Ideas for new ARENAS

Probally for a Chaosrealm arena the players could be standing on a floor and the background is in a vertigo, with other pieces of floor "flying" around, people walking upside down, things like that.

I think arenas should explore more the story that surrounds it. For example, fighting in Goro's Lair and suffering an uppercut could lead to Shang Tsung's Palace. More to the corner he could be at Palace Gates, and, if the player wasn't knocked upwards, they could be kicked into a wall of Goro's Lair that leads into The Pit (I'm using MK:SM areas, the game is mostly non canon, but many of its environment was used as canon in MK9).

I also hope that in MKX they use the background with more people. We see that in Outworld's Market some people are watching and in the back some are "working". It would be nice if other characters would be fighting on the back, but those couldn't be rivals already beaten or who the player had performed a fatality. If Armageddon once happens the way it did before, this would be a nice background.
 
Who's in for a reimagined version of Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe's Special Forces base? You know, the background in Jax Briggs and Sonya Blade's render. That was my favorite stage in that game, along with the graveyard.

I am hoping to see a stage with water at the fighters' feet. For example, this stage from MKvsDCU


I'm sure they can make the water turn red from blood as the battle progresses, which I think would be great! Hopefully, it can be a "New Edenia" 25 years into the future. Here are some pictures of what the background could look like.

I never liked the stage transition thing TBH.I wouldn't mind it,but won't care if its not in.
About the arenas full of people,i disagree on that too.Thats what i don't like about the marketplace.MK is better with creepy and mystical kind of arenas,not the ones that remind of Street Fighter.I don't mind some of the stages being full of people,but not most of them.
 
I want a re-imagined MK4 Prison stage, with the stage fatality included.


I want to see body parts flying at the screen in glorious 1080p @ 60fps. :)
 
I know it sounds kinda grim but what about like a burning village? Like Im picturing old rustic japanese village set ablaze, burning lumber and crops everywhere. Maybe as the battle goes along you would see buildings begin to collapse, people running in the background etc.

Like these

On the edenia idea it would be cool if there were two variants to it an ethereal paradise and a dark withered corrupted version

would also like to see the nexus arena return along with an arena in chaosrealm with crazy gravity defying rivers flowing around the arena along with orderrealm being staged within a arena where prisoners are tried and or executed while being overseen by the judge(s)

I also like the creepy and mysterious arenas, and I count those who got few people (like fighters on PIT II and Jade/Smoke on Living Forest), but this is the rule, I was talking about an exception, and Outworld Market is already an exception of the three shown arenas.

Street fighter people usually watch the fight and the main rule is that, you see that a few exceptions are backgrounds with no one. Personally, I dislike Street Fighter, MK story and development is far superior (my opinion). The only thing I admire on them is their investiment on a single title and online easy gameplay.

We agree, we just don't mind some stages with people, but not most of them, when I said that I didn't mean to say that I want most with crowds :beer::shakehands:
 
I'd like the Lumber Mill from MKA to return.

I'd also like a men's bathroom stage to return. Corpses sitting on the toilet would be awesome!!! :)
 
I like the idea of a kind of "dark heaven" on a thunder cloud, rain/lighting in the background offering bits of light.

With intractables that reflect lightning.

No idea how it would fit in a story or what they would fight on but it has potential I think
 
As much as most dislike MK:Mythologies (I loved it), you cannot help but admit that it had some really in' backgrounds. I'd really like to see some arenas from :

Prison of Souls

This area had some really cool "industrial" designs. Hell, reminds me a bit of Oddworld. But in a good way. It'd be really cool if they explored this area more. It's dark and gritty just like what they're going for.

Some of the giant robots and guards would make for pretty awesome background stuff

Pyramid of Shinnok (exterior) :

Considering that this MK will probably have a great deal to do with Shinnok, it'd be cool to see his fortress in the way it was displayed in MK:Mythologies. It looks awesome.

Maybe feature some of these guard dudes/dinosaur things in the back for interactables

Water God's Temple?

I remember someone saying that they would like an arena that's got water on the floor similar to the one from MKvDC. I agree. I think it'd look especially awesome with current gen graphics.

A darkened version of this full of water on the ground- maybe throw in some hanging hooks for good measure, some throwable barrel interactables. I think it'd make for a damn cool arena.

As much as people don't like Mythologies it had some damn cool music too.
If that's not dark and menacing I don't know what is. Would be perfect fight music.

Did anyone else notice the intro music for the newest Raiden demo video? Hopefully that's the route they're going in for the music.

With the way the music starts off for the prison music but for this game(mkms), it would be cool in mkx because the creepy part of the song could start on round 2 since this MK's music changes with the rounds.
 
please nrs no "pretty" or "beautiful" stages. I want some dark crazy disturbing stages.
like a level with spikes on the ground, roof, and walls with people that are still alive impaled through them.
or one stage where its all dark in an area with some crazy monster in the dark area and a stage fatality where you punch then into the area and then the monster rips them apart and throws their limbs and insides up in the air and at the screen.
how about that burning village idea, only this one youre surrounded by fire and people come running through the fire and you can throw them at the other player.
 
Some really cool ideas in here! I would like 2 or 3 returning stages from MKDA and MKD they had some of the best and most atmospheric stages in the series I think. I like the burning shogun type village idea as well
