Quan Chi Joins ‘Mortal Kombat 1’ on December 14th; John Cena Confirmed to Be Voicing Peacemaker [Trailer]

With all of the “will he or won’t he” regarding Anthony Starr and Homelander for the character’s upcoming release this Spring for Mortal Kombat 1, it’s easy to forget about the other DLC Kombatants. Namely, Quan Chi and Peacemaker, the former arriving in Mortal Kombat 1 on December 14th for Kombat Pack owners (December 21 for everyone else), and the latter arriving in February 2024.

We also get a bit of background lore for Quan Chi, who is voiced this time by Sean T. Krishnan. Born into hard labor in an Outworld mine, Quan Chi had no future, just the guarantee of certain death in its dark tunnels. Fearing for his life after betraying fellow mine workers, Quan Chi’s life was saved by a mysterious benefactor and in exchange for his service, she offered to free him from the mines and train him in dark magic. Now a master of the Netherrealm’s most vile sorcery, he plots with Shang Tsung to conquer the realms.

In addition to showing off Quan Chi, we also get a look at Khameleon, a new Mortal Kombat 1 Kameo Fighter, who will be available as part of the Kombat Pack and standalone purchase in January 2024. As for Peacemaker, the trailer also gives fans a quick glimpse of the antihero, who according to the press release, has been confirmed to be voiced by and modeled after John Cena.

Mortal Kombat 1 is out now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Endless Mode Available Now in New Update for ‘Life Eater’

Published

on

Fans of Strange Scaffold and publisher Frosty Pop’s apocalyptic Life Eater have another reason to keep coming back to the game, as the much-anticipated Endless Mode is available now. Best of all, it’s a free update!

The new endless mode gives Life Eater players an arena to determine how long they can evade capture while delaying the end of the world. Collect score points called ZEAL by building an airtight procedure around your sacrifices, investigate the lives of countless procedurally generated kidnapping targets, and survive as long as possible in your personal gauntlet of nightmares.

“We’re so excited to expand the playtime of Life Eater with a uniquely dark and intriguing systemic experience,” says Strange Scaffold founder Xalavier Nelson Jr. “You really just terrorize an entire city of people over the span of decades, now, and I can only hope that I don’t come to regret writing that sentence in a press release.”

For those not in the know, Life Eater (check out Aaron’s review here) is a horror fantasy kidnapping simulator where you play as a druid living in suburbia. You serve a dark entity by abducting and sacrificing specific but vaguely described humans every year to stop the apocalypse. Use a unique video editing-inspired interface to discover the intimate lives of your victims, one schedule block at a time. When the time is right, abduct them before authorities find out.

You can snag a copy of Life Eater on Steam.
