"Mortal Kombat 1 Unveils Secret Fighter with Rock Legend Nod"

This week, *Mortal Kombat 1* received a substantial update that thrilled fans by adding the iconic Conan the Barbarian to the roster of fighters. Yet, there was another addition that came as a complete surprise and can only be described as unexpected—a ninja clad in pink, going by the name… Floyd! While it might sound like a playful jest, Floyd is indeed a legitimate secret fighter within the game.

Floyd is an amusing nod to the legendary rock band, Pink Floyd. His introduction cleverly references the iconic cover of *The Dark Side of the Moon*, which famously depicts the dispersion of light into a spectrum of colors. Interestingly, Floyd's fighting style is a mash-up of moves borrowed from other ninjas. He can freeze opponents like Sub-Zero or launch spears like Scorpion. Adding to his quirky charm, Floyd boasts a unique health total of 1337 points, a playful nod to the internet slang for "leet" or elite.

For long-time fans of the franchise, Floyd's inclusion might evoke a sense of déjà vu, reminiscent of the original secret fighter, Reptile, from the very first *Mortal Kombat* game. Reptile was notoriously difficult to defeat and similarly utilized a combination of moves from other ninjas.

Currently, the *Mortal Kombat 1* community is actively trying to decipher the method to trigger an encounter with the elusive pink ninja, Floyd. His appearances seem somewhat random at the moment, though Floyd himself drops hints about the challenges players need to complete. However, a definitive method to unlock him has yet to be fully confirmed.
