Mortal Kombat X Adding Predator in July

The next downloadable character for Mortal Kombat X, Predator, will be available sometime in July.

Series creator Ed Boon, never one to shy away from teasing announcements on Twitter, tweeted this week saying, "Recreate the Predator Movie (Komplete with Carl Weathers Jax) in Mortal Kombat X. Koming Soon…" This was accompanied by the screenshot below, showing Predator and Jax squaring off with "July" in the bottom-right corner.

Predator will mark the third DLC character to be released for the game following Jason Voorhees and Tanya. All three characters were previously confirmed to be coming as DLC along with Tremor. So far, they've each been made available as their own individual purchases as well as in the $30 Kombat Pack.

If you want to try Predator without paying, you just have to be patient--like regular characters, DLC fighters may be featured in the game's challenge tower, allowing everyone a chance to fight as them.
