@@Jsipki265 he does has magic powers. Like Rambo. There was a move when he magically picks up a chunk a rock off the ground and his whip trap move. They gave normal people magic powers
That's why they need to get back to making different fighting games than just Mortal Kombat. It's clear that the team wants to branch out into doing other stuff especially with all the licensing opportunities they get now.
@@MrSkerpentine Because he's slow? Literally, he never run so there's an advantage. Jason is a revenant, meaning a zombie, so he has supernatural strength, durability, etc. Also, Jason has killed many teenagers, usually leaving only one survivor you know. It's not like all the teenagers survived and fought Jason.
- Shang Tsung morphs into Ghostface - As Ghostface for a duration, tags in Enforcer or Assassin (E/A) - E/A morphs back to Shang Tsung - confusion begins E/A: "Wait, am I Shang Tsung now?" Ghostface: Always has been. (reveals himself as Shang Tsung)
I love when Johnny says during the fatality “he’s just a dude with a knife”….. literally a flip of the middle finger to all the people complaining about Ghostface being included in this game. Can’t wait to get my hands on this character.
It’s also a direct nod to a scene in the original Scream where Randy Meeks almost gets snuck up on and killed by Ghostface because he’s too busy watching Halloween and calling Laurie Strode a dumbass for not noticing the killer right behind her lol
Crazy how Ghostface has all these really cool mechanics and callbacks in his gameplay and people are still calling him a bad guest character because he’s just a dude with a knife and he couldn’t stack up to the likes of Omni-Man or Liu Kang. This of course not being a complaint leveraged against normal powerless human Johnny Cage.
There’s a weirdly large amount of people that focus way too much on the idea that fights need to be possible in canon. I genuinely don’t understand why it’s a problem if a character is “too powerful” or “too weak” for Mortal Kombat, or if a DLC character doesn’t fit into the canon story.
Kobra and Kira also returning to be the extra ghostfaces is so awesome. He plays so much like his terrorodrome version too, he may be the most fun guest and maybe even DLC character we’ve got in the game so far
I remember how overly used the Halloween costume was in the late 90s. What separated the common costume from the best, was that mask that had the gooshy blood implemented 😅
You just awakened a memory from my childhood regarding that mask. I was 6 years old when I got it. Was a gift from my uncle. I thought it was one of the coolest things ever. I had NO idea what Scream or Ghostface was, I only knew that the mask was cool. The teachers at my school were not of the same opinion, especially not with the fake blood. Then again, Norway was in a bizarre place in the late 90's. A-okay with the kids watching seas of blood & gore in cartoons & anime, not a-okay with toy blood. >:U
"WASSUP!" Gotta say that Ghostface's Moveset looks Incredible, the callbacks along with references from the Movies are Great. But they went all out with that Fatality, really creative and Awesome!
I suppose the animality is a callback to "My Soul to Take" from Wes Craven, the same director from Scream. In it, a serial killer's soul is reincarnated but split into different individuals, one of them eventually becoming a serial killer again that targets the other reincarnated kids. The serial killer has a close association to condors and it comes up very often.
Nahh, the Ghostface that came running with a frying pan to bonk Sub Zero on the head 🤣🤣 Wish he had a intro that said *WUZZAAAAAPPP!!* tho If you know you know. 💀🔪
A good portion of the roster is actually very interesting gameplay wise. I gotta give them credit for that. There's also never been an assist based fighter with this level of creativity. The game is coming along.
He actually looks better than what I thought. I like how Kobra and Kira are getting some shine as the other killers. Makes me wonder how T-1000 is gonna be because I’m looking forward to him.
Think this is the most fun they’ve had with a guest character. Was really interested to see how they would do Ghostface and I’m very impressed, haven’t seen scream but I know of it and I’m pretty excited to try him out. References are great and that fatality XD
9:30 “why would it do that?” Lmaoo I love max being excited and immediately noticing how crazy that restand is. Smoke boutta be crushing souls in this game now lmao
Ghost face is perfect with the meta around him and them choosing to showcase Johnny as the victim in the fatality is perfect "a dude with a knife" kills another dude without a knife, as the same complaint about ghost face being in MK can be used for Johnny, makes the point very clear.
Ghostface is one of the best slasher villain's in movie History. i like him more than Jason, Freddy, Leatherface and Michael Myers. so glad he is coming to MK1 and with the original Voice actor.
@@bruuuuuuuuhhhh Man get that soft sht outta here. Nobody was disrespectful at all for you to say that LMAO. Mk1 turned the scene soft and Ghostface is a wasted slot.
