Rumors of MK10 coming out 2012 possibly leaked from MLG!!!!

From what I hear, they have been working on MK10 for longer than ppl think. MK9 is just the foundation to the game they want to build. Its their 20th anniversary next year, so I would expect something BIG to come from them next year. I pray to god that whatever they do decide to do whether its UMK9 or MK10, that they also have HD versions of the rest of the MK games. MK Gold, MKDA,MKD, and MKA on xbox live and PSN would be awesome.
 
Personally I was hoping to see another Shaolin Monks-type game released before MK10. I'd like to see what they could do with a decent budget and development time frame this time around.
 
But I fear story mode will suffer from a lack of thought.

It's not like MK9 had a glorious Story Mode. It was very rushed and sloppy. But was decent enough for an MK game. As long as they can stay on par with that, they should be okay.

They can easily pull off a "game a year" system.

that would be the downfall of the series.


MK fans like each game to be something defferent, where you can look at a certain game and reconize which one it is. We dont want Mortal Kombat turning into Madden or Call of Duty.

That's how MK was during the MK:DA-MK: A days. I wouldn't be surprised if they did it again, seeing as how they have a great new engine to do it with. It wouldn't be a bad decision.
 
If it does end up being an UMK9, I'd be pissed. While it worked fine back in the day, especially if you had the snes (yay Rain and Noob), it would seem like they were just trying to milk money out of the fans.

But if it's mk10, I only hope that the story is well written, thought out, and so forth. Because that what I want most from MK now a days. So if they can manage to crank that out, I'd be happy :D
 
lol please not a umk9. mk isnt street fighter. we dont need mk9, umk9, super umk9, mega umk9 and so on. id rather they just kept working on mk10. capcom makes this mistake. they release sf4 and re5 then instead of going to work on sf5 and re6 they keep putting out more versions of sf4 and other re games like umbrella chronicoles and they make fails like vanquish. this isnt something nrs needs to do to mk. just work on mk10 longer. next year is too soon. give mk9 a little more time to shine.

I'd say MK9 had one of the best story modes I have ever played in a fighting game, it was lengthy, entertaining and encouraged you to try a lot of different characters.

While I do agree with you about how story mode was overall, I just didn't like that you ONLY played as Earth realm fights (OK and Scorpion xD). I also thought it was stupid fight the same villains multiple times; why didn't they kill Baraka the second time they fought him, or kill whoever the first time around? But other than those two things, I enjoyed it. Konquest mode was still my favorite; ya can't beat an open world xD
 
really happy to see this. mk9 is by far the best mk ever made so, in the case of mk10 I'd want:

the team on the same track. 2D fighting, don't ruin it again with 3D or weapons and shit like that. have all the fighters till MK3 (even if the new story mode keeps some of them dead, they're all great characters and should be in the game even if it's unlocking them as a bonus), obviously make at least 6-7 new characters that are good like Skarlet and not crap like Hsu Hao or something (wouldn't want guest ones either), "fix" some things that should have been in mk9, as in, access to all skins (even more new skins if that's possible), not sloppy work on DLC characters like no alternates or an entry line, cyber Smoke even as a bonus if Smoke is kept human and overall reinforce the game more (maybe two xray attacks, more moves etc).

in the case of UMK9 I'd want again the above reinforcements of the game, I guess the story wouldn't be expanded or maybe they'd just add some bonus chapters for the DLC characters that will be an introduction to their role in mk10.

overall, even if it's an early release of something new, as long as they are on the right track with mk I'd get any game after mk9.
 
This is an old thread... there's virtually no chance of it being out this year now, seeing as how there is NO actual news of it.
