If you know who Kabal is, it means you’ve played more Mortal Kombat games much more intently than I have. So when I saw people chatting about him being announced for Mortal Kombat 11 I figured that he was some long forgotten or deceased character that’s being brought back by MK11’s time-twisting plot. He hasn’t. He’s been in the last two MK games, so I’m not entirely sure why Warner Bros. are making a fuss about him being in the new one. Is it a bit like when they tried to pretend that Superman wasn’t going to be in the Justice League film?
Anyway, he’s apparently been resurrected as a twisted, evil version of himself who serves the Netherrealm and wants to destroy the other realms. He’s apparently flip-flopped between being good and evil a few times. Was he good in MKX? I’m the last person you should be asking.
Here’s the reveal trailer:
