A new trailer for the upcoming Mortal Kombat was released yesterday and while it doesn’t give to much away by the tone of the video it is going to be awesome. I remember when the original came out for SNES and Sega and being late to school because I was playing it with friends. I hope they go back and give this that same feeling. According to recent interview by GameInformer with MK’s Ed Boon he says:
back in ’92, when the first game came out, it was only two or so paragraphs. We didn’t have a medium to tell a detailed story. So we’re really telling the first story, which was never really told in detail. Now we have cinematics and actors and motion capture and all that stuff. Now we can tell it with a lot more sophistication. That’s, to me, the big win of the story.
This to me is awesome news because I’ve always been curious to the story behind a lot of characters. Yes there were the movies (hate it or not there was a 2nd one) and there were a few tv shows and a comic. But I’d really like to see it in the video game. I am stoked about this game and can’t wait to play it. Check out the newest video below… What do you think?

Wow. I didn't expect to see a new Mortal Kombat game for a while really… Being that Midway just went under and all, but this just made me super excited!
