Mortal Kombat 1 has recently been at the center of attention for the crypto-sourced leak that reveals some previously forgotten fighters. The leak might have been an inside job and is being investigated by the game’s developer, NetherRealm Studios.
The leaked information reveals that the game contains two different bonus characters that were never officially released on its original version. According to the leak, the two bonus characters are an Enderman-like humanoid, and a humanoid dragon. The humanoid dragon was supposedly designed by the original artist, John Tobias, and modeled after his concept drawing.
The characters were supposedly meant to be released in future updates but, unfortunately, were never implemented in the game. Despite this, their names remain a mystery. It’s believed that their names are Coronus and Azrael respectively.
The leak also includes concept art for the characters, revealing that both of them were highly detailed and anthropomorphic entities. They both had facial features and were wearing clothes. The artwork was made by Tobias and shows that both of them had a variety of martial arts moves and combat stances.
This leak is undoubtedly a treasure-trove of information about the early development of the popular fighting game. It’s a great reminder that NetherRealm Studios still has some unseen history that could potentially revolutionize the Mortal Kombat franchise. Hopefully, they’ll soon uncover more about these two mysterious characters and unveil the secrets of their pasts.
