A new Mortal Kombat 1 trailer has revealed Reptile, Ashrah, and Havik have joined the list of all confirmed characters in the upcoming PS5 game, set to release on 19th September 2023. The roster of Kameo Fighters has also been refreshed with Sareena. Check out the new trailer above.
"Reptile, also known as Syzoth, is a reptiloid slave and shapeshifter from the fringes of Outworld with the ability to spew a powerful acid-like substance at opponents," it's explained. "Ashrah is a Netherrealm demon who has abandoned her evil-ridden ideologies and now fights with an enchanted Kriss dagger in her quest to find absolution. And Havik is an anarchist rebel from the oppressive realm of Seido, intent on taking down his world’s regime while leveraging a unique limb-tearing fighting style."
Reptile only featured as a cameo appearance in Mortal Kombat 11, meaning this is the first time they're playable since Mortal Kombat X. Ashrah hasn't been since Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, and the same goes for Havik, who was just a cameo in the previous two mainline entries.

Dissapointed about Sareena being relegated to kameo as she has been screaming for the chance to shine for a while as far as I'm concerned. Also her redesign looks awsome. That being said really happy Reptile is back and potentially won't be a jobber plot wise. Ashrah and Havik both look cool, even if I'm not sure I will rush to play as them (mainly talking about Ashrah here). I just want Sindel to be there as she was my main in mk11
Reptile in both human AND lizard form, lets go 🦎
Looks fantastic but I'll wait untill the complete edition. I'm busy with MK11 and it's great fun to play.
This trailer was incredible all my 3D era favs are back now expect for Nitara and it's only a matter of time before she's announced. Love Reptile's new back story and how they've compromised between classic Reptile and the crappy 2021 movie designs the lizard monster design here looks infinitely better than the awful movie. I do hope Ashra has an outfit with her hat though it's one of the iconic parts of her design so it's weird she doesn't have it here
Reptile and Ashrah upgrades. Havik, downgrade.
Really incredible trailer. Well, I’m officially happy with the roster regardless of any new additions they make. Curious who the big bad will end up being. Surely, it can’t be Shang Tsung point blank, can it?
@Keyblade-Dan Yea was a bit disappointed she didn't have the hat. Probably be some kind of classic skins pack. They love releasing those.
Every trailer gets better and now happy with the roster Reptiles in cant wait 🔥
@z0d15g0d Yeah hope Li Mei gets a classic skin too her original Deadly Alliance outfit was perfect the new one is a little bland
The game and combat look fantastic. I have this pre-ordered. But am hoping Jade or Sindel make the cut.
Good to know all ninjas are there.
Except.. Ermac?
I was hoping that with MK1 on modern gen would include a ton of characters included in-game.. MK Armageddon is still one of my favorites due to the huge roster.. second to that I was really hoping for an RPG Shaolin Monks-type successor.. lookin like just a prettier version of MK11 so far minus the Krypt (which has been a staple for years).. I might pass on this one for the first time ever on a MK release
Can't believe we're getting Reptile! Although personally I'll be playing as Subzero and Scorpion. This one is shaping up to be something special!
@Blacksmith1985 Ermac will be in the first DLC pack
Thumbs-ups for the return of Reptile, and now in both human and lizard form, hype!
Reptile having both a human and reptile form is such a smart move, I'm actually surprised it NR studio haven't done it before, it was usually one or the other.
Also Havik is just as gross looking as ever to me lol
@Kanji-Tatsumi where we going?
