Mortal Kombat 1 is getting an exciting new character, Ermac. Ermac is the latest DLC fighter set to join the roster on April 16 for Kombat Pack owners. The rest can grab him from April 23.
Ermac is a collection of souls bound together by Quan Chi’s dark magic that are intended to function as a group mind. But that spell is temporarily undone when Ermac is defeated by Mileena and the mind of Emperor Jerrod takes control and rejoins the royal family, aiding Empress Mileena’s reign.
Eventually, the amalgam of souls reestablishes control, and Ermac retreats to Outworld’s shadows. No longer Quan Chi’s slave, nor bound to the royal family, he must find a future worth fighting for. In the new video, Ermac’s devastating moveset is on full display, including his ability to teleport, levitate, and utilize a legion of souls to grab, lift, and slam opponents to the ground.
Sounds bonkers right?

The trailer also provides a first look at Mavado. Mavado is a new DLC Kameo Fighter who can assist during matches with a range of support moves. He will be available as part of the Kombat Pack and standalone purchase in May 2024.
