The Mortal Kombat 11 duplicate Gear bug is an annoying one, for sure. Players are finding that they are receiving duplicate outfits, despite already owning them already. Why am I getting the same outfits twice? It’s a common question that players are asking. Thankfully, it appears that a Mortal Kombat 11 duplicate Gear bug fix is on the way. Read on for the full details on the issue and for a fix.
Mortal Kombat 11 Duplicate Gear Bug | Why am I getting the same outfits twice?
It appears that several of you are complaining about receiving duplicate outfits in Mortal Kombat 11 from the Shrine. Obviously, this is not great, as each outfit part or piece of gear costs you in-game currency. What’s more, it costs a good 75K of in-game cash each time to get a set that should contain only new gear pieces. Unfortunately, it seems as though the game is bugged, causing players to spend loads of currency and ultimately receiving multiple versions of the same piece of gear or outfit item.
Thankfully, there appears to be a fix on the way in the future. Read on to learn all about it.
Mortal Kombat 11 Duplicate Gear bug fix
As stated above, a fix is on the way for the annoying Mortal Kombat 11 duplicate gear bug. This is according to Tyler Lansdown (community manager for Netherrealm Studios) on Twitter, anyway. Responding to a fan question about whether or not getting duplicate gear is a bug or not, Lansdown confirmed that it is indeed a bug. He confirmed that a fix for the bug is on the way, and the issue will be resolved in the next Mortal Kombat 11 update.
Unfortunately, he didn’t go so far as to give an expected release date for the update. Hopefully it will be released sooner rather than later. For now, we’d recommend that you simply avoid purchasing gear from the Shrine until after the next update goes live.
Mortal Kombat 11 Rejects

Characters You Won't See in Mortal Kombat 11's Roster
Few fighting game franchises introduce as many new challenges as Mortal Kombat. This can be a blessing, but also a curse. You might get an evergreen warrior with your new addition, or you might get a generic reject. Not everyone can make it into MK11, but these guys definitely won't make the cut. -
Bo' Rai Cho
Perhaps a controversial pick due to his many appearances, but Bo' Rai Cho never felt like a genuinely popular character. His unique moves and drunken demeanor make him stand out, but that goofiness also leads to a clash with the rest of the cast. Mortal Kombat works best when it's as straight-faced as possible, and that means you can't have vomit attacks. -
Drahmin
Introduced in Deadly Alliance. This Netherrealm Oni relies heavily on his spiked club for combat. In the days between the original trilogy and the modern games, Mortal Kombat introduced character specific weapons to stand out. So, while Drahmin had a place back then, he'd need a full redesign to fit in now. -
Khameleon
Khameleon has made two weird appearances in the franchise so far. She was a new character in the N64 version of Mortal Kombat Trilogy. Then, after being left out of the "everyone in the pool" Armageddon, she premiered in the Wii version due to fan outrage. It would be very strange to see her pop up again unless she somehow ends up in the Switch version of the game. And that is pretty unlikely. -
Kira
Premiering in Mortal Kombat Deception, Kira is a recruit for the "new Black Dragon." She's a generically heroic character despite her resemblance to an MK version of Harley Quinn. With the Kombat Kids filling the roles of new heroes, we probably won't be seeing much of Kira going forward. -
Kobra
Kobra is Kira's counterpart in Deception. He's a fiery recruit that's most notable for resembling Ken from Street Fighter. Kobra was briefly mentioned in Mortal Kombat X, but only as someone who Erron Black killed before the events of the game. That probably rules him out as a future entrant in the tournament. -
Mavado
Debuting in Deadly Alliance, Mavado uses Kabal's hook swords and grappling hooks in combat. With both Scorpion and Kabal present in Mortal Kombat 11, it'd be hard to fit such a fighting style in without repetition setting in. Plus, in a game filled with flashy ninjas and otherworldly creatures, Mavado is just a dude. -
Sareena
Despite looking like a human, Sareena is actually a demon, and that's the most notable thing about her. She fights with a pair of knives and her only appearance outside of Armageddon was a Game Boy Advance port of Deadly Alliance and a brief cameo in MKX's campaign. She has some story significance, but she'd basically be a new character if they were to bring her back. -
Taven
Taven is one of two new characters introduced in Armageddon's Konquest mode. Since he only appears in Armageddon, he's also one of only two characters who's never had a fatality. There may be some hardcore Konquest fans out there, but considering that his greatest deeds are written out of the current timeline, he's probably not popping up again. -
Tremor
We will admit, Tremor is pretty cool. He's a ninja who controls rocks, making his debut in PlayStation action game Special Forces. His first appearance in the fighting series was as a DLC character in Mortal Kombat X. He might be the most likely candidate for a revival out of these 10, but NetherRealm's ninja quota is probably already spent for 11.
