anyone seen Boon's new Twitter avatar, which is a "?". he could be just screwing around, or this could be the first indication of the next MK game on his Twitter avatar. notice how he's gone from the dog/MK9, to Batman, to MK Komplete, representing each three of the titles NRS have released/re-released. as the ? symbol is clearly connected to MK, maybe this is a hint. Carlos Pesina has also tweeted about doing mocap again recently

Pretty sure it isn't Mortal Kombat. I'd look for something at E3, but not Mortal Kombat.

Probably this if anything. I don't really think they need to make another MK right away. I'm not even done with this one yet.

Why are a lot of people jumping the gun into thinking that something about Mortal Kombat might be revealed at E3?

The game was released last year, they recently released the Vita version not too long ago. Why would they immediately reveal their next Mortal Kombat game at E3 when, I'm pretty confident on this one, that it's been stated a fair amount of time that they're not planning on really doing anything with Mortal Kombat at this time?

Not to mention, I remember reading something way back ago, that they're planning on working on other games that aren't Mortal Kombat-related. Carlos "tweeting" something about mocap could obviously be some random game that he's motion capturing, not just Mortal Kombat.

Thank goodness I'm not freakishly obsessed in trying to pester the designers and asking them questions that I'm positive that they've been asked at least fifty times.

IF they were to reveal a new MK in production, then it would be at the very early stages and would probably not be released until 2014. So I don't think it is too early to make hints for a new MK game.

The new Devil May Cry haven't even been released yet and Capcom has already hinted at a sequal.

I'd expect to see a MK spin off type game like shaolin monks or something. If they do a complete 180 from MK I'd be extremely surprised. I wouldn't be unhappy but I'd be shocked. If its a completely new type of game I'd love to see how they handle it.

I actually asked him this on twitter about 24 hours ago with no reply yet,

Didn't WB say they wanted a tie-in game to go with the release of Kevin Tanchareon's movie which has a release date of 2013?

Maybe something will be revealed at E3 this year if that's the case a snippet for a 2013 release

That's what I was thinking. If they were to show anything MK at E3 (and that is IF) it would be another action adventure game like Shaolin Monks.

I don't expect to see MK10 until 2014 at the earliest. So I wasn't expecting that to be revealed.

This. I think if NRS wants to go off and work on something besides MK then they need to hire more people to do so.

I could be completely off on this but it would be something like Ubisoft. They work on tons of other games, but they also work on more popular titles at the same time like Assassin's Creed.

Now, I realize that they aren't near as big as Ubisoft, however if they are going to branch out then they need to get other people to work on such projects while also working on their bread winner in MK.

Mortal Kombat is synonymous with Netherrealm studios and thus it would seem weird for them to not at least be planning something Mk.

I don't expect anything in 2012, NO. That would be too early. However, for them to release something at E3 would not be out of question to me. Look at it this way. They officially revealed MK9 at E3 2010. That gave us like 8-9 months to sit and wait for MK9. Now, they could reveal something about MK10 or even a spinoff like a shaolin monks type game because if they release it in the spring like MK9 then that will be 2 years since they have revealed or released anything.

Basically what it boils down to is that it shouldn't be out of question for them to reveal something at E3. I expect something along the lines of a Shaolin monks type game honestly. Hoping for that anyway. I want to see if they can do another genre how they do the fighting genre.

Maybe it's Ultimate Mortal Kombat 9: Komplete Edition..

Seriously enough though, I would PRAISE the God's if somehow, that avatar that Ed changed it to is UMK9. As much as I love MK9 I would not like to see it die, but I would like some new material, DLC, new characters, but I doubt that's going to happen. I can see MK10 coming out in around two years or so, but I don't see anything being announced at E3.

I am actually thinking that they have something to show at E3. I remember Rigo, stating that their deadlines at getting closer. Also, a member complained about his much work he has and Paulo reminded him hat E3 is near.

An adventure non-MK/MK game would be welcome here.
