If you’re going to put Invincible’s Viltrumite turncoat Omni-Man into a fighting game as infamous for its over-the-top gore like Mortal Kombat, then there’s only really one way this could’ve gone.

To celebrate the launch of Invincible season 2 on Prime Video tomorrow, Neatherrealm Studios has released a new gameplay trailer for the arrival of Omni-Man in Mortal Kombat 1, before he officially shows up to beat the snot out of Liu Kang and all his buddies next week.

Mortal Kombat 1 - Official Omni-Man Gameplay Trailer

The trailer gives us a suitably violent look at Omni-Man’s two brutal references to Invincible in his kit—his brutality, referencing his bloody beatdown on Mark in the season one finale, and then, of course, the only choice for an Omni-Man Mortal Kombat fatality: the train “crash” from the same episode. Which is even gorier than it was in Invincible, considering in Mortal Kombat Omni-Man’s opponents are nowhere near as durable as poor Mark was. Eeugh.
