We’re just one day away from the release of the Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns update. With this update, Cyrax, Sektor, and Noob Saibot will become available for purchase while everyone will get access to the Animality finisher for all characters.
Of course, we recently learned that even the guest characters are getting Animalities with the upcoming update. Earlier today, we finally got to see Omni-Man, Homelander, and Peacemaker’s Animalities.
Omni-Man transforms into the gigantic kaiju known as Hail Mary from the Invincible series. After the Kaiju was defeated during its first encounter with Omni-Man, Cecil Stedman ordered the creature to be kept alive and frozen as Cecil had grown suspicious of Omni-Man. Thus, the kaiju was given the name “Hail Mary” as it was intended to be used as a last ditch effort to stop Omni-Man sometime in the future.
During the Animality, Hail Mary begins by crushing the opponent with its appendage. From there, the enemy is picked up, then severed in two by a painful looking bite.

For Homelander, he transforms into a griffin with the American flag plastered on its feathers. The opponent is made airborne, then also severed in two.
Following this, the Homelander demonstrates that, even as a griffin, he has retained his ability to incinerate his enemies with heat vision. From here, he’s able to generate enough heat against the opponent until their body violently explodes.

For the last guest character currently in Mortal Kombat 1, Peacemaker transforms into an eagle. He teams up with a Eagly in a pretty ridiculous cutscene.
Peacemaker, identified by the fact that he’s still wearing a helmet even as an eagle, pulls out a machine gun to eviscerate the loser of the match. Eagly then swoops in and drops a grenade to finish things up.

We also got a look at General Shao and Reiko’s Animalities in which they transform into a bear and ram respectively.
