Mortal Kombat 11 announced

Mortal Kombat 11 has been announced. It comes out 23rd April 2019 on PC and consoles.

NetherRealm's next fighting game was announced at The Game Awards with a typically gory teaser trailer that saw series veterans Scorpion and Raiden killing each other over and over again, each time returning for more. There's also what sounds like the Gear system from Injustice 2.

Here's the official blurb:

"The all new Custom Character Variations give you unprecedented control to customise the fighters and make them your own. The new graphics engine showcasing every skull-shattering, eye-popping moment, brings you so close to the fight you can feel it. And featuring a roster of new and returning Klassic Fighters, Mortal Kombat's best in class cinematic story mode continues the epic saga over 25 years in the making."

According to the trailer, if you pre-order you get Shao Khan and beta access. A full reveal is expected in January.
