Mortal Kombat 11 drastically extended its lifespan with the release of Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath last May, introducing klassic playable characters and adding to the time bending storyline with an entirely new five chapter story mode. It was brought onto a new generation of console hardware in November with the release of Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate, which also offered Kombat Pack 2 and the final inclusion of three characters.

NetherRealm Studios have confirmed production on an unannounced new game, but kombat will continue as soon as next month when animated adaptation Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms is released to blu-ray and streaming.
