NetherRealm Studios MKast! Series 2: Episode 3 - Skarlet!

NetherRealm Studios have released their next installment of the MKast! This third episode focuses on the upcoming character, the blood-born creation of Shao Kahn's bidding, Skarlet!

"Bloodthirsty Skarlet is a skill-based character and probably the fastest on the roster so far..."

The video is laced with gameplay footage of Skarlet in action and is commentated by the games Lead Designer, Paulo Garcia and Assosiate Producer, Erin Piepergerdes. Discussed throught this episode is Skarlets history, being born from an urban legend that back in Mortal Kombat II a glitch would cause Kitana to turn red, this then fuelled Skarlet's actual existence in the latest Mortal Kombat. Her blood-based arsenal of special moves, incorporating her swords, daggers and even drawing her own blood to use against her opponents inflicting damage upon herself but with a big payoff. Paulo even goes as far to state that she is the most skill based and fastest character on the roster so far!

Skarlet is released tomorrow on Xbox Live and Playstation Network for 400 Microsoft Points and $4.99 respectively. For full details on her please click here! She is also one fourth of the Season Pass which also launches tomorrow!

That wasn't really an MKast compared to the other ones. But I still liked the video.

Is it wrong for me to say the 1st thing I noticed when entering the site was Skarlet's rear O_o?

*I blame the natural male sex drive reaction time :P
Which if I remember...is it like .30 seconds? I know I read somewhere in my psychology books*

Skarlet certainly looks like she's able to wreck you when in capable hands. I'm looking forward to getting a chance to place as her tomorrow.

She cuts herself to throw that blood bubble? I never noticed.

She looks fun and like she plays unique. Only if she looked special.

Exciting, can't wait to play her!

How often do we think they are releasing these characters? monthly? fortnightly?

I'd say monthly, seeing as how there is only 2 and a half months left of summer and I'm pretty sure they said they wanted to release these over the course of the summer.

I really like the ninja dash move which just adds to her being more ninja-like than any other MK ninja so far. It's actually something like that I would like to see Jade have, as speed is her boon. I'm rather excited about her. ^^

Very nice video, but as mentioned above, it wasn't really an MKast, but rather a developers' blog about Skarlet.

Bloodthirsty skarlett. Nitara was bloodthirsty.

Her gameplay looks awesome she's extremely fast I feel like she could do some damage.

Nitara probably could've got good gameplay too. Nitara till the end!!!

She must have a metric fuck-ton of STD's. Can't wait to play her, though.

So yeah even though someone wins a fight against her she will have the last laugh.

Hmm, not sure how unique her gameplay is. She has:

*slide attack - like numerous male ninjas already have

*double projectile with the ability to dash cancel the 2nd one - like Kitana already has

*blood projectile - like Nitara already has

Not unique, imo. However, I do give her credit for that little mini-dash, looks cool.

Her blood projectile is nothing like Nitara's. The only similarity is the aesthetic. You can't cancel Kitana's second projectile unless you use EX. Her slide could have new properties. And her dash option special is unique.

I sometimes have to wonder why we're all so caught up into Skarlet.

I can not wait to get my hands on her!
That artwork is awesome. And that render! Probably one of the best to be done for this game, next to Shao Kahns'
