NetherRealm Studios has just released a new Mortal Kombat 1 Peacemaker gameplay trailer and fans of the show will recognize the character’s Sonic Boom helmet, butterfly girl, as well as other familiar scenes. The developers also made sure to include a Brutality from the scene in the show where he made a homemade grenade using a tank shell.
NetherRealm wanted to make sure they also showcased his over-the-top personality whenever possible, including a summation of nuances, voiceover, dialog, motions, and mannerisms. Why? They realized that fans of the show are very familiar with this character, and anything slightly off will be noticed right away. As for gameplay, you’ll find a mix of both his helmet attacks and coordination with Eagley, the character’s loyal bald eagle sidekick. Peacemaker is set to hit the game on Feb. 28 as part of the early access period for Mortal Kombat 1 Kombat Pack owners, followed by wide availability on March 6.

Fortunately, we had the pleasure of working directly with John Cena who delivered an impeccable performance (no surprise) as Peacemaker in the game, adding the ultimate level of credibility to the voice capture and dialog. In the mocap studio, we closely studied Peacemaker’s mannerisms, oftentimes bringing up clips from the show on the big screen and comparing them with the actor’s performance as we captured the motions to ensure they were reading like Peacemaker,” said Nick Nicastro, Design Manager, NetherRealm Studios.
