The DLC will also include four different fighters, similar to the first Kombat DLC, and another teaser from Boon included a tweet showing outlines of the new characters, leading fans of the game to speculate which fighters will be included in the upcoming DLC.
Based on the shadowy outlined shapes, there have been guesses non-playable minor character Baraka, The Joker, Cyrax, Smoke, or Sector, will be among the new characters introduced in the coming expansion pack.
However, a new tweet from Boon dated last Tuesday portrayed two of the fighters speculated by fans to be Drahmin, an Oni demon from the fifth plane of Netherrealm who made his first appearance in "Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance," and Havik, a Cleric of Chaos, who was first featured in "Mortal Kombat: Deception."
Both fighters were depicted in the tweet's image as more detailed compared to earlier versions of their appearances in 2006's "Mortal Kombat: Armageddon." The other two fighters remain unnamed.
While the exact date is as yet unconfirmed, the Kombat Pack 2 DLC slated to be released next April, when "Mortal Kombat X" celebrates the first anniversary of its launch.