The loud stinger he gets from dash into hit is so iconic. The fact people are downplaying how significant this inclusion is blows my mind. Also the fact the Enforcer and Assassin are NRS cameos under the garb? Man, that is just so freaking clever.
Kinda of a clever play on words with the old "People who live in glass houses..." saying and Sub-Zero does throw stones...and is perhaps literally cold-hearted.
@@mikea5817 So, if Sub-Zero says "cool" or "kick some ice" yada yada, the "pot calling the kettle black" in what way relates to what Ghostface says in that context? For the record, the full saying is: "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones."
@@DanteMasaru both of these idioms are criticizing others for a flaw that you yourself have and that's what ghostface is saying since sub called him cold hearted, I'm not saying it doesn't work since he can be saying he's literally cold hearted cause he's sub zero or pointing out he's pretty dark himself. I'm just pointing out that there are always cold related word play intros when it comes to sub zero and it's usually some variation of that
@@mikea5817 Yeah but the "throwing stones" in the phrase it is in reference to is more apt, considering...well, what I said in my original post about what Sub-Zero does in a number of his attacks as well as his possible ice-related physiology (Despite Sub-Zero using "cold-hearted" metaphorically in this case). Something of a double entendre. Now, imagine Ghostface saying something something in reference to the "kettle" saying in response to Noob Saibot along the lines of "having a dark heart" or something. Puns in MK are just limited to ice, or at least they don't have to be.
I love that MK guests have the same energy of “what if goku was in smash bros” but then he actually *was* in it. With the same amount of references and callbacks to boot.
These devs have such interesting and genius ways of brining these characters into a fighting game and the MK universe with in depth call backs and lore.
@ yes of course, its absolutely sick that Kobra is back but its even funnier that they made the animation almost 1:1 with the flash kick😂 looks great too i love it
30:23 I met Roger L. Jackson (the legend who has voiced Ghostface for years) at a convention this year and he confirmed he voiced the character for MK (:
I find it hilarious that Ghostface is such a badass fighter in this game, when in all of the movies he’s actually a sloppy and horrible fighter who gets his ass kicked all the time. Even as a kid when I first watched these movie I kept on screaming at the characters “okay you’ve knocked him down, now go for his knife and either get it away from him or stab him with it!” I’d love for the next Scream movie to have a Ghostface who fights an experienced martial artist or self defense expert and have this Ghostface beat them showing how he or she is an even more skilled fighter.
I have not been interested in a MK or any NR game since MKX, I’ve been focused on Capcom and Arcsys but seeing my absolute favorite horror icon be implemented in such a creative and unique way shows he’s really deserving of a cameo spot and they took the time to make him work within this games’ new universe. I hope Arcsys looks at Lucy like that in some way, and other developers look at how they can bend their own games without sacrificing integrity or spirit on either IP’s end. I cannot wait to try this out
i think sereena is hands down going to be a top kameo for ghostface just for the fact that he is very meter hungry and the rune now gives meter regen and damage bonus
Every move he does is a reference every light and heavy attack are all moves he did in the movies, the run animation is from 2 ending during the theatre bit that’s exactly how he runs, the voice recorder is the same model from the original scream, each of the knives are different due to the different killers 1:46 mark is one of the almost kills from the latest movie near the end if you had three it would fully complete that sequence, there is another as well from scream 5 aka the Dewey one even when he kicks it’s the same as kicking Dewey to the ground have splitting him from stomach to back it’s the same, this characters have so so many ref to the movies almost everything he does is from except for the animal stuff and powers lol even the ring from the phone is the same ring sound from the original movie too, yea huge horror nerd so it was awesome to see all the references in everything ghost face does to the point you can pin point which movie and where in each movie each move is from.
You would think that a mere, knife-wielding slasher villain would be pretty basic, but the lengths NRS have made to truly flesh out Ghostface is nothing short of incredible.
I like how they put Kira and Kobra in the game as the other Ghostfaces/partners in crime. I feel like I may use Kira, she's the one with some zoning tools.
@just_2swift Hey just in time! 😅Bad joke sorry lol. Yeah I hear ya that would have been cool. I was curious if maybe we'd see Kira but now I guess not. Still hope for Skarlett and possibly Jade at some point maybe KP 3?
