Alien and a drunken fart man killing everything in a new Mortal Kombat X video

Both silent and deadly

Few video game trailers are as effective and efficient as the Mortal Kombat X new character videos. They show the fighters, one at a time, destroying the opposition as you could theoretically do if you were controlling them. “Theoretically” being the key word here.

Mortal Kombat X‘s Kombat Pack 2 will sport four of these characters: the Xenomorph from Alien, Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Bo’ Rai Cho from previous Mortal Kombat games, and Triborg who is new to the Mortal Kombat universe.

The first two are obvious horror movie staples, feared for their indiscriminate murdering ways. Leatherface makes liberal use of his chainsaw, sometimes finding ways to make it operate vertically on its own while he mallets some poor schlup in the head. Alien is the perfect organism and the perfect killing machine. But, and maybe it’s just me, Mortal Kombat X‘s take has the Xenomorph fighting a bit too bipedal to make it look natural.

Triborg brought rockets to a knife fight, as he’s some sort of Iron Man-esque robot on a violence bent. And, then there’s Bo’ Rai Cho, a drunken fat boy who uses fists and flatulence in equal parts. Vomit, too. Don’t forget the vomit.
