Who is the best Mortal Kombat X player in North America and Europe? NetherRealm and Warner Bros. want to know, that's why they teamed up with ESL ("the world's largest esports company") to create Who’s Next? Mortal Kombat X Worldwide Competitive Program.
This program will include the Fatal 8 Exhibition Tournament, ESL Mortal Kombat X Pro League Tournament and the Mortal Kombat Cup and will give people the chance to compete for a prize pool that starts at $100,000 (US).
This is how the Who’s Next? Mortal Kombat X Worldwide Competitive Program will play out.
