Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns
From the award-winning NetherRealm Studios comes Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns, an expansion that continues the cinematic narrative with new Story mode chapters. Titan Havik emerges from an alternate timeline and threatens Liu Kang’s New Era of Peace. The Fire God must rally his champions and gather new allies before Havik drags the realms into total khaos.

New Playable Characters
Khaos Reigns adds to the growing roster of playable characters, with Cyrax, Sektor and Noob Saibot making their return in Kombat Pack 2. Each character includes a unique backstory that fits into the current Mortal Kombat 1 Universe.
Play as the reimagined Cyrax, a young Lin Kuei warrior enhanced with cybernetic technology. Sektor is also a Lin Kuei warrior and Cyrax’s mentor. She is a master armorer and Sub-Zero’s most trusted lieutenant. Last but definitely not least is Noob Saibot, the shadowy henchman created from Bi-Han’s (aka Sub-Zero) soul. He is dedicated to spreading anarchy alongside Havik.
Kombat Pack 2 also brings a new batch of guest fighters. First is Ghostface, the masked murderer from the Scream films, voiced by Roger L. Jackson. Next is the T-1000, the deadly cybernetic assassin from Terminator 2: Judgment Day, which features the voice and likeness of actor Robert Patrick. Finally, there’s Conan the Barbarian, featuring the likeness of Arnold Schwarzenegger. The three guest fighters will be released at a later date.
