Madame Bova Joins Mortal Kombat 1

NetherRealm Studios has unveiled Madame Bo, a captivating new Kameo fighter joining the roster of Mortal Kombat 1. The recently released trailer showcases her distinctive fighting style, utilizing bottles as weapons, employing blinding tactics, and culminating in a breathtaking, tea-house themed Fatality. The visuals are stunning and unforgettable.

Within the MK1 storyline, Madame Bo operates a tea house and serves as a mentor to Kung Lao and Raiden. She’s the second Kameo fighter revealed for the upcoming DLC pack, following the previously announced T-1000 (a fully playable character).

Intriguingly, a fan theory posits that Madame Bo is, in fact, a reimagined Bo' Rai Cho in this new timeline. This speculation stems from her name, fighting techniques, use of alcohol (a nod to Bo' Rai Cho's fondness for sake), and a shared penchant for less-than-healthy habits (smoking in Madame Bo's case). Given Liu Kang's established practice of altering character identities in the game's narrative, this theory holds considerable weight.

Madame Bo will be available to Kombat Pack 2 and Khaos Reigns owners starting March 18th. All other players can unlock her starting March 25th.
