With Peacemaker now available as a playable character and Janet Cage as the latest Kameo released, Ermac is slated to be the next DLC fighter for Mortal Kombat 1. It appears that we’ll be getting new information about Ermac relatively soon.
Over on the official Mortal Kombat 1 Twitter account, the first tease for Ermac has been dropped. Needless to say, Ermac is looking quite different compared to how he did during his initial reveal, and during Mortal Kombat 1’s main story mode.
In the brief scene that we’re shown, Ermac is seen facing off against Kenshi. In the story mode, Kenshi was able to regain his ability to perceive his surroundings thanks to how the sword interacted with Ermac during the first fight against him.
Needless to say, Ermac and Kenshi’s intro dialogue references this interaction from the story. As it turns out, Ermac is not exactly pleased with some of his souls now being inside of Sento.
“Outworld souls cannot live in an Earthrealm blade,” exclaimed Ermac.
“They seem to be doing just fine,” responded Kenshi.
The Mortal Kombat Twitter account implied that we’ll likely be getting a trailer very soon. “Next week, we are many,” said the Tweet.
Very briefly during the tease, Mavado, the next Kameo coming to Mortal Kombat 1, can also be seen. He’ll likely be part of Ermac’s upcoming trailer. After all, there’s been a tradition of showcasing a DLC fighter and DLC Kameo with every post-launch trailer.
Ermac & Mavado’s trailer coming next week Finally Ermac is returning as playable since 2015 Also I think the mask is his gear slot!#MK1 #MortalKombat1 pic.twitter.com/POqpopGGVz
