Mortal Kombat 1 introduces a new character to the game, and fans are already convinced in a nearly 40-second trailer that he fits perfectly.
With a crossover, Mortal Kombat 1 aims to celebrate the premiere of the fourth season of “The Boys” on June 13, 2024. And fans are already convinced after just a few seconds of the matching trailer that this crossover works fantastically.
What is known? There is currently no more information about the crossover than what the trailer ultimately offers. However, it is clear that the character Homelander from the series will appear in Mortal Kombat 1.
The trailer shows you in the first few seconds the rather strange nature of Homelander, raising hopes that the game will capture the character quite well. In a few scenes, you will also get to know the brutal abilities of the character.
For example, he gruesomely burns the heads of his enemies with the lasers from his eyes. Or he expertly throws them in front of the next passing airplane.
You also get a first impression of the voice actor behind the new character. In Mortal Kombat 1, Anthony Starr, who played him in the series, will not lend his voice to Homelander.
It is not known when the character will be added to the game. Perhaps only with the start of the new season of The Boys.
How are fans reacting? From the reactions in the comments (via YouTube), it becomes quite clear that fans are convinced that Homelander will fit perfectly into Mortal Kombat 1. They especially express their excitement about how well the short trailer has already captured the character.
“Not this milk!”
Especially the first seconds where Homelander drinks baby milk seem to have convinced most of them immediately. “In that moment, I knew they got it right,” writes one user about the scene. “It’s really amazing how disgusted you can be by something as simple as watching someone drink milk,” is the opinion of another user regarding this.
Many comments can be found about this scene. However, many also simply write that Homelander fits perfectly into the game or note that the voice actor is doing a good job, although probably no one can portray the character like Anthony Starr.
