Mortal Kombat 11 DLC characters are getting announced, confirmed, and leaked left and right, but thanks to the datamining efforts of certain members of the Mortal Kombat community, we now have a first-look at upcoming skins and cosmetics for the game’s current character roster.
On Twitter, Mortal Kombat player Murdoink was able to find quite a few yet-to-be-released character skins while digging around through Mortal Kombat 11’s files on PC. Here’s the tweet:

Not only did Murdoink find actual images representing these new skins, but he was able to count how many new skins each character will be getting. So far, it seems Kitana will be getting the most cosmetic love with eight skins coming her way. In contrast, Jacqui, Kung Lao, Liu Kang, Kollector, and Raiden are getting the fewest new skins at only two each.
While some of these skins are already official (some of them are even available now), some of the datamined skins were found in confined information, indicating that they might never see the light of day. However, since they are in the game files, chances are they’ll pop up in-game sooner or later.
Mortal Kombat 11 released just last April, but it’s already making big waves in the industry with everything new that it brings to the decades-old franchise. While fans of the community were more or less happy with the updated animations, fluid and intense combat, and variety of game modes to enjoy, there is also plenty to look forward to in terms of upcoming DLC characters, and of course, character cosmetics. In a game that’s focused heavily on competitive online multiplayer, gamers will always jump at the chance to acquire customization and personalization items that make their favorite characters feel unique and more their own.
NetherRealm Studios has already announced that Mortal Kombat 11 is going to the longest-supported game in the franchise to date. That said, even with all of these new skins and characters getting leaked, hopes are high that NetherRealm Studios will have a lot more up its sleeve to surprise gamers with thrilling new content for years to come.
