Update: It looks like Tremor will be here sooner than anyone expects. Kombat Pack owners will be able to pick him up this Tuesday, July 21. The Klassic Skins Pack 2 will also be made available on that date. Both of these items can be picked up a la carte or as a bundle by non-Kombat Pack owners on July 28. A new Klassic Fatalities pack will also be made available this Tuesday. That will be available free of charge.

Original story: Prior to the start of today's EVO 2015 finals for Mortal Kombat X, NetherRealm had a little something to show viewers and attendees. It was the latest trailer for the next kombatant, the violent earth-shaking warrior Tremor.

Tremor could be seen dispatfching earth-based moves, including grabbing rocks and chucking them at opponents, as well as causing earthquakes. He could also manipulate the ground to create rock fists or make burning projectiles. And of course, he could raise the earth to perform some crushing Fatalities.

Tremor is coming soon and will come first to those that own the Mortal Kombat X Kombat Pack. He's expected to arrive as a standalone fighter soon after.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
