These series of tweets confirm that the companies behind the "Mortal Kombat X" are indeed working on a "Kombat Pack 3" expansion. There are even talks that a "Mortal Kombat XL" version might soon be released. Details about the latter are virtually nonexistent as of yet, other than it is a possibility.
As fans have speculated, the "Mortal Kombat X: Kombat Pack 3" has been delayed due to the many other priorities of NetherRealm Studios. The game developer is still reportedly working on the DC Universe-based cross platform fighting game "Injustice 2." However, hopes are up for the "Kombat Pack 3" as the official release date for "Injustice 2" is fast approaching.
