Pocket IGN have made an update to their story concerning Midway's sequel to Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, exclusive to Game Boy Advance. The new update announces the title of the new game. From the article:

We revealed earlier in the week that Midway's GBA team is working on a sequel to last year's portable rendition of Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. The game at the time of the article had a tentative title, but Midway has now revealed the official name of the sequel: Mortal Kombat: Deadly Revenge.

As stated in our earlier news update, Mortal Kombat: Deadly Revenge is being made by the same development team that ported MK:DA to the GBA, and features new elements. In the forum thread for the news update, forum member rayrokka (Ray DeGuzman of Midway) hinted at a secret character, saying, "I sure do love `ketchup' with my fries..." The game's current tentative release date is sometime this summer.

Our thanks to forum member prince_goro78 for the heads-up on this news update!
