Guest Fighter Omni-Man Smashes Into ‘Mortal Kombat 1’ Next Month [Trailer]
Mortal Kombat 1 fans waiting for the guest Kombat Pack fighters to arrive have gotten a taste of what’s to come with a new gameplay trailer, showcasing upcoming guest fighter Omni-Man. Inspired by the Invincible comic book and Amazon Prime animated series, Omni-Man is once again voiced by J. K. Simmons, and is expected to arrive for Mortal Kombat 1 in November as first playable character in the Kombat Pack.
The new trailer also shows off Tremor as a DLC Kameo Fighter who will also be available as part of the Kombat Pack. And yes, we get a couple of references to the Invincible animated series, including Omni-Man’s fatalities, which are directly lifted from the show.
Still to come for the Kombat Pack are Quan Chi, Ermac and Takeda Takahashi, with guest characters Peacemaker (based on his appearance in The Suicide Squad & “Peacemaker” series), and Homelander (based on the character’s appearance in “The Boys”). Still no word on if John Cena and Antony Starr will be providing their voices for their respective characters.
And if the guest characters won’t do it for you, the Kombat Pack also includes a Johnny Cage skin featuring the voice and likeness of Jean-Claude Van Damme, who inspired the Johnny Cage character.
Mortal Kombat 1 is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Upcoming “Unholy Alliance” Update for ‘Cult of the Lamb’ Adds Local Co-op and More [Teaser]
Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.
With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.
The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.
In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.
More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
