Dataminers have discovered evidence suggesting that Ghostface from Scream will join the Mortal Kombat 1 roster as a DLC character in the future. In Mortal Kombat 1, like many other fighting games, players can add guest fighters to their lineup.
So far, all guest fighters in Mortal Kombat 1 have been characters from comic books. However, leaks suggest that upcoming DLC may include fighters from other sources.
The first Kombat Pack for Mortal Kombat 1 includes Omni-Man from Invincible, Peacemaker from the DC Comics and HBO series starring John Cena, and Homelander from The Boys.
Leaks have hinted at a second Kombat Pack that would add more guest fighters, but NetherRealm has not confirmed this officially. The recent data supports these leaks, adding credibility to the idea of new DLC fighters joining the game.
Mortal Kombat 1 Leaks
Interloko found evidence that Ghostface from Scream will join Mortal Kombat 1. Mileena’s announcer voice lines say “Ghostface,” which is strong evidence. However, Mortal Kombat data mine leaks haven’t always been accurate.
First Video of the day:

For example, there were leaks about Ash Williams from Evil Dead being in Mortal Kombat 11, but that never happened.
This isn’t the first time Ghostface has been leaked for Mortal Kombat 1 DLC. Last year, the thing leaked potential DLC characters, including Noob Saibot, Cyrax, Kotal/He-Man/Conan, Ghostface, an unknown girl, Jade, Cassie Cage, and Kung Jin. The new voice line supports this previous leak, suggesting these characters could be added to Mortal Kombat 1 in the future.
Ghostface in Mortal Kombat 1
As Mortal Kombat 1 nears the end of its first Kombat Pack, there’s talk about the second Kombat Pack possibly including Ghostface, the recurring villain from the Scream movies.
This leak comes from Interloko, a well-known Mortal Kombat data miner. In a video they posted, you can hear Mileena, one of the game’s main characters, announcing various names, including Ghostface.
It’s important to note that Ghostface hasn’t been officially announced yet. The current Kombat Pack still has one character left, Takahashi Takeda. However, this leak lines up with something Ed Boon, a creator of the game, posted on Twitter last year.

In that post, he shared a photo with well-known movie slashers like Chucky, Leatherface, and Ghostface, each with a question mark over their head, indicating characters yet to be included in the game. Based on this leak, that picture might be a hint of what’s to come.
For those who aren’t familiar with Ghostface, they are the main bad guy in the Scream movies. They wear a ghost-like mask and use a big knife to kill people in a bloody way. What’s unique about Ghostface is that it’s never just one person.
In each movie, it’s a new person or sometimes a few people who take turns wearing the mask. Many of their moves and finishing moves will likely have to do with their knife and maybe their different identities.
Mortal Kombat has a history of adding characters from other movies and shows to their game. The most recent Kombat Pack had DC’s Peacemaker, Omni-Man, and most recently, Homelander from The Boys.
