MK1: Homelander and Omni-Man to Feature Unique Movesets

By IsaacApr 13,2025

In an engaging interview at Gamescom, Mortal Kombat co-founder Ed Boon shed light on how the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1 (MK1) will handle the integration of iconic characters Omni-Man and Homelander. Boon emphasized the team's commitment to ensuring that these two superheroes, despite their apparent similarities, will offer distinct gameplay experiences.

Addressing fan concerns about potential overlap in combat styles, Boon reassured the community during his chat with IGN. He outlined the creative approach MK1 developers are taking to differentiate Omni-Man and Homelander. "We have the freedom to explore various concepts with these characters," Boon stated, "but our goal is to avoid any redundancy, especially in terms of abilities that might remind players too much of Superman, like heat vision."

Boon further elaborated on how the development team has drawn inspiration from the unique actions and abilities displayed by Omni-Man and Homelander in their respective shows. These inspirations are being transformed into the characters' Fatalities and main attacks in MK1, ensuring that players will feel a significant difference between the two. "We're aware of the assumptions that they might be similar, but rest assured, they will play differently," Boon affirmed, emphasizing the team's dedication to creating two distinct heroes.
