Kabal's presence on the roster did raise some questions. It didn't take much time for viewers to assume that this was the speedster Kabal, last seen in the 2011 Mortal Kombat reboot. As the topic of the first Kombat Kast came up, a blurry figure could be seen racing across the MK11 logo. Kabal was initially teased during the January 17 MK11: The Reveal event. The studio jumped on Twitch to reveal details about the game's next character. As promised back during the MK11: The Reveal event, NetherRealm Studios has returned with a special livestream to reveal new information about Mortal Kombat 11.
