Several weeks after the official announcement the character was in the game, today Midway has revealed the Flash's high resolution render on the official site for Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe!

The image shows the legendary speedster making his way through the ruined Metropolis stage previous shown, donning his trademark outfit. The black/white cut out versions of this render are available as well, though in a much smaller resolution.

Should the render of Sonya be released later today, it will be edited into this story.

Thanks to forum member for the word on this!

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe was the prominent feature of the early morning July 5th edition of GameTrailers TV, airing on Spike TV. Amongst the interviewees were Ed Boon, Steve Beran and Jimmy Palmiotti. Below is a short recap of the show, noting the major details revealed during its airing:

• Shang Tsung and Catwoman officially announced.
• Several new special moves revealed for nearly every character.
• Endings will be "madness" with more than two characters fighting on the screen at once.
• Scorpion will have his Toasty fatality from MK1-MK2.
• Two new characters will be revealed at E3.
• Four new characters will be revealed at Comic-Con.

Due to the somewhat large number of special moves revealed during the show, I will not document them all in the news lead as to avoid clutter. However, it does seem that most all characters have a teleport and projectile of some type. Several classic and trademark moves were present as well. The story was briefly discussed, however as mentioned above, the endings are said to involve "everyone" all at the same time. The main antagonists were said to be from both sides and possibly conspiring together.

As always, when more is revealed on this game we will update the site accordingly. Until then, we look forward to E3, Comic-Con and beyond.

One month to the day after Midway first announced their new series of podcasts, they have finally released the first MKast recording! The podcast, recorded by senior producer Hans Lo and associate producer Hector Sanchez, discusses fan reaction to the game, answers questions concerning the game, and makes a few new revealations about the game. The podcast was presumably originally meant to be released after the GameTrailers show, as at least one bit of information was released that was mentioned as being revealed on that show. Among the tidbits discussed were...

• New characters are set to be announced every couple of weeks via different distribution channels.
• Close-combat will be almost like a "boxing match", where blows will be handled in a "rock/paper/scissors" manner.
• There are clues about the game not discovered yet, not only on the official website, but also on Ed Boon's website.
• The MK characters are "true to MK", but the game itself is not part of current canon including Mortal Kombat: Deception and Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. If anything, it could be considered an "alternate universe".
• The two characters set to make their first official appearances in the GameTrailers show are Catwoman and Shang Tsung.

While the podcast is available on the official game website, we are also making it available for download here via the following link.

• MKast 1 from MK vs DCU

Our thanks to forum/chat member for the heads-up about this podcast release!

SpikeTV, in conjunction with GameTrailers, have announced that they plan to debut two "never before seen" villains that will make playable appearances in the upcoming crossover Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe!

Further details are not known at this time, but once the program has concluded we will report on it here with character names and gameplay tidbits, should anything new be learned.
