Mortal Kombat Characters

A significant feature of Mortal Kombat 11 is the new take on classic Mortal Kombat Characters. A mysterious titan named Kronika “The Keeper of Time” aims to bring order back to the universe after the events of Mortal Kombat X, leading to characters meeting past and future versions of themselves. Atomhawk was responsible for re-imagining many iconic characters which were a very fun and challenging experience, being given a degree of creative control while staying faithful to NetherRealm’s vision.
