MK11 - The Future of Kombat League

 


Over the last few days Twitter has been going mental with new screenshots of upcoming skins to be released from Kombat League sets coming very soon. When Season 13 started on the 11th August, MK11 released this image on their social media showcasing some of the new skins as a teaser for us as something to look forward a little later on.

I'm not one who is a bit fan of kombat league, I do think it still has a lot of problems and isn't that much fun, but if you want to see my full opinion on that then do check out the blog post that I wrote several months back explaining what it is I specifically don't enjoy about kombat league and how it can be improved.

This post is specifically about the new skins and future upcoming seasons - The future of kombat league.

The next few season titles are as follows - The Season of the Hive, The Season of the Saurian Rebirth, and the Season of Lawlessness. Skins like the ones shown in the picture above, plus many more. Shoutout and big thank you to FGC_KingE on Twitter for posting and sharing these screenshots with us, giving us an inside preview of what is store for us when these new seasons go live.

All these skins look absolutely amazing, and I'm looking forward to getting involved with the new seasons where we can have a chance to earn these new skins.


We will start with the Season of Saurian Rebirth. New Reptile style skins will be available for Scorpion, Jade, Kung Lao, and Noob Saibot. Check out the screenshots below. 


My favourites of this season are Jade and Noob as stand outs, but Scorpion and Kung Lao look really nice as well and I like that there has been some re-tooling done to the original costume to make it look just that slightly different compared to other skins we've had released in the past. I'm generally really pleased with all of these skins, It'll be interesting to see who will be at Demi God rank for this season, I have a feeling it may probably be Noob given he was at Demi God rank in Season 8, however I could be mistaken.

One of the other seasons is The Season of Lawlessness. 

Skins of Sindel, Johnny Cage and Cassie Cage were previewed from this and I mistook it as a kind of medieval themed skins going on, perhaps with the metal cased arms and the black dragon logo on Johnny's vest. He could be mistaken for knight. Red, Black and Silver colour scheme. Johnny and the black dragon logo isn't something one would originally expect to see but it does add a certain uniqueness to these skins. 

What surprised me the most was the fourth character skin in this set and it's Sub Zero. He looks good with the red, the black, and the silver. 

Sindel is the big stand out for me, I'm very pleased that DLC characters will start to get skins released in kombat league. 

So there you have it. The Season of Lawlessness will include new skins for Johnny and Cassie Cage, Sindel, and Sub Zero.


And last but certainly not least is the season of the hive, kytinn style skins for Baraka, Skarlet, Kabal, and Kotal Kahn.

For a start we have Kotal Kahn looking like a beetle. It's probably one of the weirdest looking skins I've seen and has him looking a bit out of sorts. I wasn't sure if this suited him as this isn't something you wouldn't normally expect to see. It's basically the result of what would happen with Kotal and D'Vorah had a baby. 

Then we have Kytinn Skarlet which I really like, definitely my favourite kombat league skin for her so far. It looks good in yellow with the Kytinn colours, however I believe the red is far more superior and stands out much better as the more appealing. 

Kabal looks better than ever, he does look good with the Kytinn theme. I had wondered when we might see a new skin for him in kombat league and now we have one. I like the look of him in the screenshot of him with his mask off but the skin with the mask on also works well. 

And possibly my favourite of this set Baraka, who was slayed by D'Vorah has been brought back to life and has become part of the Hive. It looks incredible. 

All to play for in the next coming seasons. 



So there we have the next three seasons of Kombat League and their skins revealed. Again we have, The Season of the Hive, The Season of Saurian Rebirth, and the Season of Lawlessness.

Netherrealm studios have done an excellent job of redesigning some of the skins to fit in well with the themes. I suppose I shall have to up my game and work hard to ensure I climb up to those God ranks as you got to be in it to win it.

MK11 - Klassic Femme Fatale Skin Pack

 


MK11 - Klassic Femme Fatale Skin


Hey everyone

The newest skin pack from the MK11 Aftermath is available from today and it's the Klassic Femme Fatale skin pack set which includes new skins for Kitana, Skarlet, and Jade. 

From the looks of things, we're getting more of an MK9 feel with these new skins as it would seem that NetherRealm studios do listen to their fans and do give them what they want. This are skin sets people have been wanting for ages, and now from 6pm today they will be available to download on console, PS4 and Xbox. 

I like the look of these and certainly not what I was expecting to see. I was thinking Sindel may possibly be included in this skin pack, and I know some people were expecting to see Cassie Cage or Sonya Blade. 

It's something different and certainly adds something new to the game and I'm sure lots of fans will be very pleased by this and looking forward to playing and checking out these skins in more detail.
