Johnny Cage is confirmed to be in Mortal Kombat X.
Christian Post Report – Mortal Kombat X is set for release in about a month, and NetherRealm has confirmed that a classic character is about to make his return in the upcoming game.
It has been confirmed that Johnny Cage will be a playable character in the latest installment of the Mortal Kombat series. The character made his first appearance in the very first Mortal Kombat game which was launched in 1992.
“You’ll get to play as Johnny Cage, but we’re also showing Cassie Cage who is the daughter of Sonya [Blade] and Johnny,” said NetherRealm Studio’s senior producer Adam Urbano to IGN. “You’ll get a chance to see Kenshi and a chance to see a couple more.”
Johnny Cage, whose real name is John Carlton, is an arrogant and overconfident martial arts film actor who usually provides the comic relief in the franchise. The character is modeled after martial arts film actor John Claude Van Damme.
Meanwhile, Kenshi is a blind swordsman who possesses psychokinetic powers and is often seen in the company of Cage. The character debuted in 2002’s Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance.
The new game picks up 25 years into the future where the 2011 Mortal Kombat reboot leaves off, and classic and new characters will battle along with the next-generation children of the older fighters.
Joining Johnny, Cassie, and Kenshi in Mortal Kombat X are D’Vorah, Ermac, Ferra/Torr, Goro, Jacqueline Briggs, Kano, Kitana, Kotal Khan, Kung Jin, Kung Lao, Quan Chi, Raiden, Reptile, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and Takahashi Takeda.
Mortal Kombat X releases worldwide on April 14, 2015 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3. Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC.
