Mortal Kombat 11's Mileena trailer is impressively gruesome

[midian182]

TL;DR: Mortal Kombat is famous for its over-the-top displays of ultraviolence, but a new gameplay trailer for returning fan-favorite Mileena is on another level. The sai blade-wielding genetic experiment, created by series villain Shang Tsung, tears opponents apart in several imaginative ways. The clip follows her recent portrayal by singer Megan Thee Stallion in a promo.

Mileena follows Rambo and Rain as the final character in Mortal Kombat 11’s Kombat Pack 2. The trailer shows off her powers of teleportation and invisibility, along with an affinity for stabbing people repeatedly in the face and biting their necks out with her gigantic, fang-filled mouth.

One of Mileena’s more gruesome moves involves inserting her blades into an opponent's torso multiple times, chewing out their throat, throwing her sai weapons through the back of their head so it penetrates the eyes, before ripping out what’s left of the neck. And this isn’t even the finisher. That involves Mileena going into a flying spin and tearing her opponent in two like a sexy buzzsaw.

Before the Mileena trailer dropped, a promotional ad arrived that starred Megan Thee Stallion in full cosplay. For those who’ve never heard of her, Megan Thee Stallion features alongside Cardi B in WAP, a song that surprised anyone searching for Wireless Application Protocol. She’s also a big fan of anime, apparently.

Rambo, Rain, and Mileena will all be available characters in the Kombat Pack 2 DLC that arrives on November 17.

I miss how Mortal Kombat's gore was humorous like in MK2

I bought MK 11 during pandemic boredom and I was EXTREMELY disappointed with it.

The gameplay flow is boring now.

MK9 and MK:X had a better flow, but it was too exploitable and a match could basically end in just 2 well-executed combos leaving the enemy at less than 10% health or dead outright. All they had to do was fix that, but they went the entire other direction and made the game boring.

Any NON FREE game with MTX, skins and so on is an instant no buy for me. Starcraft II is now free 2 play so that's an exception. Path of Exile, DOTA: not playing them but it makes sense that the producer needs to make some money. Call of Duty [any paid version], Diablo [IV/immortal]? Mnope. Not buying.
Oh, btw: 6000 USD to have all the skins in MK:11?
Never. Voting with my wallet.

Agreed. There is something rather jarring about seeing a character's throat clawed out or bowels removed in ultra-realistic detail-- then, 200 milliseconds later, there's not a scratch on them.

Ah, Mileena. Kind of a cross between Kitana and Baraka.

You know it is always a very hard argument for people to accuse videogame as source of violence culture. But recent developments shown that it might not hold for far too long. Not anymore.

Right?

“Ok, now “finish them”....again”

Path of Exile is actually free. The MTX in this game is entirely cosmetic and doesn't affect the gameplay whatsoever. It's there to show appreciation to the developers if one feels like it and is completely optional. It's a very huge game and of very high quality for a free game. It's not even a MMO. Can be played single player but requires online connection to the servers.

Need to chime in so that others don't get the wrong idea.
