Mortal Kombat 1 has wrapped up the first round of additional characters for the roster, so now attention turns to what is coming – and the first yellow cab off the rank is a familiar cyborg, Cyrax.
Only the altered timeline of Liu Kang has seen some changes to ol’ Cy the science bomb guy, with two main amendments:
- Aint a CYBORG no more
- Aint a GUY no more
But the mustard menace is still dropping all the familiar tricks you would expect, and a bunch of fun new ones – with a teeny teaser offered by Ed Boon to wet your whistle:
Spinning blades,

Sticky bombs,
Follow bombs,
Pop-up bombs & nets!
On Thursday (Aug 15) we will be releasing the first Cyrax game-play (and story) trailer for Mortal Kombat 1: KHAOS REIGNS. pic.twitter.com/tJp7Lqezkv
With bombs, spinning blades and a wicked new accent Cyrax 2.0 has shifted from an emotionless cyborg to a fiery femme that is happy to call out Sub Zero on his shit. This also applies to the red robot Sektor, who has seen a similar change – but this gameplay teaser is focused on lady Cy. For those paying close attention, you can also see that the stage on display is also a brand new one.
So keep an eye out across the next two days, because the big promise is a new video showcasing “Cyrax game-play (and story) trailer for Mortal Kombat 1: KHAOS REIGNS”, so it will be a generous portion of what is coming for the games big narrative expansion.
