Until March 9, Mortal Kombat 11 is free to play on both PS4 and Xbox One. Those that participate in the Mortal Kombat 11 free trial can try the entirety of the game without paying a dime, in addition to some of its DLC. That’s because Warner Bros. Interactive has made The Joker DLC free as part of the trial as well. Unfortunately for those on PC, Switch, and Google Stadia, it appears as though their platform of choice is left out of the free trial lineup.

Making The Joker free to play for a limited time seems like a good way to convince players to not just pick up Mortal Kombat 11, but its Kombat Pack as well. For the uninitiated, the Mortal Kombat 11 Kombat Pack is the game’s equivalent to a season pass, adding six more characters to the base game’s already-impressive roster of fighters. The Joker is joined by Night Wolf, The Terminator, Sindel, Shang Tsung, and Spawn.
It’s possible that NetherRealm will develop a second Kombat Pack after Spawn is added later this month. Rumors and supposed “leaks” have certainly pointed in that direction, with a number of characters rumored for the Mortal Kombat 11 Kombat Pack 2.
One of the most commonly cited guest characters rumored for Mortal Kombat 11 Kombat Pack is Ash from Evil Dead. Other characters have been rumored as well, including Fujin, Sheeva, Takeda, Havik, and even Halloween’s Michael Myers. But since NetherRealm has so far refrained from committing to a Kombat Pack 2, there’s nothing really backing these rumors up at this point in time.
After Mortal Kombat 11 adds the Spawn DLC to the game on March 17, NetherRealm may be more open about the game’s future or what’s next from the studio if it’s not making more MK11 content. We’ll find out in a couple of weeks time.
Mortal Kombat 11 is out now for PC, PS4, Stadia, Switch, and Xbox One.
