We're already hard at work on our next version of Mortal Kombat, and look forward to being able to reveal more details in the future."
Midway, the developers of Mortal Kombat and many other classic franchises may well be on the way out. Recently the company has got into serious debt, and a single investor bought a majority of 87% of the stock for just $100 000. Even worse the stock price fell 40% more after the sale. Mark Thomas, the new owner of company is expected to put 70 million dollars into the company to help rejuvenate it, but with the way things are going, you have to wonder whether it is enough.
"Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe (PS3, Xbox 360) goes gold and it's Midway Games seems to be making good on its schedule for release. It looks like MK opened another portal in yet another realm - this time, they wind up face to face with the heroes and villains of DC.
With the Fatalities and violence toned down, the bloodthirsty warmongers of MK won't get to spill as much hero blood as MKfans would like, but the righteous heroes of DC would be glad to know they won't have to break their oaths..."

Probably because of the recent rumor about a possible leaked list, Midway has unveiled all of the characters that shall participate in the fighting game titled Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.
Hit up the quote for just some of the heroes and villains.
Midway announced earlier this week at Leipzig that Wonder Woman and Raiden are confirmed for the upcoming Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. These are only two of the 4 confirmed characters so far (including Deathstroke and Kano)
"The latest render for upcoming license-'em-up Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe reveals Kitana ... and maybe reveals a little too much of Kitana, if women with huge bulbous protrusions from their crotch regions aren't your cup of tea. My love of women with ... shall we say ... "groinal gifts" is known to all and sundry, but even I'm a little intimidated by Kitana's considerable "bump mapping.""
GameSpot holds an interview with Ed Boon, co-creator of the Mortal Kombat series. One of the biggest things that catch attention is the fact that Ed is surprised at how much speculation has been spun by rumors and even the media. Explaining how the abscence of Fatalities was not officially announced. Instead MK characters and DC villains perform Fatalities, while DC heroes perform non-lethal Brutalities.
Also, there will be a story mode that apparently digs deeper into how the MK and DC Un...

1. There will be no fatalities. There will be finishing moves, but we won't be ripping Batman's spine out or making Superman's head explode in this game.
2. Boon said he is aiming for 20 ch...
