Back when Mortal Kombat 1 confirmed its upcoming DLC before it was released, it teased many renowned characters, including Suicide Squad's Peacemaker, but many felt that he was delayed. Now, the developers, NetherRealm Studios, confirmed the release date of John Cena's version of Peacemaker, coming to the game as a playable character for those who bought the DLC.
Some of the best baddies in pop culture were made part of the Kombat Pack DLC, best known for featuring Invincible's Omni-Man and The Boys' Homelander.

Mortal Kombat 1's official X account confirmed the arrival of Peacemaker to the game, and this will be under the "New Era" which will offer new content and experiences for all. The game team did not reveal any more additional details to the announcement and said that more details will be coming later this month for those anticipating the next releases.
The next update for Mortal Kombat 1 will bring Peacemaker, the renowned character from Suicide Squad, with this version famously known for having John Cena playing the character.
MK1 said that Peacemaker will drop in the game come Wednesday, February 28, adding the latest character to the Kombat Pack's roster which is yet to be completed.
Peacemaker is known for his excellent combat skills and use of weapons, best known for his silenced pistols, to bring mayhem and destruction.
Mortal Kombat 1's earlier leak claimed that Peacemaker is coming alongside the Season 4 update, and this recent confirmation corroborates the leak. However, Season 4, a.k.a. the New Era, will come later said the team.
It is expected to bring more experiences to gamers as it promised longer post-launch support for Mortal Kombat 1.

The revamp to the iconic, decades-old gaming franchise, Mortal Kombat, gave its series a fresh start which takes people on a new journey where they get the chance to rediscover the experience again.
In Mortal Kombat 1, there is a new threat looming over the different realms, and it is up to the chosen fighters to take arms and save the Earth Realm from nefarious entities.
While it was made known from initial leaks during a stress test of the game that the Dragon King, Onaga, is the game's central villain, renowned antagonists also join the game under a DLC. Under the Kombat Pack, NetherRealm and WB Games bring the notorious forces of Homelander, Omni-Man, Peacemaker, Ermac, Quan Chi, and Takeda to the game.
Back when Mortal Kombat 1 was released, it made the DLC available to purchase but it was not complete with the extra characters coming to the game, including the famed Suicide Squad anti-hero. Peacemaker is now making his way to the action-arcade fighting game, joining his fellow Kombat Pack baddies, Omni-Man and Quan Chi, also ushering in the new Season 4.
