First up is the X-ray fatalities, which are being described as more brutal than those from Mortal Kombat 9. [Game Informer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/call-of-duty-2) writes, "The fatalities are graphic, disturbing, and yes, a guilty pleasure for many of us." Created by [Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jason-voorhees-multiversus), the Mortal Kombat X trailer is currently being developed for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, [PlayStation 3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rpcs3-overlay) and PC. It is set to be available sometime in 2015. Two new characters were featured in the trailer: a female fighter with bugs swarming around her and a large brute with a small girl riding on her shoulders. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 31% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **X-ray Fatalities:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop virtual reality gaming experiences that enhance the immersive nature of X-ray fatalities. - **Graphic and Disturbing Gameplay:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create interactive storytelling experiences that push the boundaries of graphic and disturbing content in video games. - **New Character Designs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate advanced character customization options in video games to allow players to design unique and visually striking characters. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Gaming:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate motion-sensing technologies and haptic feedback systems into gaming hardware to further enhance the gaming experience. - **Virtual Reality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop immersive virtual reality environments that allow players to engage in realistic and visceral gaming experiences. - **Entertainment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combine gaming with live-action performances and interactive elements to create hybrid entertainment experiences with a new level of engagement. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gore-Filled Mobile Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mortal-kombat-onslaught.md) - [Horror Fighting Game Characters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jason-voorhees-multiversus.md) - [Comic-Inspired Team Fighting Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marvel-tokon-fighting-souls.md) - [Next-Gen Console Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gotham-knights-1.md) - [Realistic-Graphics Video Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hellblade-ii.md) - [Returning Fan-Favorite Fighting Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multiversus-2.md) - [Punishing Open World Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phantom-blade-zero.md) - [Stylized Fighting Game Launches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/riot-games-2xko.md) - [Cross-Platform Fighting Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multiversus.md)
