It seems that voice actors have officially become the main source of leaks in the video game industry. Not a week goes by without us having to tell you that one of them has unintentionally or unknowingly revealed something that has not been announced yet. This time, the game affected is Mortal Kombat 1, which has had one of its DLC characters leaked, although it won’t happen anytime soon.
Andrew Morgado, the actor who voices Reptile in Mortal Kombat 1, has leaked the identity of the next character appearing in the game. During a podcast, he mentioned that he coincided with other actors in the recording studio, naming some of them, such as Ronda Rousey and Robert Patrick. Morgado stated that Patrick was there to record his dialogue lines for the T-1000 character, the iconic liquid metal villain from Terminator 2. This information was not confirmed by anyone, and Morgado himself seemed unaware that it was not public knowledge.
In any case, this shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. In Mortal Kombat 11, the previous installment of the franchise, the T-800 already appeared as one of the fighters released as DLC. Given that the franchise had Arnold Schwarzenegger portraying one of the most charismatic and memorable robots in cinema history, it was expected that they might double down on their efforts by bringing in his most famous rival.
While it’s true that Netherrealm, the developers of the game, have neither confirmed nor denied the information at the time of this news publication, the leak appears very credible. In the meantime, they continue to work on the characters already confirmed as DLC. These include familiar faces like Quan Chi and Ermac, as well as cameos from characters like Homelander, Peacemaker, or Omni-Man, for whom we have even seen a trailer. Therefore, it seems to be a matter of time before this slimy villain in Mortal Kombat is confirmed, and we learn more about it.
