Netherrealm Teases the Arrival of Homelander From ‘The Boys’ in ‘Mortal Kombat 1’ [Teaser]

Published

When you’re reminded of that milk-drinking scene from The Boys, you know you’re in for something special. While it’s not the official trailer for Homelander’s arrival in Mortal Kombat 1, NetherRealm is giving us a taste (sorry) of what to expect in the very near future, including the (somewhat) official reveal that Ferra (sans Torr) will be a Kameo Fighter.

Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon had actually teased Ferra joining Mortal Kombat 1 a few days ago on X in his usual cheeky way.

As for Homelander, we’re not given any footage of him in action, although we do get what appear to be his fatalities. As you might expect (as was the case with Omni-Man), the fatalities call back to various scenes from The Boys. No official date has been announced for Homelander’s arrival in Mortal Kombat 1, but those who purchased the Kombat Pack will be granted Early Access before his wider release.

Meanwhile, Season 4 of The Boys does have a release date of June 13 on Prime Video. The superhero drama will return with three episodes on that date, followed by a new episode each week, ending with the season finale on Thursday, July 18.

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.
