Mortal Kombat 11: Every PLAYABLE Character Confirmed So Far
6. Sonya Blade
Sonya Blade has been a mainstay of Mortal Kombat since the original. Over the years she has become a much tougher individual and gained the rank of General, as well as gave birth to Cassie Cage. Sonya has developed much more than most characters in the series and she was touted as a big deal at the MK11 reveal.
Though, to be fair, that may be because of who is voicing the character: none other than real-life badass, former UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion, and current WWE Women's Champion, Ronda Rousey. We got a lengthy video of Rousey behind-the-scenes, doing her voice work and talking about why she loves Mortal Kombat, and Sonya Blade in particular.
It's no surprise to see NeatherRealm Studios spotlighting more female characters, what with more girls gaming than ever, and the current state of the world. Well, Sonya Blade is at the forefront of all that, with her brawling style, handy army gear, and her Fatality that sees her shoot her foe into the blades of a helicopter!
