Warner Bros. Games Announces Mortal Kombat: Onslaught

Warner Bros. Games and NetherRealm Studios Announce Mortal Kombat: Onslaught

Mortal Kombat: Onslaught will feature the first mobile-exclusive cinematic story experience for the franchise, where players must build a team of fighters from a vast roster of characters – and unleash them in massive real-time group battles to stop a dark and dangerous threat from wreaking havoc across the realms.

"We are pushing the boundaries of Mortal Kombat to allow players to experience the franchise in new ways, while still staying true to its core visceral nature," said Ed Boon, Chief Creative Officer, NetherRealm Studios. "With Mortal Kombat: Onslaught, we reimagined Mortal Kombat into a strategic team-based collection RPG with fast-paced, group melee combat that both new and existing fans can enjoy."

A Mortal Kombat gacha game? Well, I mean, I guess they already did the Injustice gacha, though that one was basically a (bad) mobile fighting game. I guess a turn-based MK gacha RPG could be entertaining for like a week.

So is collection now the term to avoid using gacha? Because that's what I'm taking collection to mean.

Should have been a console SRPG.

Eh, it's not just twitter.
NRS as a bit of a rabbid fanbase and they've been waiting longer than ever for a new fighting game from them.
But i'm also part of that fanbase, and i'm not crying on Twitter about them announcing a mobile game tho' ? Anyway, i expect a smash hit for them on mobile. Hope we'll see MK12 this year.

‪Yeah, the next big NRS game is likely MK12 (as rumored). NRS & WB Games usually like to have their console & mobile MK/Injustice games work in tandem.‬

I love the world of MK. Can't say I'm interested in this for the long run, but I'll give it a few hours just to experience it a bit.

I really wish they'd expand the series beyond traditional fighting games. An action rpg, or action adventure game would've been great.

I've always wondered why many franchises can have multiple games, or spinoffs in development by different teams, but MK can never seem to get that same treatment.

I'm pretty sure that the MK mobile game and the Injustice mobile game were successful for them. They will probably give this a great budget and they'll make money out of it.
The Injustice mobile game got an arcade version for some god forsaken reason. Why on earth they would make the arcade version of a game that is in a genre with a strong arcade lineage the version of the game made for phones is beyond me.
