Mortal Kombat Isn’t Done Ripping Spines Out Yet

Boon said NetherRealm is pursuing another Mortal Kombat game, while leaks and voice-actor clues keep a new Injustice project in play.

  • NetherRealm boss Boon confirmed the studio is actively developing another Mortal Kombat game during an interview, keeping details regarding the project title and release timeline under wraps.
  • Development follows Mortal Kombat 1's 8 million copies sold in 2023, which underperformed compared to Mortal Kombat 11's over 15 million copies sold worldwide after three years.
  • Rumors regarding a follow-up to Injustice 2 persist despite no official studio confirmation, with evidence including LinkedIn profiles and voice actor comments suggesting a third entry is in development.
  • Boon suggested NetherRealm is pursuing projects beyond games, stating "So there's a lot of pots on the stove; not just with games though, with other forms of media and whatnot."
  • With Summer Game Fest approaching on June 5, fans may receive an announcement soon, as Boon expressed interest in potential crossovers involving Street Fighter, Marvel, or Joker.
