Mortal Kombat enthusiasts eagerly awaiting more details on Mortal Kombat 1 will have their wishes granted with the upcoming debut of the game's first Kombat Kast. NetherRealm Studios recently announced the MK1 Kombat Kast, teasing what fans can expect from the event. The focus will be on providing insights into the movesets of Johnny Cage and Scorpion, as well as discussing the new Kameo fighters introduced to the series. The Kombat Kast is scheduled to be streamed live on NetherRealm's Twitch channel on July 6th at 10 a.m. PT.
While Scorpion and Johnny Cage are confirmed to be the showcased characters during the Mortal Kombat 1 Kombat Kast, it is likely that other characters will also make appearances, particularly as NetherRealm plans to discuss the Kameo fighters. However, Scorpion and Johnny Cage will likely receive significant attention, with the event delving into their movesets in detail.
To prepare for the character showcases, fans can read the updated bios that have been added to the Mortal Kombat 1 website. Although the two characters' lore remains largely consistent with previous iterations, their bios have been updated, and their appearances have been slightly adjusted to fit the rebooted Mortal Kombat game.
Your wait will be well rewarded. The first Kombat Kast will kick off next Thursday, July 6th @ 10:00AM PT / 12:00PM CT. Join us for a discussion on Kameos, full gameplay breakdowns of Scorpion & Johnny Cage, and more. #MK1 pic.twitter.com/Dr8lw3TaOK

"Following in the footsteps of his revered father, Scorpion remains unwaveringly loyal to the Lin Kuei and its mission to protect Earthrealm," describes the overview of Scorpion. "The loss of his beloved father deeply affected Scorpion, leaving him in a state of mourning. While he took solace in the knowledge that his brother, Sub-Zero, would assume their father's role as the Lin Kuei's Grandmaster, Sub-Zero's unprecedented actions to renounce the traditional responsibilities of the Lin Kuei have dampened Scorpion's enthusiasm. He harbors concerns that a future conflict with his brother may arise, leading to a struggle for control over the legacy of the Lin Kuei."
"Similar to countless celebrities before him, Johnny succumbed to the allure of his own stardom. He became dependent on the admiration of his fans and the validation he received through social media praise," describes the overview of Johnny Cage. "However, as his star power wanes, Johnny finds himself struggling to maintain relevance. Joining Liu Kang's Earthrealm champions, he hopes that this alliance will offer his career and fame a much-needed revitalization."
Following the conclusion of the first Mortal Kombat 1 playtest, players were left craving more information about the game. Some theories emerged based on character dialogues and interactions during the playtest, but it is unlikely that these questions will be addressed in the upcoming Kombat Kast or any future events.
