Mortal Kombat 1is the latest entry in one of the most popular franchises that dates back to the early 90s. The fighting franchise is now available to enjoy on all major platforms and has inspired a series of hit movies, comics, and shows that have fleshed out its massive universe.
Crafted by John Tobias and Ed Boon, theMortal Kombatseries is arguably one of the longest-running fight game series we’ve ever seen. Over the decades, we’ve seen the creators bringing interesting and unique twists to the game. However, it seems like Boon wants to take theMortal Kombatfranchise into an entirely new genre.
Ed Boon Might Finally Make aMortal KombatBattle Royale Game
In the last couple of years, we’ve seen a rise in the number of battle royale titles. It all kicked off with PUBG’s incredible success in 2017, which made even FPS giants such as Call of Duty tip their toes into the genre to capitalize on its popularity.
Naturally, this has led to many in the community wondering whyMortal Kombatstill hasn’t introduced a Battle Royale mode/title. However, it looks like NetherRealm Studio’s CEO, Ed Boon, might giveMortal Kombatfans what they’re desperately seeking.
In an interview with IGN, Boon chatted about his love for fighting games and how it allowed him to developMortal Kombat 1. When asked if the burnout has finally got to him and if he’s planning to take the popular fighting franchise in a new direction, Boon said that he will definitely wants to try out something different.
I absolutely have desire to do something different. Surprisingly, I don’t feel burnout just because we’ve been trying new stuff with each game.
Boon and his team have been experimenting withMortal Kombatseries for a while now. Over the years, we’ve seen trying out new stuff such as Puzzle Kombat, Konquest, and even game modes such as Invasions inMortal Kombat 1. With the studio’s open-minded approach and Boon’s keenness to try something different, it’s only a matter of a time before we finally get a bladepoint style battle royale game combined with the iconic Mortal Kombat franchise.

The possibilities are endless when it comes to aMortal Kombatbattle royale game. NetherRealm Studio could integrate the series’ iconic brutal combat with the last-man-standing gameplay. Players could select classic fighters, such as Johnny Cage, and fight against others on an interactive map filled with power-ups, traps, and dangers inspired by the franchise’s deep lore. Heck, instead of guns and blades, we could see the use of pure martial arts to fight it out!

Ed Boon Kept 1 Secret from the Original Mortal Kombat Developers that Would be Impossible (and Irresponsible) to Do Today
Over the last couple of months, we’ve seen the developers giving us tons of Kameo fighters, but it seems like things are slowing down.
NetherRealm Studios has revealed disappointing news about the expected release of Ferra intoMortal Kombat 1‘s Kameo list, confirming that the developers need even more time, and it won’t be coming in June. The studio needs a bit more time to make sure that Ferra can help players in the best way possible.
It’s quite disappointing to see that we won’t be able to play with Ferra, but NetherRealm has softened the blow by revealing the release date for Takedaka, the game’s final DLC character. Ferra will now be releasing alongside Takeda on July 23, marking the end of the first planned expansions forMortal Kombat 1.
