Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and NetherRealm Studios today released a new Mortal Kombat 11 gameplay trailer featuring Kitana and D’Vorah.
Kitana, the 10,000-year-old princess of Edenia, grew up believing she was Shao Kahn’s biological daughter and served as one of his deadliest warriors. When Kitana learned the truth, she fought against Shao Kahn’s attempted conquest of Earthrealm, eventually dying in battle. After being resurrected as an evil revenant version of her former self, Kitana now rules the Netherrealm alongside revenant Liu Kang, dedicated to the destruction of all the realms.
D’Vorah is one among many Kytinn, a swarm of sentient insects who share a hive mind. D’Vorah has served Shao Kahn, Kotal Kahn, and Shinnok, but her true allegiance is to the swarm. She lies, cheats, and backstabs so that when everyone else has died, the Kytinn hive will survive.
Mortal Kombat 11 will be available beginning April 23rd for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC.
