DC it’s been clear for a while. Microsoft needs to go get John Tobias and help him make a new Tao Feng give that a proper single player story mode and maybe a Konquest like mode and easy money.
They should have made Injustice 3 over MK 1. I think we all saw the end for this game the cope is crazy tho. The question is what’s next what are they working on next? If it’s MK again that’s going to be a problem and it’s going to be bad.
Garbage ass game! No one wanted this trash except the shills like Maximilian Dood. They made a game for them and no one bought it. Worst modern day Mortal Kombat.
I think they should release another pack maybe if they weren’t so expensive $80 for the game and packs for $60 I’m buying characters nothing the whole game again. Bit do like the game grew up on these games and love to see more added and not end it like this.❤️❤️
I think instead of Injustice they should make a cel shaded arena fighter like for DC using the Glen Murakami and Jeff Matsuda art styles and David Slack writing the story. Maybe Eighting or Arc Sys should make it instead.
Ed Boon should be fired by now his behavior is very inappropriate and the garbage he makes.
Fans need to bombard Ed over his claims of a new Def Jam make that now that this garbage is over. Demand they make it honoring FFNY’s gameplay. He has time to post on BlueSky ask him about it and what their next game is?
MK isn’t popular anymore it’s time NRS close down. After this flop I think WB closes them and Rocksteady down by the end of the year. WB said they’d license out games it’s much safer and actually brings in income.
Tekken 8 is next and that new Street Fighter 6 trailer looks bad it looks last gen and Mai is supposed to be sexy. Capcom knows their games have been trash and not profitable. They over exaggerated Street Fighter 6’s sales and 5 made majority of its sales from discounts and fret to play days represented player count boosts.
Can you find out who the final Tekken 8 Season 1 character is and who the guest character for Season 3 will be? Please finally add Yujiro Hanma from Baki and Gojo from JJK.
Netherrealm needs to make a new Def Jam finally or a spiritual successor. Ed Boon teased it way too much it’s time to finally deliver give us that game instead.
Tom find out if Injustice 3 is happening
Super keeps claiming NRS is long into production of their next game and Ed told him this he just doesn’t know what the game is.
It’s simple just bring back Def Jam. Unlike MK a new Def Jam could go for a longer amount of time. No modern garbage just improve not ruin what Fight For NY did. Add a Konquest like mode to that game. The shop for create a character could be crazy with merch, music to purchase, and then longterm DLC would work for stages and characters. If they make another MK it’s going to be bad and too much time has passed since Injustice. Ed Boon should have stayed off Twitter if he didn’t want all this drama it’s his fault. The influencers too but Ed’s the one who enabled them.
