The company is best known for adding guest characters via its DLCs in the previous release, with Krossplay and Joker appearing in the game, alongside the Terminator T-800, John Rambo, Spawn, and more.

Peacemaker is also a welcome addition known for his tyranny and self-centeredness, with the three others being MK's previous franchise baddies in the game.
