Ghostface has been introduced as a character in Mortal Kombat 1, revealing Billy Loomis from the original Scream film as the face behind the mask. In a Ghostface mirror match, dialogue reveals the second Ghostface as Stu Macher, though no model for Stu exists. Additionally, Ghostface can switch to two other characters, The Enforcer and The Assassin, linked to Kobra and Kira from Mortal Kombat: Deception. Despite these transformations, the face under the mask remains Billy's. Ghostface is voiced by Roger L. Jackson, with Conan the Barbarian and T-1000 Terminator set to join next.
Ghostface from the Scream series is set to join Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns as a DLC character, featuring a unique Animality where he transforms into a vulture. This finisher involves Ghostface, as a vulture, gruesomely attacking Johnny Cage, showcasing the game's signature over-the-top brutality. The input for this Animality is "Back, Forward, Down, 4." Ghostface will be available to Khaos Reigns expansion owners on November 19, with a wider release on November 26.
In anticipation of Ghostface's debut in Mortal Kombat 1, new footage reveals that the character's mask and hood can be removed to show the face of Billy Loomis, the main antagonist from the 1996 Scream film. This DLC character is a triad, including Loomis and two other fighters, Kobra and Kira, from previous Mortal Kombat games. The footage raises questions about whether animations for Kobra and Kira will also be included. Ghostface will be available for early access on November 19 and fully launch on November 26.
Mortal Kombat 1 is introducing Ghostface from the Scream films as a new DLC character, with a unique twist: two of the Ghostface killers are actually existing Mortal Kombat characters from Kano's Black Dragon Clan. The identities of these characters remain a mystery, encouraging players to engage in a "whodunnit" style investigation, similar to the Scream movies. Ghostface will be available to all players on November 26, with early access for Premium or Kollector’s Edition owners starting November 19.
Paramount Pictures' marketing campaign for Scream VI utilized non-traditional tactics such as custom calls from Ghostface and live cam cameos to reach audiences in an unexpected way. The campaign also included partnerships with pop-up restaurants and recreated set pieces for fans to walk through. The film has made over $120 million at the worldwide box office so far, including a franchise record $44.5 million opening weekend in the US. Paramount's recent marketing track record, including Top Gun: Maverick and Smile, shows the team's ability to effectively interact with the zeitgeist and engage audiences.
