How to unlock characters in Mortal Kombat 11: Add DLC fighters to your roster

With a wide variety of fighters to pick from, Mortal Kombat 11 features both iconic figures from popular culture and legendary characters from the game. Let’s take a look at how you can unlock these characters.

The Mortal Kombat franchise has been featuring extensive rosters since its reboot in 2011, with Netherrealm Studios widening the game’s universe to incorporate guest characters.

Now, with Mortal Kombat 11, the franchise has doubled down on its diverse roster with DLC, including the likes of Robocop, Spawn, and even the Terminator.

A lot of the game’s characters come unlocked by default, but Mortal Kombat players can unlock even more through the game’s DLC.
