Mortal Kombat X Announced!

New Mortal Kombat announced! The trailer features typical MK blood, gore, fantasy violence, new play mechanics and Ed Boon’s well-established pro-Scorpion bias. Naturally, being early footage, it’s nowhere close to the fluidity of MK9, but the X-rays examples are brutal and the fighting, if it’s representative, could be a significant change from established beat-em-up standards of animation, perhaps hinting at on-the-fly animation adaptation, as well as level weapons? It could well be possible with the next gen consoles, and I can’t wait to see more!