Guest characters are the best part. I don't even play the base characters. I just wait for the DLC and level them up completely through invasions! I love the guest characters the most😂
Ghostface is both Bloody Brutal and a Black Dragon Representation in MK1, HBTW and I think Dynasty both Call It that it’s both Kobra and Kira with the Anonymous Ghostface as the Ring Leader of this Scary Movie Cult like having 3 Killers from Scream 6 and this Psycho Fanatic Legion are Perfect in the Game as have the best of both worlds MK and Guest Characters in the Price of One, so much References to the Scream Movies that you have to be Crazy to point out all of them, Roger L. Jackson like Always is Fantastic as Ghostface, his Reeks Horror and Disturbing Chilling and I Love It, the details of Kira’s Knife Fighting Style, Kiss of Death Poison Mist, and the Kano Ball Roll and Kobra’s Fire, Flit, and Windmill Kicks is Brilliant as it has the 3 Variation Mechanics in MKX, the Fatalities and Gruesome, and while I was hoping a Orca Animality, I like the Vulture One probably a Bias as I love Birds, 9 out of 10, That Brutality is so Hilarious to one of my Favorite Moments in the Franchise that’s both a Real Story in its Meaning and I will never get tired of “Faouk Bruce Willis” as for the Rest They Know We Know those 2 Ghostfaces are Kira and Kobra, they can’t lie that those are their respective Movesets and Traits, the Only Mystery is who’s the Main Ring Leader? I will honestly love it if it’s Roman as he like Scream 3 is Extremely Underrated like Stephanie said but is probably Billy and Stu, we Billy is more Likely, love the Buffs, and MK2 Kitana never looked so Flawless.
@hydra_drizz2164 you'd be surprised how many people have said the game is low budget and just straight garbage and actually mean low budget and straight garbage
I have a feeling the reason why ghost face didn’t come out holloween was that scream came out on Christmas . Released on December 20, 1996, Scream was not expected to perform well due to concerns over releasing a slasher film in a time normally reserved for holiday entertainment, but it went on to gross approximately $173 million worldwide through the strength of word of mouth,
28:10 I'm too unskilled for stuff like this lol. I just use special moves and a couple uppercuts and throws. I only play against the easy AI just to have fun. I can't wrap my head around combos like that!😂
Kira and Kobra Ghostface Lore: They went crazy from being rejected from being in the MK Games before MK1 and now that they are back, they came back with a vengeance.
I love how all the naysayers first complaint has always been, "how does ghostface in MK make any sense whatsoever". Never once thinking about the obvious fact that it's former MK characters under the mask😅 Yes, we can have the awesomeness of having the Scream killer in the game... while also having MK characters being underneath. Anyone talking shit has obviously never even seen the movies. He's not one guy, never the same guy, it can literally be anyone. It's not like Jason or Freddy
As someone who sucks at the game and only plays against easy AI, Smoke is my favorite character so Ghostface seems similar enough that I hope I'm better with him (or them I guess, I've never seen the movies lol) than other DLC characters!😂
I realized that the reason they make certain moves 2 meters is bc those are tools that youre supposed to get from a Kameo. So if a character can cover one of his/hers flaws with meter instead of selecting a few specific Kameos that do it, it should be more expensive to cover that
The fact that they implemented multiple killers is great and the fact that they had him recruit from the Black Dragon is even better, Fatality is *chef's kiss*
I love the references to Billy and the Dewey kill from Scream 5
I thought Ghost Face would have normal moves like Rambo. And now he has magic or powers?

@MKF30 same!
@@just_2swift Yep hope you're doing well. Who do you like to use in this game?
@MKF30 Havik but I always played him
I wasn’t excited for MK1 so I didn’t get it on launch but Ghostface looks so cool I kinda want to get the game now!
Incase you didn't get it there's 3 ghostfaces One is The Classic and then the other 2 is Kobra And Kira From Mk Deception
Guest characters are the best part. I don't even play the base characters. I just wait for the DLC and level them up completely through invasions! I love the guest characters the most😂
Ghostface is both Bloody Brutal and a Black Dragon Representation in MK1, HBTW and I think Dynasty both Call It that it’s both Kobra and Kira with the Anonymous Ghostface as the Ring Leader of this Scary Movie Cult like having 3 Killers from Scream 6 and this Psycho Fanatic Legion are Perfect in the Game as have the best of both worlds MK and Guest Characters in the Price of One, so much References to the Scream Movies that you have to be Crazy to point out all of them, Roger L. Jackson like Always is Fantastic as Ghostface, his Reeks Horror and Disturbing Chilling and I Love It, the details of Kira’s Knife Fighting Style, Kiss of Death Poison Mist, and the Kano Ball Roll and Kobra’s Fire, Flit, and Windmill Kicks is Brilliant as it has the 3 Variation Mechanics in MKX, the Fatalities and Gruesome, and while I was hoping a Orca Animality, I like the Vulture One probably a Bias as I love Birds, 9 out of 10, That Brutality is so Hilarious to one of my Favorite Moments in the Franchise that’s both a Real Story in its Meaning and I will never get tired of “Faouk Bruce Willis” as for the Rest They Know We Know those 2 Ghostfaces are Kira and Kobra, they can’t lie that those are their respective Movesets and Traits, the Only Mystery is who’s the Main Ring Leader? I will honestly love it if it’s Roman as he like Scream 3 is Extremely Underrated like Stephanie said but is probably Billy and Stu, we Billy is more Likely, love the Buffs, and MK2 Kitana never looked so Flawless.
