To start off this week, Midway has released a render of the sixth Mortal Kombat character appearing in the upcoming crossover Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, Kitana! The Edenian princess stands in what must be an Edenian background as a tranquil waterfall flows behind and a royal palace can be seen in the distance.

Her costume design is clearly a redesign from her appearance in Mortal Kombat 2, with influences from later titles such as Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance.

Our thanks to forum members and for the information of this story!

MKast #4 has been released on the official MK vs DC Universe site today. This podcast appears to have been recorded prior to Comic-Con and reveals no previously unknown information.

Hector and Hans do hint at the possibility of downloadable content, more specifically an alternate costume for The Joker based on his appearance in The Dark Knight. As always however, DC would have to approve this alternate costume.

Another piece of news is further confirmation that John Tobias is indeed returning to create a comic book for MK vs DCU that will be a part of the Kollector's Edition of the game. It is also suggested that Tobias and Boon will be joining Hector and Hans in an upcoming MKast. To listen to the newest MKast click here.

We've now made this podcast downloadable from MKO. You'll find it below.

Though E3 has long been over, IGN has released a new interview conducted with Ed Boon during the time the event was taking place. Though nothing new is shown gameplay wise, as this is an older build of the game that we have now seen thanks to Comic-Con, Boon does touch on a few points that hadn't been clarified:

• Catwoman will possess a fatality maneuver
• Online support including lobbies and announcements
• 20 characters plus 1 'big boss', and maybe a secret here and there
• Multiple fatalities/brutalities
• Definite possibility of downloadable characters, environments and alternate costumes

San Diego Comic-Con may be over, but the news keeps on coming. During the Comic-Con event, Midway showed a video showing various gameplay footage from Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe. The video first shows Superman and Scorpion fighting on the streets of Metropolis, where the mid-battle Test Your Might sequence was shown. Then it cut to Batman taking on Sub-Zero in the Graveyard, where Klose Kombat was demonstrated. The next match was between the Flash and Sonya in Hell, where they took turns beating each other in Freefall Kombat. The video finally cuts to Shang Tsung and Catwoman fighting in Metropolis again, before the video shows quick cuts of the previous fighters. This morning, Midway released the video online, in both standard and 720p high definiton formats. We are providing the videos here, with the standard quality one available via YouTube embedded streaming video.

In addition, Midway released the render of the Clown Prince of Crime, the Joker, which had originally been posted on IGN's website. This version, of course, lacks the watermark the other one possessed.

Our thanks to the people at Midway for releasing these videos and render to the MK fans!

As promised earlier, the interview with Ed Boon at this year's San-Diego Comic-Con is now available for a free download to all MK Online registered members, and is also viewable on the free video hosting site, YouTube.
