Leaked Mortal Kombat X Achievements Reveal New Playable Characters, Alternate Costumes, and More

With Mortal Kombat X’s release just under a month away, information recently leaked online regarding what kinds of achievements it will offer to people who love to boost numbers that don’t really mean anything. While these are all well and good, they don’t really tell us anything…until you look at their corresponding images, that is.

Screenshots attached to these achievements unveil a number of juicy morsels, including confirmation that Jax Briggs and newcomer Erron Black and will be playable in the upcoming title, our first in-game looks at characters like Goro and Shinnok, and some glimpses of possible alternate costumes.

We’ve included all of the pertinent images below, so if you are worried about getting caught up in any more spoilers, stop reading here. Of course, as this is a Mortal Kombat game, you can also expect some blood; be wary if you are bothered by such things.

Watch Pop Culture Shock’s Amazing Akuma Statue Go From Concept to Reality

The folks over at Pop Culture Shock are currently crafting an amazing 1:3 scale statue for Street Fighter’s Akuma. Standing at a whopping 36 inches tall, the statue represents one of the largest figures ever made for a fighting game character.

To showcase their handiwork, BornFreeYT recently released a video that shows, in photos, the individual steps involved in sculpting this monster of a figure, all of which were originally shared by Pop Culture Shock themselves.

BornFreeYT has also put together quite a few video guides for Pop Culture Shock’s other Street Fighter figures. If you’re interested in the quality of these collectibles, be sure to check out his full playlist for in-depth looks at how they stack up.
