This week's Mortal Kombat 1 update brought a surprising addition to the roster: Conan the Barbarian. But the real unexpected guest is a secret fighter – a pink-clad ninja named Floyd! No, this isn't a joke; he's a fully playable character.
Floyd is a clear homage to Pink Floyd, his introduction mirroring the band's Dark Side of the Moon album cover's light dispersion effect. Interestingly, his moveset is a blend of other ninjas' abilities, incorporating Sub-Zero's freezing powers and Scorpion's spear attacks. Adding to the fun, Floyd boasts a quirky 1337 health points.
This secret character evokes memories of Reptile, the hidden fighter from the original Mortal Kombat game. Like Reptile, Floyd's moves are a compilation of techniques from other ninjas, making him a unique and challenging opponent.
Unlocking Floyd currently appears somewhat random, though he offers clues to the required challenges. The community is actively seeking the exact method to trigger this encounter, but a definitive solution remains elusive.
