Initially planned to premiere at The Game Awards later tonight, Warner Bros Studios accidentally jumped the gun on releasing the official trailer for the new Kombat Pack for Mortal Kombat X. Since the publication of this article, the video has since been made private, but that hasn’t stopped NeoGAF members from posting the trailer on separate accounts and spreading screenshots. The new characters announced are Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre series, the Xenomorph from the Alien franchise, Tri-borg (a hybrid character of cyborg characters Cyrax, Sektor and Smoke) and the drunken fist master himself Bo Rai Cho.

A Black Friday study conducted by InfoScout, a firm that tracks purchases made by a network of 300,000 users over three mobile apps, determined that Sony’s PS4 outperformed Microsoft’s Xbox One among Millennials (ages 18-35) and had a slight increase in the middle-aged audience (ages 36-55). These changes were weighted against purchases made on average days versus those made on Black Friday, which carries enormous amounts of deals, discounts and bundles. Last year, the Xbox One was declared the victor by InfoScout in terms of total percentage of sales on Black Friday. The statistics declared by InfoScout had the PS4 taking seven percent of the market directly from Xbox, boosting its Black Friday sales to 48 percent among Millennials.
