One of the best parts about Mortal Kombat 1 is getting to see the new trailers that drop and seeing what characters are not only shown but shown in a new light. The one that dropped at EVO 2023 revealed to us Reptile, Ashrah, and Havik. The latter two haven’t been in the universe for some time, and so it raises questions about who might be Koming next. However, NetherRealm Studios doesn’t just want you to watch the trailer to learn more about these characters. Instead, they dropped some background infographics on Twitter to read. You can check out the one for Reptile:

What’s important about these descriptions is that they give more clues about the differences Mortal Kombat 1 makes to the lore and how the characters look/act. These changes are prevalent throughout the known roster, and there are still more revelations to be had as we draw closer to the September release date!
