Warner Bros. and DC are currently holdingDC FanDomeonline, an event packed full of news and reveals for the latest DC Comics films, TV shows, and video games.Gotham Knightshas already been revealed, and later tonight Rocksteady’sSuicide Squadgame will be unveiled. NetherRealm Studios saw an opportunity in all the hype to try and getMortal Kombat 11some of the spotlight, too. To celebrate the occasion, NetherRealm is bringing back Arkham Anarchy.
For those unfamiliar, Arkham Anarchy is a special Tower event inMortal Kombat 11,though it’s not anything particularly unique or special. This isn’t the first time that the Arkham Anarchy event has been available inMortal Kombat 11and it very likely won’t be the last, either. But it’s nevertheless an appropriate event for DC FanDome, since the reward for Arkham Anarchy is a unique skin for the Joker.

The final opponent inMortal Kombat 11’s Arkham Anarchy Tower is none other than theJoker, wearing an assortment of gearincluding the Playful Predator disguise, the Ugly Stick Kane, and the orange Gotham Anarchist skin. It’s not even a particularly rare Tower, in fact. Rather, it’s a Rapid Tower bumps up to a Premiere for the event. DedicatedMortal Kombat 11players likely already have the gear available unlocked, too, but it’s better than nothing.
Funnily enough, there wasn’t anything Joker-related announced or revealed during the DC FanDome event. Joker’s just the DC character thatNetherRealmhas inMortal Kombat 11, so WB’s going to put him to use.
There is one elephant in the room that isn’t being addressed, of course, that being that NetherRealm was rumored to be announcingInjustice 3at DC FanDome, coinciding with the reveal of anewInjusticecomic namedYear Zero. It’s now looking like the newInjusticeis not going to be introduced this weekend and NetherRealm will not be announcing anything. The Joker Tower is even less exciting in that comparison.
It isn’t clear why the rumoredInjusticeannouncement didn’t happen, but this past week DC confirmed thatinstead of one FanDome event there would now be two. The second DC FanDome is scheduled for September 12 and is subtitled “Explore the Multiverse.” A schedule for this second event has not been revealed yet, but NetherRealm fans should keep their eyes open forInjustice,though a reveal isn’t a guarantee there, either.
Mortal Kombat 11is available now on PC, PS4, Stadia, Switch, and Xbox One.
