NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros Games confirm that Nightwolf is available now for PS4, but they are still working on getting the character to appear for Xbox One users.
Original Story
Nightwolf is the second Mortal Kombat 11 DLC fighter to be released and will be available to download on August 13 for those who purchase the Kombat Pack.
The Kombat Pack includes six fighters, with the already released Shang Tsung being the first. Following Nightwolf, Mortal Kombat 11 players will likely get Sindel next and then Spawn from Image Comics. There are two other characters that are unannounced, but past teases seemingly confirm that Ash from the Evil Dead series will be included.
Nightwolf in Mortal Kombat 11 not only brings some of his signature attacks like his shoulder charge, and bow and arrow move but for this latest game the Mortal Kombat veteran brings the spirit of the bear, wolf and hawk to give him different buffs.

WHEN CAN YOU DOWNLOAD NIGHTWOLF IN MORTAL KOMBAT 11?
UPDATE: NetherRealm posted an update on when Nightwolf will be available and it seems to have been delayed
Nightwolf will be available to download on Tuesday, August 13 for those who purchased the Kombat Pack. The fighter will be available to purchase separately a week later, on August 20.
NetherRealm Studios has not provided exact timing for the release of the DLC fighters. New fighters added to Injustice 2 regularly appeared in the late morning or early afternoon of the release date.
However, when Shang Tsung was released, Xbox One owners could change their country to New Zealand to download the DLC character early. It seems that Nightwolf’s release is being delayed a couple of hours so we suggest checking this Reddit thread to find out when Nightwolf will appear in the Microsoft store.
Microsoft consoles are not region-locked, so if Xbox One users want to change their region to New Zealand to download Nightwolf early, they can do so.
Warner Bros. Game Support announced when players can download Nightwolf, which you can read below.
