Let's be honest: Mortal Kombat 1's future looks uncertain. Rumors suggest Season 3 content has been scrapped due to disappointing sales, and the recently released Pro Kompetition trailer, while attempting to generate excitement, falls short.

The Pro Kompetition 2025 esports circuit boasts a total prize pool of $255,000. Even by fighting game community (FGC) standards, this is a relatively small amount in 2025. This low prize money has been a source of frustration for top players, making international travel for potentially meager earnings unsustainable.

The competitive scene in 2025 is likely to be geographically divided, with a significant portion of players competing in North American tournaments and another group focusing on European events. These two pools will likely only converge at EVO 2025, considered the premier fighting game tournament of the year.

While the marketing efforts generate excitement and hype, particularly with the teased in-game image of the T-1000, the underlying reality is concerning. The low prize pool and geographical segmentation paint a less-than-optimistic picture for the game's long-term competitive viability.
