NetherRealm Studios announced via the official Mortal Kombat X account on May 24, 2025, that Mortal Kombat 1 will no longer receive new DLC characters or story chapters. Responding to player requests for continued support, the studio confirmed ongoing balance adjustments and bug fixes to maintain the game’s quality.
This decision marks the end of additional content expansions, such as new fighters or narrative arcs, for the 2023 fighting game, which has already seen multiple DLC releases.
Fans can expect NetherRealm to focus on refining gameplay and ensuring stability, though no further details were provided on future patches or a potential Mortal Kombat 2.
