New Mortal Kombat 1 Trailer – Actor John Cena discusses Peacemaker
Warner Bros. Games and NetherRealm Studios today released a new trailer featuring actor John Cena discussing his role as the DC Super Hero Peacemaker, the latest downloadable content (DLC) guest fighter in Mortal Kombat 1. Based on the character he originated in The Suicide Squad film and continued in his own series Peacemaker on Max, John Cena lends his voice and likeness to the new playable character who brings a formidable moveset to Mortal Kombat 1, incorporating Peacemaker’s expert gunslinging skills, signature helmet abilities, and loyal bald eagle sidekick, Eagly, all complemented by his legendary dance moves and brash humour. Peacemaker, also known as Christopher Smith, is ready to challenge Liu Kang’s New Era of peace and will take on anyone and everyone who gets in his way.
Peacemaker is available now in Mortal Kombat 1 as part of the early access period for Kombat Pack owners, followed by wide availability from March 6.
The Mortal Kombat 1 Kombat Pack includes the Jean-Claude Van Damme character skin for Johnny Cage (available now); one-week early access to six playable DLC characters – Omni-Man (available now), Quan Chi (available now), Peacemaker (available now), Ermac, Homelander, and Takeda Takahashi; and five DLC Kameo Fighters (release dates for upcoming characters & Kameos still to be confirmed). The Kombat Pack is available now as part of the Mortal Kombat 1 Premium Edition or can be purchased separately.
