Mortal Kombat 1 Gameplay Reveal Date Announced for Summer Game Fest

Some assumed that the Mortal Kombat 1 gameplay reveal was slated for the upcoming PlayStation Showcase, given the proximity of the first real trailer and the showcase. However, that won’t be the case, as the first Mortal Kombat 1 gameplay will be at Summer Game Fest instead on June 8.

Geoff Keighley himself confirmed the premiere on Twitter. He’ll be joined by series co-creator Ed Boon, so it’s likely that it will be more than a simple trailer and come with a short interview explaining the mechanics. The Kameo Fighter system is just one of those new mechanics that NetherRealm Studios has only teased. The show also starts at noon PT, but it is unknown when Mortal Kombat 1 will appear during that two-hour event.

NetherRealm and Geoff Keighley have worked together for reveals a few times in the past. The two collaborated to unveil Mortal Kombat 11 during The Game Awards in 2018 where Scorpion’s spear cut through Boon’s tongue-in-cheek presentation of the award for Best Sports/Racing Game. Kratos was also revealed for 2011’s Mortal Kombat during the 2010 iteration of the Video Game Awards.
