Mortal
Kombat 12 Teaser in 30th Anniversary Video
|
|
|
|
 On
May 1st, Mortal Kombat
series co-creator and NRS chief creative officer Ed Boon tweeted a 2-minute Mortal Kombat
30th Anniversary video featuring members of the NetherRealm Studios
development team thanking fans for their support over the past 3 decades.
At the end of the video, Ed Boon himself dropped the first ever teaser for
the next Mortal Kombat game... rumored to be Mortal
Kombat 12 (actually Mortal
Kombat 1). The "teaser" is a highly-detailed animation
showing an hourglass and grains of sand falling downward potentially a
reference to the continuation of MK11's
storyline. Watch the full video and teaser via Ed Boon's tweet, below.

Since
the 2010s, Ed Boon has been known to tweet cryptic messages and teasers
about upcoming releases. Since then, NetherRealm Studios has released Injustice:
Gods Among Us, Mortal
Kombat X, Injustice
2, and Mortal
Kombat 11. Back in March 2023, Ed Boon tweeted the
word "tick" a total of twelve times... heavily hinting at Mortal
Kombat 12's looming arrival. The hourglass and sand motif appears to
go along with this theme.

In
February 2023, Warner Bros. Discovery's executive vice president of
global investor strategy revealed during an earnings call that Mortal
Kombat 12 is set to release this year, setting up 2023 to be a
massive year for fighting games with Street
Fighter 6 releasing June 2nd and TEKKEN
8 on the horizon (speculated to launch in 2024). Keep it here on Fighters
Generation for continued coverage.
