Mortal Kombat 11 Online Stress Test Coming In March Before The Beta

Mortal Kombat 11 is coming soon, but depending on your level of bloodlust, it might not be soon enough. If you just can't wait to start snapping tendons and ripping spleens in comically over-the-top fashion, you'll be pleased to know that you might be able to play as early as March 15-17.

That's when NetherRealm is planning an online stress test for the game. It's only in the US, and only on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions. Plus space will be limited and randomly selected, so you'll have to register for a chance to enter the test.

This will put the servers through their paces before the other beta test, which will be available for PS4 and Xbox One pre-orders. That test will run from March 28-31. Pre-ordering will also net you Shao Kahn as a playable character.

The announcement came as part of the latest Kombat Kast, which also heralded the return of Johnny Cage. He plays with all the cheesy Hollywood bravado you've come to expect, along with some new moves like a camera flash stunner and the ability to call in a stunt double for some truly unfair double-teaming.

The regular Kombat Kast streams are slowly growing the character roster, and this time each character has a swath of cosmetic (ahem, kosmetic) options to choose from.

While both the online stress test and the pre-order beta are only available on PS4 and Xbox One, the full game will also be coming to PC and Nintendo Switch. It will hit all platforms on April 23.

And on the October 30 episode of TNT's weekly wrestling show, AEW Dynamite, Omega showed off his love for Undertale . Before he entered the ring, his video package played a 16-bit cutscene that was very reminiscent of the game, featuring a yellow and red disembodied head, which is totally a knock at the New Japan Pro Wrestling's logo--a company Omega wrestled for--explaining Omega left all his friends and now, he's all alone. This includes a silhouette of Omega's former tag team partner, Kota Ibushi. You can check out the video for yourself below. The sound effects and dialogue from the end of that section are taken directly from Undertale. After the video package ended, Omega entered wearing a Sans mask, while Megalovania--the song from the game--played in the arena. Surprisingly, this worked incredibly well as entrance music for one of t...
