New Mortal Kombat 11 Spawn DLC Trailer Features Two Never-Before-Heard Trivium Songs

The brand-new Mortal Kombat 11 trailer for Spawn contains a special surprise for fans of the American rock/metal band Trivium. It’s now been confirmed that the trailer featured the world premiere snippets of two new Trivium songs, “IX” and “Scattering The Ashes.”

Trivium singer and guitarist Matt Heafy said on Twitter, “What a freaking honor to have our band in this trailer! I grew up with Spawn and Mortal Kombat, so this is un-freakin-real!”

Trivium is signed to Roadrunner Records, which is owned by Warner Bros., which owns Mortal Kombat developer Netherrealm. Talk about synergy.

“IX” and “Scattering The Ashes” are two of the tracks from Trivium’s upcoming album, What The Dead Men Say, which is scheduled to debut in 2020. The first single, “Catastrophist,” was released earlier this month. The full versions of “IX” and “Scattering The Ashes” have not been released yet.

As for Spawn, the Keith David-voiced character comes to Mortal Kombat 11 starting on March 17 with Early Access and then for everyone on March 24. For lots more on Spawn, check out GameSpot’s full coverage of what we know so far.
