The Mortal Kombat 11 esport event for this year, Final Kombat 2020, is going to be one of the biggest ones to date! The top sixteen kombatants will compete for their share of the $100 grand prize pool on March 8th in Chicago’s Park West Theater. During the event, there is going to be a lot worth checking out, especially for those who end up buying their ticket and heading there to see it go down live.
As far as Special Appearances go, you can expect to see Todd McFarlane (Spawn Creator and McFarlane Toys Creative Director/CEO), Keith David (voice of Spawn in Mortal Kombat 11), Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (voice of Shang Tsung in Mortal Kombat 11) and Ed Boon (Creative Director, NetherRealm Studios and Co-Creator of Mortal Kombat). Then there are those MK Kollective ambassadors Boss Logic (Digital Artist) and Alicia Marie (Costume Designer), and Jayn_one (Graffiti Artist), with additional ambassadors to be announced soon.
Then there are the reveals we can expect to be excited about. Such as the first gameplay trailer for Spawn, the next character to join the roster on March 17th, and the “Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge” Red Band Trailer. More will be revealed, but these two reveals are the only ones confirmed so far.
