MORTAL KOMBAT VS. DC DETAILS
by Lucas Siegel


  • Scorpion vs. Batman. Sub-Zero vs. Superman. A new twisted fanfic? Nosiree, it’s the new Mortal Kombat! Announced yesterday at Midway Gamer’s Day in Las Vegas, NV, videogame mainstay Midway Games has teamed up with DC Comics to bring the next installment of Mortal Kombat some new, old characters. The game has already been in development for several months, and rumored as far back as September, 2007.

    Fans across gaming and comics messageboards have been skeptical, to say the least. One concern is power levels, as most MK characters are slightly augmented humans (at most), while the DC characters are, well, super-powered. The other main concern is what rating the company would be seeking for their endeavor. Traditionally, Mortal Kombat games have been rated M for Mature in the U.S., which means they are recommended for players 17 and older. No word yet on whether the game will feature the fatalities and brutal moves the series is known for. Either way, Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe is, in fact, on the way.

    There will be two different stories, one told from the side of MK, one from the side of DC, where each universe is invaded by the opposite universe’s characters. Names familiar to comic fans, Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray are writing the story to help lend the proper voices to the DC Characters. These stories will be told in a new version of the traditional single player campaign.

    The story will be used to balance the fights more evenly, and will do so using established mythology. For instance, the story will feature magic factors, to weaken Superman against a character like Sub-Zero.

    The combination of “popularity and style of fighting” was used to choose which characters were in the game, according to series head Ed Boon. Batman, Superman, Sub-Zero, and Scorpion are the first confirmed characters, with more to come in the coming months leading up to the game’s release. Right now the release is noted as this fall, and the game will be coming out for the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3.

    One of the new features for the game includes a new fighting mechanic, including zoom-ins and fighting while falling from one level of the stage to the next. More information about the game will be released at http://www.worldscollide.com

This game will be horrible. It reeks of fanboy fanfic and will match it in quality. They're breaking the rules for both universes and will end up making both crappy and subpar.

I'm hard-pressed to come up with very many DC characters I'd actually enjoy seeing fighting in the MK universe, so I'll most likely pass on this one, too.

Its a simple logic to this game.
The MK characters are mystical in origin, so it stands to reason they would maybe affect the DC guys powers to the point things are evened up.
And as for fatalities.....well the MK characters can have em, the DC characters dont, that way it doesnt go against either franchises characterisations!

That said, stick in a character like Lobo, and you have the perfect crossover character!

Theres also easily enough lower powered DC heroes that could be used (pretty much anyone from the Bat universe, Blue Beetle, Black Lightning, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Aquaman, Manhunter, The Question, Resurection Man etc etc etc.).

I didnt see anyone complaining when Lui Kang or Johnny Cage was fighting a monster like Goro, or a god like Raiden!

All we need now is Snarf to tell us how truly, TRULY bad this will be!

I wonder if Shane Douglas will be in it?

Actually, it could be cool. In addition to the aforementioned Lobo, Black Adam, Deathstroke and the Creeper would make good characters as well.

So, is Scorpion going to be able to uppercut Superman into a vat of acid, and Superman's skeleton comes bobbing out 3 seconds later? This sounds like a game for troubled teens.
still skeptical but this looks cool....

That was awesome! I am so stoked for these games. The part with Sub-Zero running Superman through the walls was great as well as when Flash was doing that to Sonya.

the thing that bugs me about these superhero fighting games is that the same punch to Superman and Batman does the same damage.
It's like the Justice League game on the SNES where Batman could easily defeat Darkseid and Superman by jumping around and throwing batarangs (which did the same damage as Omega Beams).

My problem is that the superheroes now look silly in the context of the MK Universe. A guy in a blue ninja outfit looks a lot less stupid when he's fighting a dude in a cape, with his briefs on top of his pants.
