MK1 T-1000 Trailer Highlights Terminator 2 References

NetherRealm and WB Games have just dropped the thrilling official gameplay trailer for T-1000, set to join the roster of Mortal Kombat 1 next Tuesday. This character brings something truly unique to the table with his ability to morph into liquid metal, allowing for creative projectile dodging. Fans who were fond of playing as Kabal in previous entries will find T-1000 appealing, especially since some of Kabal's iconic weapons and moves have been integrated into Mortal Kombat 1, even though Kabal himself is absent from the lineup.

The trailer is packed with nods to the classic film Terminator 2: Judgment Day. One standout moment is the recreation of the famous scene where T-1000 wags his finger—a gesture that's actually banned in the NBA for being unsportsmanlike. Additionally, T-1000 interacts with Johnny Cage, asking if he's seen John Connor, further cementing the character's roots in the Terminator universe.

Alongside T-1000, the trailer introduced us to Madam Bo, who will also be added to the game. T-1000's Fatality is particularly striking, as he transforms his appearance and replaces his victim, showcasing the efficiency of this liquid metal assassin in completing his mission.

No additional announcements were made by WB Games, but rumors are swirling that this might be the final wave of new content for Mortal Kombat 1. Speculation suggests that a new game announcement could be on the horizon, though nothing has been confirmed yet.
