A notable Mortal Kombat insider has acknowledged that Mortal Kombat 1’s future content material has been cancelled following poor gross sales of the Khaos Reigns enlargement.
Reddit consumer _FateUnknown, who has verified insider standing on Mortalkombatleaks, is the supply of the data.
The story begins in a Reddit thread wherein a consumer posted about whether or not a current Interloko video discussing potential DLC fighters for Mortal Kombat 1 was correct. _FateUnknown replied by saying, “It isn’t.” The OP requested _FateUnknown ifg there was even going to be a Kombat Pack 3, to which Unknown replied “no.”
The OP then created second Reddit thread specializing in _FateUnknown’s feedback, titling it “Guys….it’s so over.” Our insider then appeared in that thread to supply extra substantial data.
“Kombat pack 3 and a second story enlargement have been deliberate,” stated _FateUnknown. “All cancelled just lately, no extra characters after kombat pack 2. A kameo or two would possibly make it since there was work accomplished on them however i dont know but.”
When requested why the content material was cancelled, _FateUnknown knowledgeable followers that it was as a result of “Khaos reigns offered poorly.”
Certainly, developer Netherealm has been pretty fairly about Khaos Reigns. They haven’t supplied any data on how nicely it offered. Followers did choose up on how shortly the enlargement was supplied at a reduction although, a possible trace that it wasn’t promoting nicely at full value.
_FateUnknown’s claims about low gross sales wouldn’t be shocking although, as a result of Netherealm launched the enlargement for £40/$50. The earlier story enlargement Netherealm made for Mortal Kombat 11 was priced at £34.99/$39.99, which many followers already discovered costly. Nevertheless, Aftermath overview fairly nicely and most followers have been fairly happy with it. As compared, Khaos Reigns didn’t overview as nicely and fan reception was lukewarm at greatest, making the upper price-tag much more painful.
