Megan Thee Stallion, gamer and avid anime lover, has been on a roll with collaborations this year.

She dropped a merchandise line with Crunchyroll, snagged a deal with Revlon, and tag-teamed with artists such as Beyoncé and Cardi B. Not one to slow down, the rapper just teamed up with the crew at Mortal Kombat and her fans are loving it. Mileena wants to know if it hurts.

Megan Thee Stallion morphs into Mileena for ad

Surprise! Megan Thee Stallion shared a video of herself on Instagram cosplaying as Mileena from Mortal Kombat replete with the signature Tarkatan teeth and a pair of sai. It’s part of an ad campaign announcing the character’s return to the MK battlefield as Kitana’s worst enemy.

Mileena is one of Megan Thee Stallion’s favorite fighters from the game and last year, she dressed as her for Halloween. This time, the mask is off and Mortal Kombat cosigned on the “Savage” rapper’s message by writing “Real Hot Girl Sh*t” in the comment section.

Last seen in Mortal Kombat X where she was killed after staging a coup, Mileena is poised to finish her rivals when the new Kombat Pack 2 hits digital shelves on Nov. 17. She’ll be joined by Rambo (voiced by Sylvester Stallone), and Rain. Slay the date.

Fans want a Megan Thee Stallion Mileena skin

While some Mortal Kombat fans weren’t familiar with Megan Thee Stallion and seemed a little confused by the announcement, others clamored for a themed skin.

After years, the NetherRealm Studios team teased Mileena’s long-awaited arrival back in October, and she’s receiving a few skins with special abilities.

Now that fans know Meg Thee Stallion is part of the fun, some want to see a skin in Megan’s likeness and voice. They’re calling for Mileena Thee Stallion. On Reddit, one user wrote, “Meg can take a bullet. Perfect fit for MK games. Make her a Mileena premier skin.”

Others had a chain of comments going with “Can we get thee Megan skin?!,” “I second this, love her,” and “I third this. I would literally sell my soul to NRS for a Megan skin!”

Instagram users are celebrating the announcement and would love for the rapper to manifest in the game, but a few are willing to settle for a Mileena track from Megan.

Gamers can purchase two versions

The Rambo announcement blazed through Twitter in October, and the buildup for Mileena sent fans of the villainous mutant warrior into hype mode. Players have two options when it comes to acquiring Rambo, Mileena, and Rain.

They can either purchase the Kombat Pack 2 or MK11 Ultimate. The first includes the three new characters while the latter combines the entire MK11 stable with both Kombat Packs, Aftermath, and the Base Game. Other characters in the mix are Terminator, RoboCop, The Joker, Spawn, and Shang Tsung.

Gamers can pre-order either package from store’s website for their respective consoles now. In the meantime, Megan Thee Stallion is encouraging all her hotties to get down with Mileena’s drop on Nov. 17.
