Just last week, NetherRealm Studios released Peacemaker as a paid DLC fighter in Mortal Kombat 1. While that patch included a host of fighter adjustments, it seems NetherRealm isn’t done yet. The studio released the Mortal Kombat 1 March hotfix, and this includes another round of fighter adjustments and more.
For those wondering, this is a server-side update, which means there is no need for a download for these changes to take effect.
