Gamespot has updated with an article concerning new details about Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, as presented by KOEI, who have picked up publishing rights to MK:DA in Japan. Among the highlights:

• Special moves are now in a more finished form; Sub-Zero's ice freeze was demonstrated, and as described in an E3 report by TRMK, the victim doesn't immediately freeze, but instead slows down until he is completely frozen.
• A new power-up move was shown that was not seen in previous versions, that would cause your character to briefly grow in size before shrinking back down. No other use for this move was seen, though it's probable that this function is as yet unfinished.
• The "Test Your Might" minigame was demonstrated, and appeared to be fundamentally unchanged from the original MK1 version.

Our thanks to quan_chili of the forum for the heads-up on this update!

Update: I received a tip about a new character mentioned in this article named Hsu Hao (pronounced "Shu How" ) about a month ago, but due to lack of any confirmation from Midway we couldn't run it. We believe that Hsu Hao is actually the mysterious character named Khan, as seen in this picture. -Scott Howell

It's finally here! The development team for Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance has taken time out from the development of the game to answer the questions posed by you, the fans. We are sorry we couldn't submit everyone's questions; so many of you picked good questions, that we had difficulty picking the best questions to ask. In the end, we feel we picked the twenty we thought would answer most of the fans' questions about the game.

We would like to thank the Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance development team and Midway for taking the time to answer your questions about the game, and also you, the fans, for providing the questions for the interview.

We have always been known to deliver great content and news to our readers as well as giving Mortal Kombat fans a central community to participate in. Now, due to popular demand, we are proud to announce the return of our Mortal Kombat Fan Art section! It goes without saying that many individuals on our forum have artistic talents. Many people have been inspired to create their own works of art, especially in the past year with the release of official artwork for Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. Since the implementation of our forum we have seen people post their talent for all viewers to see. With the addition of our Mortal Kombat Fan Art section, now doing such a task is easier than ever before. We now offer a database of all authors who have submitted their artwork, and make it easy to comment on and rate artwork. We welcome any feedback and comments concerning this section; like the rest of the site, user input is valuable in improvements and expansion. Please send any comments about the section to our newest staff member AcjBizar. We also have a few site enhancements spread out among the site including a new Forum FAQ.

On a related note, we would also like to welcome our new graphics assistant Justin Saadein. He will be working together with us for various projects we have planned for our future. Just one example of his works is the new header image you see above. We hope you enjoy the new content and thank all of you for your support!

Apparently a newer version of MK: Deadly Alliance was at another video game conference called ESTC 2002.  There is an eight-second clip of Kano fighting Quan Chi.  Although originally it was an 80 MB movie with footage of many games (hosted by Telenet Games), you can download just the MK portion by visiting Total Mortal Kombat.

Thanks to TMK for the word on this update.

We haven't been following the "Great GameFAQs Character Battle" that closely, but here's the scoop.  Characters from different video games are pitted against each other tournament-style, and the users vote for the winner.  The only Mortal Kombat character in this battle is Scorpion, and he has so far defeated Kazuya Mishima, Max Payne, and Pac-Man.  Now will be his toughest battle yet: Link.

It's not looking good for the undead ninja, and Scorpion needs all the help he can get, so please head over to GameFAQs right away and vote for Scorpion.
