New MORTAL KOMBAT 1 Trailer Puts the Spotlight on Megan Fox's Character Nitara
NetherRealm Studios has released a new trailer for Mortal Kombat 1, and this one puts a focus on the character played by Megan Fox.
Fox takes on the role of a character named Nitara, and in the video, she talks about the character, why she joined the game, and what drew her to play the vampiric character. She also opened up about her experience voicing the character and how she’s been a fan of the franchise since she was a kid. She said:
“I grew up playing Mortal Kombat and I can’t believe that I’m voicing a character in the new game. It’s an honor to be a part of one of the greatest video game legacies of all time.”
The character Nitara first appeared in the 2002 game Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, which was initially released on the PlayStation 2, GameCube, Xbox, and Game Boy Advance.
It’s explained that the game “will introduce a reborn Mortal Kombat Universe that has been created by the Fire God Liu Kang, featuring reimagined versions of iconic characters as they’ve never been seen before, along with a new fighting system, game modes, bone krushing finishing moves, and more.”
Other characters in the game include Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Kung Lao, Kitana, Mileena, Shang Tsung, Johnny Cage, and more. Jean-Claude Van Damme will be featured in the game as an alternate skin for the character Johnny Cage. The trailer also reveals that General Shao and Sindel will be playable characters in the highly anticipated game.
Mortal Kombat 1 is set to release on September 19 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
