T-1000 gameplay trailer for MK1 brings more references to the Terminator 2 movie

NetherRealm and WB Games have released the official gameplay trailer for the T-1000, arriving in Mortal Kombat 1 next Tuesday. This liquid metal assassin offers a unique playstyle, creatively dodging projectiles with his shape-shifting abilities. Fans of Kabal, absent from this iteration, will likely find much to enjoy, as several of Kabal's signature moves and weapons have been incorporated into the T-1000's arsenal.

The trailer is packed with nods to Terminator 2: Judgment Day, including a recreation of the iconic finger-wagging scene (a gesture notably banned in the NBA for unsportsmanlike conduct!). The T-1000 even asks Johnny Cage if he's seen John Connor, adding another layer of cinematic authenticity.

Alongside the T-1000, the trailer also showcased Madam Bo, another upcoming addition to the Mortal Kombat 1 roster. The T-1000's Fatality is particularly gruesome, showcasing his ability to seamlessly transform and replace his victim, a chillingly efficient display of his mission-oriented programming.

While WB Games hasn't made further announcements, speculation is rife that this might be the final content wave for Mortal Kombat 1, with a potential new game announcement on the horizon. However, this remains unconfirmed.
