PREVIEW

Mortal Kombat DLC fighter Ermac shown off in new trailer. Eurogamer report that the upcoming playable DLC character for the series is being shown off by developer Nether Realm in a shiny new gameplay trailer. Ermac will be slamming into arrival later this month. It’s not Ermac’s first outing however, having made his debut way back in 1995’s Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. He’s also appeared previously in the Story Mode for Mortal Kombat 1. This DLC release however, is the first time he will be playable in-game. Warner Bros. made a press release to accompany the trailer. ”Ermac is a collection of souls bound together by Quan Chi's dark magic that are intended to function as a group mind. But that spell is temporarily undone when Ermac is defeated by Mileena and the mind of King Jerrod, deceased ruler of Outworld and one of the souls in Ermac’s collection, takes control and rejoins the royal family, aiding Empress Mileena’s reign. Eventually, the amalgam of souls reestablishes control, and Ermac retreats to Outworld's shadows. No longer Quan Chi's slave, nor bound to the royal family, he must find a future worth fighting for.” Check out the new trailer online and get a look at Ermac’s supernatural abilities in action!
