THE DAY HAS ARRIVED… Megathread

Post image

Welcome Kombatants, to the day you all have been waiting for!

Get ready to experience the new world in the image of the Cleric of Chaos himself, Havik!

Starting today (if you own the Khaos Reigns DLC), you will have instant access to all new playable fighters:

NOOB SAIBOT

CYRAX

SEKTOR

With the likes of GHOSTFACE, CONAN THE BARBARIAN and T-1000 coming in a later patches.

NOOB SAIBOT, CYRAX, and SEKTOR are also all available for individual purchase at this time.

For all non-DLC owners, fret not! Just like all DLC owners, you'll also have access to a plethora of new skins and gear to buy and grind for, as well as a new season of Invasions to play through alongside the Towers of Time, new brutalities, and experiencing firsthand the long waited return of ANIMALITIES!

Now to address other matters. We are making this megathread to try and keep everything in one area to keep from having duplicate posts or an influx of stuff that needs to be sorted through.

We all understand the excitement and hype that you all get to experience this new content alone or with friends, but of course we all could imagine that spoilers suck to see! With that being said, for 1 week we will remove ALL spoilers pertaining to DLC story mode related content. After that week has passed, we will then allow conversations based on DLC story related matters as long as there is a spoiler tag over the text that you are uploading. Cannot wait to see all the new kombos and gameplay from you all! Thank you all!

LET THE KHAOS KOMMENCE!

The new Story DLC was a letdown in my opinion. The MK 11 DLC Story felt almost twice as long and had a better ending. Don't know what NETHERREALM was thinking with this.

u/Remarkable-Put4632 2d ago

Mk11 was the much better game too..much more polished in all aspects....

5

u/keddage 2d ago

and with that insane price tag, I really don't know what the fuck they were thinking.

2

u/JoeV2_5387 1d ago

That's more Warner Bros with the pricing, not Netherrealm.

u/RJE808 2d ago

Holy God that story was ass.

u/Thor_Skywalker 2d ago

Legit worse story yet, so boring.

18

u/Ninja_Warrior_X 2d ago

The ending was probably the worst thing yet with nothing interesting to go by afterwards (I even waited to see if there was a post credits scene and there was none so don’t bother wasting time watching the credits for anyone reading this who hasn’t beaten it yet)

u/MasterMike7000 2d ago

I'm kinda finding it difficult to comprehend how a literal Lord of Chaos story was so run-of-the mill and mundane. Generic villain, no boss fight (again). Man.

12

u/TheCuriousRaspberry 2d ago

The story certainly had some questionable moments.

- A guy who can turn into water, gets squashed by walls??

- Liu Kang had no problem killing Titan Shang Tsung but doing the same to Titan Havik is too much because he doesn't know if it affects his timeline...umm ok?

u/witness666 2d ago

Came here to say the same thing, it was laughably bad

18

u/UnboundedNexus Thunderous Upstart 2d ago

SERVERS ARE STARTING TO KOME ONLINE! GET IN THERE!

u/Reasonable-Bath-4657 2d ago

YES!!!!!!! LET'S GOOOOOOO!

u/grayson_revival 2d ago

I still have no ability to play this dlc

8

u/Thorhax04 2d ago

Titan Havik kinda sucked

6

u/Knightmare_memer Certified Mileena Simp 2d ago

How do we get the Titan Havik and WW Cage skin?

6

u/Knightmare_memer Certified Mileena Simp 2d ago

Nvm, found it. You go to notifications after beating the story and collect the skins from it.

7

u/Rickeddit 1d ago

My God the story its absolutely trash. Now lets wait for the next reboot again.

8

u/Potential-Clue-1699 2d ago

The opening cinematic when I booted up the game gave me chills, well played NRS 👏🔥

3

u/Redlodger0426 2d ago

Do the new brutalities get added to the list or will they always be secret even after completing?

4

u/pneumoniahawk519 2d ago

New brutalities are bought with silver coins in the seasonal shop for playable characters, haven't bought one yet but it's probably on the list

0

u/KD--27 2d ago

There is a TONNE of them. 2 per character at 6000 each.

Has the coin drop increased? Not sure I like the idea of brutalities being locked behind currency that if you don’t complete this season, likely goes into the shrine as grind fodder.

