After a lot of teasing from Ed Boon, NetherRealm Studios has finally revealed their latest addition to the Mortal Kombat universe. However, this time they have gone off the traditional sequel route and have transported all the characters to a whole new universe. The reboot of Mortal Kombat has entranced fans with its impressive graphics and its seemingly intriguing story.

Dubbed Mortal Kombat 1, the game will have some classic characters returning along with fire god Liu Kang in an alternate reality. In what has come as a surprise to many in the community, in this new reality, stars from real life may also get featured.

Mortal Kombat 1 introduces real-life stars in the game

In the latest episode of Sacred Symbols: A PlayStation Podcast, Colin Moriarty shared some leaks for the upcoming NetherRealm title. Earlier he had revealed Jean-Claude Van Damme was also coming to the latest MK reboot. Van Damme will, however, serve as a skin for Johnny Cage. But his latest leak was shocking as it showed the entry of celebrities in the MK universe. He stated his sources have confirmed that Megan Fox and Travis Scott will also be appearing in the game.

However, this rumor seemed a bit far-fetched for his fellow stars. Moriarty told fans to take this information with a pinch of salt. Although it cannot be stated to be completely a false rumor, many stars are actively joining established franchises. Nicolas Cage joining the Dead by Daylight universe can be seen as a similar step.

The capacity in which these stars may feature in the game is still unknown as well. They might join as skins for the classic characters of the game like Van Damme. Or they could take the Nicolas Cage route and  represent themselves in the game.

NetherRealm Studios would have definitely thought something up by now on how to include these two stars in their universe. However, the main point for fans will still remain on the authenticity of these rumors, as NetherRealm has not confirmed anything yet.
