Warner bros. как-то вскользь анонсировала mortal kombat 12. игра выйдет в этом году

August 2, 2022 — No MK12/Injustice News from EVO

IGN had previously tweeted: “The developers behind Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Tekken and Guilty Gear are all expected to make announcements during Evo 2022.”

But it turns out that’s not actually the case, at least based on a few quote tweets from NetherRealm’s Ed Boon, who poured cold water on any MK12 announcements, suggesting instead that it was time “for Street Fighter and other great fighting games to be in the sun”.

We doubt this means we’re getting any Injustice news, but it is interesting that all the focus currently seems to be on a new Mortal Kombat without so much of a sniff of news suggesting that Injustice is on the cards.

July 4, 2022 — EVO Coming soon

The Evolution Championship Series (EVO) for 2022 is now a month away, starting on August 5 and lasting until August 7.

Could we finally get some big news from NetherRealm at the event. We sure hope so and with any luck it ends any speculation over what game the studio could be working on next!

June 21, 2022 — Johnny Cage actor teasing next MK game?

The actor for Johnny Cage might be hinting at something going on with Mortal Kombat in a new twitter video released earlier today.

Andrew Bowen, who portrayed Cage in Mortal Kombat X and Mortal Kombat 11, has tweeted a video of himself at the Warner Bros. Studio lot.

What’s even more intriguing is that the background music appears to be from 1988 martial arts movie Bloodsport, which directly inspired the original pitch for Mortal Kombat.

If that wasn’t a big enough clue that something fishy is going on, Bowen swiftly deleted the tweet once it caught fire. We wonder why… and also what does this mean for Injustice?

June 9, 2022 — Summer Games Fest Livestream

Summer Game Fest starts later today with a confirmed start time of 11am PT / 2pm ET / 7pm BST.

You can watch via YouTube or Twitch by following the links listed. Or just watch the live stream embed down below.

June 2, 2022 — Summer Game Fest Is Next Week

Don’t forget that the third Summer Game Fest takes place on June 9, and promises to showcase “what’s next in gaming with huge new game announcements, world premieres, special guests, and much more”.

It’s also worth noting that the show’s creator Geoff Keighley has let fans know that the show will be “primarily focused” on already announced games. But this isn’t to say it won’t have some new game announcements. Plus with Warner Bros confirmed to be part of Summer Game Fest, it sure would be a good time to announce what NetherRealm is working on. Could it be a new Injustice? One can only hope.

Either way, tune it, it’ll be fun!

Injustice 3 Characters List

At this point, it’s impossible to say for certain what characters might be included in Injustice 3. For one thing, it will depend a lot on Warner Bros and licensing for the DC characters.

The first Injustice game had 30 characters, with Injustice 2 increasing to 38. Normally NetherRealm tends to stick to that mid-30s sweet spot, so we might expect to see a similar number of characters.

However, it means we might see some new characters or potentially returning characters. Ares, Batgirl, Doomsday, and Shazam were all cut from Injustice 2, despite the roster size increasing. These characters could well return, but it also means we’ll probably see some characters from Injustice 2 cut. For a full overview of what characters featured in both games, check the table below.

For now, there’s no real suggestion as to what sort of ‘guest’ characters we could see, but for quite some time fans have been calling for the likes of The Watchmen – like Dr. Manhattan, The Comedian, Rorschach, Silk Spectre, and Nite Owl – as well as more standalone characters like Neo from the Matrix series. We’ll be sure to keep this list updated as we get more info about what characters could feature in the Injustice 3 roster.

Warner Bros. uncertainty allegedly leading to safe bet from NRS

Recommended Videos

It’s being reported that NetherRealm Studios — fresh off of calling time on mega-selling fighter Mortal Kombat 11 — are focusing on the development of a new Mortal Kombat entry, rather than returning to the DC Comics-fueled Injustice universe.

As reported by Giant Bomb reporter/trusted insider Jeff Grubb, NetherRealm Studios might be sticking with the franchise that brought it to the dance, rather than revisit the Batman vs. Superman shenanigans of Injustice for a third outing. Grubb suggests that the recent wheeler-dealing of publisher Warner Bros. — facilitated by the AT&T merger and the supposed shopping of Warner Bros. Games — has led Boon and co. to move straight into the production of its more financially lucrative, whale-attracting franchise.

