In just a few days, Mortal Kombat fans are in for a wild ride as Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns finally arrives! Set to launch on September 24th, Warner Bros. Games just dropped the jaw-dropping official trailer for this highly anticipated expansion, and it’s everything we’ve been waiting for.
The new trailer teases a deeper dive into the Khaos Reigns storyline, with a gripping plot that sees a dangerous threat emerge from an alternate timeline, led by the unstoppable Titan, Havik. With chaos threatening the realms, Fire God Liu Kang must call upon his champions and—get this—even trust his enemies to prevent his New Era from falling into disarray.
The trailer also reveals a brutal first look at the upcoming Fatality for guest fighter Ghostface, the slasher icon from the Scream franchise. He’ll be joining the fight alongside the T-1000 from Terminator 2: Judgment Day and the legendary Conan the Barbarian. These heavy-hitters are set to shake up the roster, bringing more bone-crunching action to the Mortal Kombat universe.
The trailer also showcases gameplay for fan-favorites Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot—ready to wreak havoc when Khaos Reigns lands. Plus, pre-orders come with an epic bonus: four new character skins! You can step into battle with Wedding Scorpion, Empress Mileena, and classic skins for Sub-Zero and Noob Saibot from Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3.
And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, Animalities are back! These iconic finishing moves let fighters unleash their inner spirit animal in a savage display of power, and they’ll be available alongside the return of Towers of Time—a fan-favorite mode featuring rotating challenges and in-game events. The best part? These features are part of a free content update for all Mortal Kombat 1 owners when Khaos Reigns drops.
Mark your calendars, because the chaos begins September 24th across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
