He-Man & The Masters of the Universe as the Next NRS Fighting Game (Not Confirmed)

Instead they can talk about Teela and Evil-Lyn's rack..

Well a lot of these DC characters in I2 have exaggerated phisiques but the fanbase doesn’t act nearly as uhmmm... excited as in MK

Im totally down for this! Skeletor main day one! @Swindle That art is so sick, who is the artist?

Regardless of its intent or lack of merit, your opinion is appreciated, brother.

My intent is simple, I want an MK game that's even more advanced than Injustice 2.
NRS is on the right track, not making an MK game now would deprive us of a game that would finally last.
I'd settle for an expansion for mkx if it meant fixing its issues at the very core, but I know better.

The artist for the first couple of pics that are done in a more realistic and dark style are from Paul Gerrard. All the others are just collected randomly without direct artist tags.

So many great characters. I like the darker artwork, but this just shows a ton of them and their potential.

All their classic looks. Nice

Very happy that so many of you see the potential of this. Of all the nostalgic toy franchises, MotU has the most potential in the fighting game space IMO.

 

[Dankster Morgan]

This has a lot of potential to be honest, they could do whatever they wanted, even in the story mode. I have NO knowledge or prior attachment to these characters, it would be awesome to go in fresh, rather than compulsively playing only Sub-Zero in any game he's in, I could really find my main .

 

[Dankster Morgan]

Fuck. I was hyped for Mortal Kombat, now ill be disappointed when the next game ends up being MK 11.

 

[Jynks]

Think of the awesome guest characters as well. Thunderfcats, Transformers, Lone Star, Silver Hawks, Thundarr, Herculoids, Space Ghost, Robotech, Astro Boy, Battle of the Planets..... man.. an 80s cartoons is really fertile ground!! I could list cartoons for pages!

I’m not gonna like it ‘cause it’s wrong on so many levels, but it’s fucking hilarious. Lmao.

 

[honeybooboo]

This would be sick, especially if a konquest mode was implemented. I'd play the shit out of that

 

[Second Saint]

Ok, I know basically nothing about He-Man. I was skeptical at best whether it could work, then I saw this. Who is this beautiful son of a bitch? I'm on board.

It’s a redesign of the character TrapJaw.

 

[Swindle]

This is canon.

 

[Swindle]

Teela.

 

[STORMS]

This would definitely have me excited.

If NRS did a MOTU fighting game... wow, I can only imagine.

 

[VSC_Supreme]

I always thought the old 80s MotU character designs were ugly in a 'easy to make cheap plastic toys' kind of way, but i'll admit you sold me on the idea.

I'd definitely invest in the game.

They totally were.. the thing is kids imaginations are awesome and those kids are all grown up now and they still "love" what they loved as kids.. so it is filtered through adult sensibilities. The art in this thread is about how we saw them as kids.. not how they really where!
