Tremor, initially introduced in Mortal Kombat: Special Forces, was overshadowed by popular ninjas like Scorpion and Sub-Zero. Despite not appearing in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, he makes a surprising return in Mortal Kombat 1. While he is being reintroduced to the series, this time he does not make it as a boss or a playable character.

Tremor’s new design in Mortal Kombat 1 depicts him as a ninja made from rock, as seen in the recent Omni-Man gameplay trailer. Although the trailer focuses on Omni-Man, the co-creator of Mortal Kombat, Ed Boon, shared some interesting news about Tremor on his X handle.

Tremor in Mortal Kombat 1

NetherRealm Studios just released its first batch of post-launch Mortal Kombat 1 content. Following the confirmation of Omni-Man joining the roster in a trailer featuring Tremor, the actual release date for Tremor in Mortal Kombat 1’s Kameo fighter pack is finally out. Players will be able to use Tremor as a Kameo starting November 20.

Ahead of this, Ed Boon took to X about some information on Tremor. In the post, he discussed how the character wasn’t supposed to appear in the Mortal Kombat Trilogy. Sharing a video on Tremor’s history, Boon said, “While he actually wasn’t meant to be in the cast of MK Trilogy. This is a nice little history of Tremor in Mortal Kombat.“

With Tremor making a comeback as a Kameo, many fans are unhappy with the way the character looks. The Mortal Kombat X design, which featured rocky skin-forming fists, was favored by many fans. Some fans suggest that Tremor should have human skin with rocky skin as armor, finding the Mortal Kombat X look more appealing.

What is the history of Tremor?

Tremor, the latest addition to Mortal Kombat 1, has a diverse history in the franchise. Originating as an unplayable boss in Mortal Kombat Special Forces, he later appeared in Mortal Kombat 9’s Challenge Tower. Tremor made his playable debut in Mortal Kombat X, transitioning from antagonist to roster member.

Known for his association with the Black Dragon Clan, he was freed from prison by Kano and became loyal to him. Originally intended as a ninja in the Mortal Kombat Trilogy, Tremor was replaced by Rain. His fighting style centers on geokinesis, using the Earth as a weapon. Tremor’s signature moves include Rock Drop and Crystal Toss.

Omni-Man was teased in the trailers and entered the roster on November 9. Despite disappointment at his new look, fans are still delighted to witness Tremor’s return on November 20. They eagerly anticipate the introduction of characters in future fighter packs. Considering this, what are your thoughts on Tremor’s design in Mortal Kombat 1?
