THE FEVER

Get ready to leave the trap queens behind and face the enemy. Fetty Wap has been announced as the next featured kombatant in “Mortal Kombat X,” according to NetherRealm Studios.
The video game studio has had its eye on making Fetty Wap a featured kombatant ever since his breakthrough song, “Trap Queen,” released in early 2015.
“I mean, look at him,” stated Remi Boys, a spokesperson for NetherRealm. “He just looks like he belongs to the world of Mortal Kombat, so we put him in.”
Featuring a wide array of attacks and holding an appearance worthy of a Netherrealm fighter, Fetty just might be the strongest fighters on the MKX roster to date, even more powerful than Jason Voorhees.
“We did extensive alpha testing with Fetty, pitting him against Scorpion, Raiden and even Goro. I can say, without a doubt, that he is one of the strongest kombatants that I have ever seen,” continued Boys.
Added to his arsenal is a combat style consisting of agility based moves, a laser eye and two fatality moves.
“The first of these fatalities we like to call ‘17 to the face.’ With it, Fetty Wap will deliver 17 deadly punches and kicks until the enemy’s head gets knocked clean off,” Boys stated.
The other fatality, “New World Order,” calls on Fetty’s laser eye to summon members of the Illuminati to do his dirty work for him. This is done by relentlessly ripping apart the enemy while chanting, “New World Order.”
“‘New World Order has to be my favorite,” Boys began. “Especially since we’ll be adding celebrities to his Illuminati horde including, but not limited to, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Madonna and Lady Gaga.”
Fetty Wap has yet to comment on NetherRealm’s decision to add him to the fatal roster of fighters. However, he probably wouldn’t mind playing as himself duking it out with Kitana on RGF Island while drinking a Rémy Martin 1738.