Why do you type like this? I feel like I'm on a rollercoaster ride with all these ups and downs with capital letters.
Man they did him justice i swear no one gives guest characters justice like Mortal Kombat and people say this game is low budget lol
No one is saying the game is low budget they are saying it's unfinished for its price tag which is true
@hydra_drizz2164 you'd be surprised how many people have said the game is low budget and just straight garbage and actually mean low budget and straight garbage
Phone call should sounds with " Wazaaaaaaaap"
They legitimately built in his tripping and falling down as part of his move set. What the hell world are we living in?
This is becoming the best and most complex mk ever! I see why WB is prioritizing this game
I have a feeling the reason why ghost face didn’t come out holloween was that scream came out on Christmas . Released on December 20, 1996, Scream was not expected to perform well due to concerns over releasing a slasher film in a time normally reserved for holiday entertainment, but it went on to gross approximately $173 million worldwide through the strength of word of mouth,
Ever since Ermac's release MK1 has been a good game. The stumbled but finally picked it up
Also, yeah Ghost Face easily has the best fatality in the game.
Very scary stuff. Something about getting straight up shanked makes it seem so real, as opposed to magic or elemental attacks.
Not exactly new to MK since Kano used to do a whole lot of shanking, but with him absent someone had to do it I guess
@@mikea5817
Nah, Reiko in this..but instead shanking you alive, he speared and impaled you alive 💀
28:10 I'm too unskilled for stuff like this lol. I just use special moves and a couple uppercuts and throws. I only play against the easy AI just to have fun. I can't wrap my head around combos like that!😂
Your right Max its a Condor, a Californian Condor
30:33 The voice actor for Ghostface in the game is Roger L. Jackson, he voices Ghostface in all the Scream films.
Dope dope Ghostface is the most accurate, perfectly adapted horror guest brought into Mk.
You’ve been living under a rock
I love that almost every. single. move. is just him using the knife.
Remember 'Kano', a "guy with a knife"! Nah, give Noob Saibot a knife and call it a day
Kira and Kobra Ghostface Lore: They went crazy from being rejected from being in the MK Games before MK1 and now that they are back, they came back with a vengeance.
Mandatory "Wassuuup!" comment.
this character is pretty cool because it fixes really well with MK franchise
The triple freeze thing reminds me of those old MK vs SF animations
I love how all the naysayers first complaint has always been, "how does ghostface in MK make any sense whatsoever". Never once thinking about the obvious fact that it's former MK characters under the mask😅 Yes, we can have the awesomeness of having the Scream killer in the game... while also having MK characters being underneath. Anyone talking shit has obviously never even seen the movies. He's not one guy, never the same guy, it can literally be anyone. It's not like Jason or Freddy
remember guys hes not teleporting or cloning himself, theres multiples ghostfaces!
As someone who sucks at the game and only plays against easy AI, Smoke is my favorite character so Ghostface seems similar enough that I hope I'm better with him (or them I guess, I've never seen the movies lol) than other DLC characters!😂
So its Billy Loomis, Kira and Cobra
20/10
The way he runs when he teleports is killing me 🤣🤣🤣🤣 They did such a good job with him.
10:22 this is one of the sickest MK combos I've ever seen
Sounds more like the OG VA for the Ghostface voicebox (as the box never worked, they hired a VA to play the "Altered Voice")
2 of the Ghostfaces' identities are Kira and Kobra which is a cool way to sneak in 3D era characters
He's just a guy with a knife in a game where everyone has super human abilities. How bad could he...... Oooooooh.. 💀
Good ol' NRS, make the game balanced by making characters more broken. The same drum being beaten for 10 years now.
I realized that the reason they make certain moves 2 meters is bc those are tools that youre supposed to get from a Kameo. So if a character can cover one of his/hers flaws with meter instead of selecting a few specific Kameos that do it, it should be more expensive to cover that
