Mortal Kombat 11: Every Playable Fighter Confirmed So Far

5. Skarlet

Mortal Kombat 11 Skarlet
WB Games

Introduced in 2011's reboot, Skarlet has become something of a fan-favourite fighter over the years. Appearing as DLC in that title and in the tie-in comics to its sequel, the Outworld experiment gone wrong is finally getting her main roster debut.

The array of blood-based powers are deliciously violent, with one of her special movies seeing her shank her opponent, use their own blood as a scythe to fling them into the air, and then launch a spear through their mouth and out the back of their head. Her fatality is - somehow - even more gruesome than that.

NetherRealm look like they've had a blast playing around with the possibilities of this fighter's move set, and as long as she's got the substance to back up her endless amount of style, Skarlet will no doubt be one of MK 11's biggest stars.
