They&#8217;ve hinted at sharing those details soon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the full patch notes have yet to be released, a few character changes have caused a stir in the MK1 community. Specifically, Cyrax&#8217;s Kameo move, the horizontal helicopter spin, now uses a whole Kameo bar. This development has gotten much attention, probably due to events like the East Coast Throwdown 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Baraka is now moving more slowly, and there is a larger gap in his 2,1 string. Raiden aficionados will notice a decrease in his damage output as well. There are adjustments to his low hat and spin Kameo attacks for Kung Lao fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"572\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-1024x572.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-256343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/10\/mk1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Halloween-Themed Additions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In line with the Halloween spirit, the Premium Store offers a spine-chilling addition to elevate your gaming experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Streamlined Access to Your Favorite Moves<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can now pin your favorite moves on the HUD, eliminating the need to navigate menus.
