Yesterday, NetherRealm Studios unveiled the full line-up of its first Kombat Pack for Mortal Kombat 11. While the roster included several iconic characters such as Spawn and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s T-800 from Terminator, it was Mortal Kombat 11‘s incarnation of the Joker that seems to be creating a sensation on social media.
Unfortunately, the reactions to the Joker design for Mortal Kombat 11 have been less-than-positive as many have taken to Twitter to slam the character’s new look, with one fan even comparing this incarnation of the villain to a porn parody version from a video called Katwoman XXX. Nevertheless, Mortal Kombat 11 director Ed Boon assured fans this version of the Joker will be “vicious” on his official Twitter account.
