NetherRealm Studios has revealed that its latest mainline Mortal Kombat game, Mortal Kombat 11, will not be getting any additional DLC. Since its release in April 2019, Mortal Kombat 11 has received a generous amount of downloadable content in the form of new fighters and cosmetics, but apparently, the most recent DLC release, Kombat Pack 2, which added Mileena, Rain, and John Rambo, will be the fighter’s last. NetherRealm Studios confirmed that DLC support for Mortal Kombat 11 is ending because it has moved on to a new project. NetherRealm hasn’t clarified what that might be, but the studio is traditionally known for developing either Mortal Kombat or Injustice titles—the latter being a fighting game series involving Superman, Batman, and other popular DC Comics properties.
NetherRealm is now focusing on its next project and after more than two years of supporting Mortal Kombat 11, DLC for the game, including characters, has come to an end.

In a tweet, the Chicago-based studio has announced that it is “now focusing on its next project.” What is this project? NetherRealm hasn’t announced it, but the studio is primarily known for either Mortal Kombat or the Injustice series, a fighting game based on a darker version of the DC Comics universe.
