Since the release of?Mortal Kombat 11?back in April, 24-hour Krypt Events have given players frequent opportunities to earn specific gear pieces that they may have not otherwise obtained. This is now possible once again, as a new?Mortal Kombat 11 Krypt Event has just begun today, December, 20. However, there is something special about today's Krypt Event, as it is giving fans access to gear that was previously only obtainable through participation in the?MK11?Kombat League.
Specifically, players that pursue?the ongoing?MK11?Krypt Event can obtain Jade's Rod of Emperor Onaga staff and Jacqui Brigg's Pridwen BH18 shield battery. As previously mentioned, the?Mortal Kombat 11?Kombat League has been the only opportunity to earn these cosmetics up to this point, and this means that today's Krypt Event will be of particular interest to players that prefer to avoid online competitive play but would still like to obtain the associated cosmetics.
With respect to how the new?Mortal Kombat 11?Krypt Event works, players must simply hunt down a gold Kronika Vault that is temporarily hidden in the Krypt in order to obtain these two rare?MK11?cosmetics. This special chest is located in the Armory, just past Goro's Lair, and the video below will provide a visual reference for those that need it. That said, players that are interested in these gear pieces will need to act fast, as the chest is set to disappear on the morning of December 21.
While some players will not be excited by the specific gear pieces offered in today's event, the idea that Kombat League cosmetics can appear in Krypt Events is a compelling one. Indeed, this?suggests that desirable Kombat League skins could be available in future Krypt Events, and this is something that?Mortal Kombat 11 fans that may have missed a season or simply prefer to avoid this type of play would likely be very happy about.
Between today's Krypt Event, an assortment of newly-released classic skins, and a series of forthcoming?Mortal Kombat 11?holiday events, it certainly seems that NetheRealm Studios is looking to keep players engaged with the title into the new year. Additionally, the developer has no plans of slowing down once 2020 arrives, with two DLC characters set for release in the first quarter, which means that now is definitely a good time to be a fan of?Mortal Kombat 11.
Mortal Kombat 11?is out now for PC, PS4, Stadia, Switch, and Xbox One.
