MK1 Johnny Cage is Real: Cool Cosplay

Once again Mortal Kombat has proven its status as a global cultural phenomenon. It’s been just a few days since the Early Access release (and actually only one since MK1 is out for everyone), but we already have lots of combos and cool tech discovered. Pro players publish their guides on most popular characters. And… even cosplayers have joined the party — in absolutely an amazing way.

Johnny Cage is a gem of the Mortal Kombat universe. He brings excellent humor to the epic story. His personality kind of stands out of the crowd among all those mighty sorcerers and beasts from other dimensions.

VIEL, an action actor, has shared a cool video of him bringing to life Johnny Cage’s lines from MK1. Take a look!

This feels like the start of an amazing party. We totally expect many other talented people to make digital characters real. May the example of VIEL motivate you to do the same?

Cosplay performances often happen during various fighting esports gatherings, and CEOtaku VII is a perfect place for this. It’s generally an event for anime game fans. And MK1 (despite having little connections to anime) gets a powerful spotlight. Will there be MK1 cosplay?