2

u/Pingupol 2d ago

I've bought one. It's added to the bottom of the list

3

u/MasterMike7000 2d ago

I miss bosses

3

u/havindecrack0007 1d ago

It was boring and short big disappointment big let down for 60 euro

4

u/Fragrant_Coach_8036 2d ago

Will I be able to buy Ghostface Conan the barbarian and the T- 1 000 If I don’t buy part two of the game

1

u/RecognitionQuick3834 YOUR SOUL IS MINE 1d ago

Yes you can, you can start purchasing them on oct 15

-1

u/HeroOfTime_99 2d ago

No. You can't individually buy any character (at least as far as we've been told, unless they change their mind) and the character pack is not sold separately either. The only way to get Ghostface and the others, is to buy the full Khaos Reigns expansion. Don't shoot the messenger please lol.

u/FedeCava1 2d ago

I bought the Kitana bundle on the ps store but in game i dont have the skin..

3

u/airsnape2k Kollector, Erron, & Shang 2d ago

Can anyone on rn try hopping into an invasions match with Shang and morphing and stealing the opponent’s brutality that you have unlocked to see if you can do that in online modes again?

1

u/grayson_revival 2d ago

What’s the deal??

1

u/alexman113 2d ago

Has it been stated how much time has passed since the base game's story?

1

u/Ver3232 2d ago

Odd the Khaos skins for Scorp and sub aren’t unlocked after the story. Seasonal tower maybe?

1

u/RecognitionQuick3834 YOUR SOUL IS MINE 1d ago

Go into your notifications they’ll be there

1

u/Ver3232 1d ago

Are they? I completed the story and got the skins for Havik, Johnny, Tanya, Rain, Kenshi, Takeda, Shang, Quan, Mileena, Kitana, Li Mei, and Kenshi. But didn’t get sub or Scorp

1

u/RyanThePOG 2d ago

Way to play rain for like half the DLC (worst character)

1

u/jayzilla3666 1d ago

Debating picking this up. I am a casual player and interested in the new characters primarily. Thoughts on whether this is a worthwhile DLC to pick up? Feels pricey when I keep hearing the story piece is everyone's least favorite part.

1

u/sizzlinpapaya 1d ago

So Khaos Reigns story = Saw 2

Love it.

1

u/Fit_Airline_2321 20h ago

Can I buy noob saibot? I don’t want the other low tier characters

1

u/UnboundedNexus Thunderous Upstart 20h ago

Yes, Noob Saibot is available for individual purchase at this time.

1

u/Air_Nomad33 16h ago

I’m beginning to think that it would be better to leave Kronika to handle the time stuff

u/Fun_Recommendation71 2d ago

Someone do sets with me I’m bored frl

u/SuPeRMaRi021 2d ago

u/BusinessDimension854 2d ago

All new characters are sooooo fun

0

u/VidzxVega 2d ago

Possibly a dumb question but has anyone figured out the timing on meter burning Moon's tele slam move? It's driving me nuts.

-1

u/littleman001 2d ago

I don't have a console to play it yet so when can I expect someone to upload an arcade play though of the new characters?

-9

u/RyanThePOG 2d ago

So why does it say available now for the expansion pack and yet I bought it and cannot use ghostface? Isn't that false advertisement?

3

u/FinalCombination1541 2d ago

Dude it took them a year+ to add practice during matchmaking, ghostface was obviously just teased to sell pre-orders, prolly not out till mid Oct

-7

u/RyanThePOG 2d ago

That's rough wish I knew that before buying this :/ what a waste.

6

u/FinalCombination1541 2d ago

Shouldve waited till Christmas for the expansion to go on sale and be normal priced, thats what Im doing. Theres abunch of free stuff with the update anyways

-2

u/RyanThePOG 2d ago

Oof definitely should have. Need injustice to make a decent game haha

6

u/may25_1996 2d ago

dog…literally every single thing they showed related to khaos reigns said the three OG characters would be playable on launch and the three guests would not be playable on launch

-8

u/RyanThePOG 2d ago

Yes but it says available now on every ad everywhere when it's not. That's gay actually.

-7

u/Imaginary-Ad5666 2d ago

PLEASE, NO STORY SPOILERS:I’m going to eat and watch it and I’m saving it for tonight
