Ed Boon hints Mortal Kombat dev\u2019s new game will release in 2023 WB GamesAccording to a tease from Mortal Kombat Co-Creator Ed Boon, NetherRealm\u2019s new game could hit store shelves in 2023. Questions abound about the development studio\u2019s plan for its next major project. Though rumors continue to point to Mortal Kombat 12, fans haven\u2019t given up hope on a third Injustice game. Barring the Aftermath expansion, NetherRealm hasn\u2019t released a game since MK11 in 2019. The precedent in recent years suggests another Injustice outing is on the way. However, the uncertain future of WB Games as it currently stands has called such a release into question. Whatever the studio is hard at work on, thus, remains a mystery. But recent hints from Ed Boon indicate the veil could lift sooner rather than later. Mortal Kombat studio\u2019s new game may launch next year In a recent Q&A on his personal Twitter page, NetherRealm CCO Ed Boon offered a hint about the team\u2019s unannounced project. The developer wrote the following in response to a fan asking about a potential 2023 due date: \u201cI shouldn\u2019t ans23r that.\u201d Another Twitter user pondered whether an announcement of some kind would hit the airwaves within the next \u201csix months.\u201d Boon simply said, \u201cLikely\u201d in reply. Other replies from Boon excited the community, too. Most notably, one fan asked if The Boys\u2019 Homelander would appear in a new Mortal Kombat game. The developer couldn\u2019t answer directly, of course, but noted the character \u201cwould fit in nicely.\u201d For now, there\u2019s still no confirmation on whether NetherRealm is working on Injustice 3 or MK12. It seems, however, that an answer will finally arrive in the next year or so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
