Will there be a Mortal Kombat 1 Season Pass?
Season passes for most games are released between one and two months after their release, so you can expect the Mortal Kombat 1 Season Pass to be released between November and December 2023. That said, if you purchase the Mortal Kombat 1 standard edition and get the season pass later on, you’ll be saving at least $30.
Should You Buy Standard or Premium Edition of Mortal Kombat 1?
Most gamers prefer the Premium edition of Mortal Kombat 1 over the standard edition mainly because of the early access. Since the game finally released on the 14th of September, does it still make sense to purchase the premium edition over Mortal Kombat 1’s standard edition?
If you want to play as the DLC kombatans before they’re released later this year, you might want to purchase the Mortal Kombat 1 Premium edition. But if you don’t mind waiting a couple of months to try the first DLC, you might want to save your bucks and get the standard edition instead.
Mortal Kombat 1 DLC Character Release

Unless you’ve got the Mortal Kombat 1 premium edition, you won’t get to play as the DLC characters for at least another two months. But when will the Mortal Kombat 1 DLC characters be released? You can expect the DLC characters of Mortal Kombat to be out for release in a couple of months one by one, with a gap of a couple of months between each release.
Reports say that you might get to play as the first DLC Character, Omni-Man, very soon, followed by Quan Chi. Since the DLC characters have been confirmed, I’ve compiled the complete list of all Mortal Kombat 1 DLC characters:
- Omni-Man
- Quan Chi
- Peacemaker
- Ermac
- Homelander
- Takahashi Takeda
- Khameleon
- Mavado
- Johnny Cage
- Tremor
- Ferra
Will there be a Mortal Kombat 1 Battle Pass?
Developers have announced that there will be no Battle Pass in Mortal Kombat 1 so that no player can pay their way to higher progress in the game. This update has made waves because we’re all used to paying for bigger rewards and artifacts instead of laboring through missions and challenges.
This means that absolutely all content in Mortal Kombat 1 is free and open to anyone to work up to, so while it’s good news for some, it’s probably bad news for the bigger gamers and streamers.
Wrapping Up
So which edition are you going to get, the standard or the premium edition of Mortal Kombat 1? If you want to play as the DLC characters, go with the premium edition, but if you can wait for a couple of months, you’re fine going with the standard edition and getting the Mortal Kombat 1 season pass later on.
