When the game launched in 2019, there were only 25 characters available. Fortunately, 23 characters were part of the default roster that players could select from the start. Players would need to complete Chapter 4 in Story mode to unlock the fighter Frost. Shao Kahn was a pre-order bonus for early purchasers of the game, but he is now a DLC fighter who costs $5.99.
