This week's Mortal Kombat 1 update brought a surprising addition to the roster: Conan the Barbarian. But an unannounced, unexpected character also joined the fray – a pink-clad ninja named Floyd! No, it's not a joke; he's a genuine, albeit secret, fighter.
The character is a clear nod to the iconic Pink Floyd. Floyd's introduction mirrors the band's Dark Side of the Moon album cover, showcasing a light prism effect. Interestingly, his moveset is a blend of techniques borrowed from other ninjas in the game, incorporating Sub-Zero's freezing abilities and Scorpion's spear attacks. As a fun detail, Floyd boasts a health bar of 1337 points.
Long-time Mortal Kombat fans might experience a sense of déjà vu. This secret character mechanic echoes the original Mortal Kombat's hidden fighter, Reptile. Reptile, notoriously difficult to unlock and defeat, also utilized a moveset compiled from other ninjas.
Currently, players are actively searching for the precise method to unlock Floyd, as his appearance seems somewhat random, despite cryptic hints dropped by the character himself regarding required challenges. A definitive unlock method remains unconfirmed.
