What's new

NetherRealm's Adam Urbano, "we’re also working on a bunch of really, really exciting new projects"

That's right, folks. Besides the endless amount of DLC characters the community keeps pushing for in Injustice: Gods Among Us... NetherRealm Studios is in heavy "balancing act" it would seem. While they would presumably have maybe three more (?) DLC characters to release until the roster is finished, the entire team at NetherRealm Studios isn't just working on DLC.

While this may not come to a surprise to most as Warner Bros' Lance Sloane confirmed some very interesting details just last month concerning the development of the next Mortal Kombat game, it will excite the masses without a doubt. Over on United Kingdom website, DLCentral.Co.Uk they got some interesting detail out of NetherRealm's Adam Urbano concerning what sounds like "a lot of really exciting new projects".

Now, keep in mind the marketing plan for the new game has been talked about for some time to coincide with the new Mortal Kombat feature film being directed by Mortal Kombat Legacy's Kevin Tancharoen. Check out what Adam told DLCentral below:

DLCentral: With the entire DC Comics Universe to choose from, you could conceivably keep producing new Injustice DLC for a long time – but at what point do you stop? As a studio, is there a self-imposed cut-off to focus on other projects, or do you keep making DLC for as long as gamers are buying it?

Adam Urbano: The honest answer to this question is that we’re still figuring it out ourselves. We obviously have a great deal of passion for Injustice: Gods Among Us, and we’d like to keep making content for it forever, but we’re also working on a bunch of really, really exciting new projects, and so we have to constantly evaluate where specific people on the team are needed. If you would have asked me this question a couple of months ago, I’d have said our cut-off was absolutely, positively after four characters – so at this point I have no idea what my answer will be in another couple of months.
What does everyone think these new projects are?

Pterodactyl

Plus on block.
Bayonetta
MadWorld
Vanquish
Metal Gear Rising
Anarchy Reigns
Bayonetta 2
Wonderful 101
Viewtiful Joe(technically)
God Hand(technically)

The point is, they have fucking style when it comes to violence, and they get better on all fronts with each new game.

They could go the really awesome route and make a game around Havik and Hotaru's rivalry.


A wide scale battle of Chaos vs Order tearing apart the realms, bringing in fighters to stop the war before things either descend into complete unending madness, or into entirely life controlling management by an unstoppable totalitarian government. Though this war has been waging for centuries, it has finally escalated to it's breaking point through the meddling of Shinnok and his minions.

Fighters on both sides, and neutral combatants as well.

MAKE THIS SHIT HAPPEN DAWG.


Who am I kidding?

We all know they're gonna take the lame way out.

"DERP DERP SHINNOK AND NOOB SAIBOT ARE INVADING EARTH REALM! IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S UP TO JOHNNY AND SONYA, AND A BUNCH OF JOBBERS FROM MK4 AND ONWARD, TO DEFEAT OR HELP THIS NEW THREAT! OH NO! LIU KANG IS BACK FROM THE DEAD, OOOOWWWWOOO WHAT A TWIST! BET YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING, ESPECIALLY NOT AFTER HE WAS LIKE THE ONLY MAIN CHARACTER THAT WAS KILLED AND DIDN'T HAVE HIS BODY VISIBLY MUTILATED BY SOME MAGICAL MILF, AND WAS JUST RIDDLED WITH ELECTRIC BURNS! HERE LET'S KILL OFF ALL OF THESE NEW CHARACTERS FOR DRAMATIC FLAIR!"

HD remake of Mortal Kombat: Deception would be awesome.

I can't describe in words how happy that would make me.

They could wait as long as they wanted to make MK10 if this happened.
I wouldn't give a fuck.

10 Things Box Wants Out Of An HD Deception Remake.
By: Box.

10. Add Havik, Shujinko, Ashrah and Hotaru to the Puzzle Kombat roster.
9. Make the Krypt AA-ZZ sized so that maybe I'll have some use for my THIRTY FUCKING THOUSAND PLATINUM COINS -_-.
8. Dark Prison, Falling Cliffs, Sky Temple, The Foundry & Onaga's Temple as Chess Kombat maps.
7. Include Survival Mode. Maybe another different new ladder type.
6. New and improved missions for Konquest Mode, including an active quest menu so you can actually keep track of them all and OCD complete everything without leaving a stone unturned.
5. TELL ME WHO THE GODDAMN HELL KOCHAL WAS SUPPOSED TO BE.
4. Give everyone who was in MKDA whichever skin from it they don't already have.
3. Take whatever extra stuff you plan on adding to the game and turn them into extra locked coffins for the previously mentioned expanded Krypt, with keys that will make for more "when and where is this showing up? and "who do I have to fight?" Konquest quests.
2. Make the easter egg reward for completing the entire game a trailer or cutscene teasing at MK10 and giving definitive direction to where its story is going to lead.
1. Include the COMPLETE roster version with Jax, Kitana, Blaze, Frost, Goro and Shao Kahn.

Only problem with that is how popular are they and would people actually buy this when maybe most people probably don't even know who these two are this isn't too bad of an idea at all but i would imagine this as a spin-off right before mk10 came out or maybe even after

Marry me.

I'VE BEEN SAYING (things relatively similar to) THIS ON THIS FORUM FOR 2 YEARS

I'M NOT ALONE ANYMORE <3

Granted, I'd rather they built MK10 in its entirety around it, but still, an MK platformer or MK10 with a new poster boy would sell, especially if it's great quality. It worked for Baraka and Mileena in the Deception campaign.

The war of the Netherrealm VS Earth and Outworld gets rudely interrupted by Havik and Chaosrealm, who is in turn pursued by Hotaru and Seido, the consequences of which lead to unanticipated character resurrections and returns (specifically Sindel and Nightwolf as they were both small but undeniable keys to the original 3D storyline), which leads to the holy revival of Edenia...this shit writes itself.

What do you mean how popular?

Damn near all of the pre-MK4 characters(the ones everyone knows, the most famous, even Liu Kang and Sub-Zero) are fucking rotting in the Netherrealm right now, and all of the post-MK4 character are almost equally known except for a few lame-o's like Hso Hao and Kobra.

MK 10 won't really be that exciting to me, unless they announce the return of any of the following :

- Hotaru
- Havik
- Onaga
- Blaze
- Bo Rai Cho
- Li Mei
- Nitara
- Motaro (No not the fucking minotaur, the centaur)
- Chameleon

I can already hear the Sheeva players groaning with sympathy at the thought of how big his hitbox would be.

If I could have any 8 of the new-gen roster...
Ashrah, Bo Rai Cho, Hsu Hao, Havik, Hotaru, Shujinko, Sareena and Dairou.
