The Marvel Kombat universe, famed for its intense combat and diverse character roster, is rumored for an exciting addition. According to rumors, the iconic character from the world of Conan the Barbarian may join the ranks of the next entry in the legendary gaming franchise.

Conan the Barbarian became widely popular in the 1980s because of the performance of Arnold Schwarzenegger in the eponymous film.

Now, this legendary warrior is rumored to be crossing the boundaries of the universe to enter the deadliest tournament in gaming.

Conan the Barbarian isn't the only character mentioned by Jez Corden as a potential guest character for the next Mortal Kombat entry. Corden previously mentioned that he's heard that Peacemaker and Homelander are coming to the game as well. But, unlike the other two characters, Corden isn't quite sure which version of Conan is coming to the game. It's worth noting that a book version of Conan does exist although we'd be surprised if they didn't go with Schwarzenegger's movie version given his prominence in pop culture.

The Mortal Kombat franchise is one of the most controversial games in history but it's also a cornerstone in the gaming industry. It's known for its brutal combat, complex lore, and memorable characters, as it has constantly pushed the known boundaries of the fighting genre.
