As is typical for these big releases nowadays, those that pre-order Mortal Kombat X have a little bonus to look forward to: Goro. After an absence of more than eight years, the final boss of the original game in the series returns in Mortal Kombat X as a pre-order-exclusive downloadable fighter. There’s no mention one way or another in the press release, but you can probably expect Goro to eventually be sold as downloadable content at a later date.

The coming game features some new quirks, including multiple fight styles for each combatant, selected before a match begins, and an online play-focused experience that pushes everyone toward taking on other human players. There’s also a whole new story featuring longtime favorites like Scorpion and Sub-Zero alongside a lineup of newcomers.
