Former Mortal Kombat guest character Spawn is making his long-awaited return to the franchise, albeit in the Mortal Kombat Mobile spin-off rather than Mortal Kombat 1. NetherRealms Mortal Kombat games have featured special guest appearances from comics, movies, and other video games, ranging from God of Wars Kratos being a PlayStation-exclusive DLC character in 2011s Mortal Kombat 9 to Omni-Man, Peacemaker, and Homelander enforcing their twisted brands of justice in Mortal Kombat 1.