“(The rumor) lines up with the reality, and it lines up with what I’ve heard, where Mortal Kombat 12 would make the most sense because that’s a game they know will make money. It will sell well,” said Grubb in a new video. “Mortal Kombat 11 was great. it’s doing well, but if you come out with Mortal Kombat 12, it will also sell and do well At the same time, you don’t have to use any of these Batman or Superman characters that might be tied up in licensing if you try to get rid of NetherRealm or sell it to whoever.”

It’s snug thinking, with further weight added by the recent release of animated and (very successful) live-action movies set within the gory, claret-spilling Mortal Kombat universe. Mortal Kombat, as a franchise, has never been the best fighting game on the block in any generation. But it has always been popular as a brand, and right now is more financially successful than it has ever been, if not from a creative standpoint. If you were a studio wanting to keep the stock high and keep your most personal brand closest to your chest, a new Mortal Kombat (or a new remaster or spin-off) might be the way to go. And with several DC Comics games already en route — such as WB Montreal’s Gotham Knights and Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League — Injustice 3 would risk becoming lost in the mix.

Time will tell. Frankly, as a stained-in-the-wool Mortal Kombat fan, I’d much rather NetherRealm had focused longer on Mortal Kombat 11. That title had more to give and needed further polish, and while we were offered a metric ton of paid kontent, and told that the plan was to support MK 11 for years and years, in reality, it has had a shorter support period than almost all of its contemporaries, including Tekken 7, Street Fighter V, and Dragon Ball FighterZ. Still, the battle between MK as a respected fighting game entity and MK as a Warner Bros. pop culture cash cow has been warring since Mortal Kombat (2011). There is unlikely to be a ceasefire anytime soon.

Injustice 3 Story Predictions

SPOILER WARNING FOR ANYONE WHO HASN’T PLAYED INJUSTICE 2 AFTERMATH

What will happen in Injustice 3? To get a sense of what to expect we suggest having a watch of the below video from History Behind The Warrior, which essentially looks at the two endings from Injustice 2 Story Mode.

More specifically it’s trying to work out which is the ‘true’ canon ending which might lead into Injustice 3, and what the various permutations could mean for the game moving forward.

Naturally, this is just a prediction and for the time being it’s impossible to say what the narrative leads at NeatherRealm could be planning.

Injustice 3 Release Date

At the time of writing, there is no official release date for Injustice 3, since Netherealm has yet to formally announce the game. As we’ve touched on, there’s still a lot of debate as to what the studio is actually working on internally.

Regardless, we know that NeatherRealm usually follows a similar pattern for their release schedules. As the table below shows, we typically see the studio release a new game every two years and had it not been for the COVID 19 Pandemic and the ongoing issues surrounding Warner Brothers’ merger with Discovery, it’s possible they might have released something by now. As it stands we’re still waiting and we imagine that whatever the studio is working on, be it Injustice or something else, will likely be revealed and released in 2023.

Warner Bros Discovery Merger Issues

21 August 2021 – Many fans would rightly have assumed that the next project after Mortal Kombat 11 would be a new entry in the Injustice series. As we’ve touched on before, that’s partly to do with NetherRealm’s pattern of flipping between each series. However, according to VentureBeat reporter Jeff Grubb that could be about to change.

Speaking on the Giant Bomb podcast, Grubb suggested that the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Warner Brothers Games, and the Merger with Discovery, led to NetherRealm changing projects or potentially abandoning any hope of working on an Injustice 3 project.

“It lines up with the reality and it lines up with what I’ve heard, where Mortal Kombat 12 would make the most sense because that’s a game they know will make money, it will sell well… Mortal Kombat 11 was great, it’s doing well, but if you come out with Mortal Kombat 12 it will also sell and do well,” Grubb said.

“At the same time, you don’t have to use any of these Batman or Superman characters that might be tied up in licensing if you try to get rid of NetherRealm or sell it to whoever.”
