Back on Thursday of last week, Mortal Kombat 1 Director, Ed Boon, let us know that we could expect Sektor’s story and gameplay trailer for the upcoming Khaos Reigns expansion this Wednesday. Now that we’re a day away from the release, Boon has teased us with a new clip of the coming DLC character.
The clip in questions features Sektor’s intro sequence against Geras as the two exchange some pre-fight smack talk. Things quickly become violent even before the words “round 1, fight” are uttered, however.
Sektor and Cyrax are undergoing a total character makeover here in Mortal Kombat 1 as developers at NetherRealm Studios decided to take advantage of their alternate universe timeline situation by gender swapping both cybernetic ninjas.
Sektor retains the kinds of fire and missile attacks that characterized her approach in previous appearances, but fans are more than eager to see what kinds of new spins and updates to her design NRS has in store.
Her brief dialogue with Geras seems to hint back to her previous identity as he warns her about experimenting with automation. The original Sektor was much more into cybernetic transformations than his fellow Lin Kuei members, so much so that he was more than willing to undergo the transformation while others had to be hauled kicking and screaming.
One has to wonder what kind of role lady Sektor will play in Mortal Kombat 1’s new Khaos Reigns story expansion, specifically whether or not she’ll be antagonistic as she further pursues automation.
Check out the intro sequence as Sektor shows off her fancy new gun right here:
