The Lin Kuei mercenary Sub-Zero has officially sent the island of Fortnite into a deep freeze! The hotly anticipated MK 'kollaboration' puts the cryomancer's skills in your hands and offers his services in the latest season pass! Take a closer look:
Sub-Zero is available in his widely publicized Ultimate "Mortal Kombat 3" attire, as well as a Bi-Han variant that brings a little bit of the clan leader's style from Mortal Kombat 1 to the massively popular online battle royale.
Sub-Zero is your ultimate reward for completing the newest Battle Pass, but you can also unlock frozen kori ice axes, dragon logo "Kombat Crasher" glider, Sub-Zero's frosty gauntlets to wield combos and ice slide with authentic Kombat Announcer, and even a friendly "Frozen Treat Cart" ice cream emote with emoji-style cartoon art of Scorpion and Raiden on the sides that's sure to make friends.
The Klassic Kombat set also includes a loading screen with artwork by Ryan Smallman which depicts an exciting, highly stylized rendition of a mirror match in The Dead Pool. A very cool addition for a very respectful representation of the Mortal Kombat franchise!
The fun doesn't seem like it will stop here. Rumors widely point toward the inclusion of Scorpion in a subsequent update, which according to social media speculation from Fortnite dataminer, iFireMonkey, will include: another mythic weapon that may enable uppercuts, airkicks, and a toasty fatality. No official announcements have been made by Epic Games, Warner Brothers, or NetherRealm Studios to confirm or deny this.
