The latest DLC character, Ermac, has been added to Mortal Kombat 1, but there may be more exciting additions on the horizon. A potential leak suggests that a new gender-swapped version of a classic ninja character could be making an appearance in the game. Professional model and fashion designer Jiwon Ra posted on Instagram claiming that she provided the face model capture for Harumi Hasashi and will be part of the game as a female version of Scorpion.
If the leak is legitimate, it hints at a new Scorpion Kameo coming in MK1’s Kombat Pack 2. This move wouldn’t be surprising, as the game has already introduced Janet Cage as an alternate timeline gender-swap of Johnny Cage. Harumi’s backstory ties into the existing Mortal Kombat lore, making her potential inclusion an intriguing development for fans of the series.
The announcement of Harumi Scorpion as DLC for Mortal Kombat 1 has not been officially confirmed by NetherRealm Studios or Warner Bros. It remains to be seen how her moves and appearance will differ from the original iterations of Scorpion. As fans eagerly anticipate more information on this potential addition, they can expect an official announcement closer to Final Kombat in June or later in the summer after the first set of DLC wraps up with Takeda.
