Ed Boon Talks Mortal Kombat

IGN recently caught up with Mortal Kombat producer Ed Boon and asked the veteran video game producer about the status of the latest game in the Mortal Kombat series. Boon revealed that there would be a playable demo available for those who attend this week’s PAX event at the Washington State Conference Centre.

Well, right now we’re getting ready for the PAX show. This is going to be the first time that the public gets to play, and we’re excited about that. We have a number of these events, shows and things that we’re planning for. So we do that while at the same time kind of advancing the game forward in general, but our most immediate goal is getting a version ready for PAX.

Although Boon couldn’t reveal the full cast listing for the new Mortal Kombat he was kind enough to drop a big hint on who we could expect to see return for what is being positioned as a reboot of the famous fighting franchise…

Well, I wish I had the OK to give you that information [The fighter roster]. I can tell you this though, and I’ve said this a number of times, this is in some ways a retelling of the Mortal Kombat I-II-III storyline. I think for the most part, if you have a favorite character from Mortal Kombat I, II and III, there’s a very good chance that they’re going to be in the game.

  1. This new Mortal Kombat game is going to be very interesting I hope this will pretty cool and WB has done a good job on the game so Cyrax and Kitana and other characters are in the game and I hope Liu Kang returns as well.
    This would be a good MK game.
    Thank You.
