The Kombat Tether - Full description of the Gamescom Build - Unique Ed Boon Interview

[OG Mannimal]

"We are in the process of writing up our Mortal Kombat X impressions and Ed Boon Interview. A ton of new info, little details, clarifications and confirmations throughout. We cannot publish our #Gamescom coverage on our website until Tuesday as we don't return to the UK until Monday. Hang in there, it's going to be one hell of a flawless victory. We also are giving away some custom MKX posters signed by Ed Boon and the MK team along with some official merchandise we acquired at the show! Stay tuned!" --- Via the Kombat Tethers FB page

The interview is expected early next week when the guys from the Tether return home from Germany, as Mannimal said, they had a full interview with Ed Boon in which a bunch of new info is revealed, along with awesome signed goodies and GamesCom exclusive Merch to give away

So I found two new interviews from Gamescom:
This one doesn't have any real new information, except at the end where Ed says the next character reveal is going to be "a bad guy"

This one needs a full translation, if anyone one here can watch it and give us any bullet points on new info they might be talking about it would be awesome!

Aside from the graphical fidelity, is there anything else that will be significantly different in the last generation versions of the game?

Ideally no. We are focusing mainly on the Xbox One and the Playstation 4 versions. The other versions will be outsourced so our job is to make as strong a game as we can and then the other versions is something that another studio is doing and is a separate effort. So we're just going to make the best game we can on next-gen.

For fucks sake :/. Please bring the PC version in-house so it stays on the main update cycle, espcially when modern PCs have equal or more power than the current consoles.

Also, can we really call them "next gen" when they're out? Surely the PS4 and XBone are current gen now...

It's a term all publishers use.

It's technically Current Gen at this point, but when you think Current Gen, you think 360/ps3. Best to go by what is more commonly recognised.
