This was a parody of how Superheroes are so famous in the real world that they even have fan-made mods and various collaborations dedicated to them.
Homelander already added to Mortal Kombat 1 as official DLC. The latest mod is adding other supes in the game, along with one of the most controversial characters from The Boys Season 2, Stormfront. This incredible fan-made mod was made by NegativeZoneNerd and includes characters like Soldier Boy, Starlight, and A-train, showing the love and passion for the TV show.
All these characters are added by integrating them as a skin/outfit for an existing in-game character like Stormfront is a skin for Kameo Sonya. This not only shows the modding community’s incredible attention to detail but also creates a way to pay homage to the in-game character by not changing their moveset.
