How to unlock characters in Mortal Kombat 11: Add DLC fighters to your roster

Mortal Kombat features an incredible roster of fighters available to the player, and it even includes some pop culture icons. Here’s how you unlock characters in Mortal Kombat 11.

Mortal Kombat has been introducing robust rosters since the franchise rebooted back in Mortal Kombat (2011) as Netherrealm Studios expanded its scope and began including guest characters.

Now, with Mortal Kombat 11, the franchise has doubled down on its diverse roster with DLC, including the likes of Robocop and Spawn.

A lot of the game’s characters come unlocked by default, but Mortal Kombat players can unlock even more through the use of DLC.
