With the introduction of Freddy Kruger into Mortal Kombat 9. Thekingslayer.com ask the question. Where was the horror genre tie-in all along? Seeing the Nightmare one in action made sense. Could Freddy be the first of many from the horror universe to get the MK 9 treatment?
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
A new book detailing the artwork of the franchise has been announced
Let me fix this title to something less click baity for you:
New Book: Mortal Kombat: Flawless Victory Announced.
The description clearly says what it is. It is not like people have to click to the site. They just have to read.
Sure they don't have to go to the site but to get to the description they already have to have clicked on it. Thus the term 'click bait'.
If its a book say its a book in the article title. Everyone’s gonna think this is a new game and get annoyed reading your description.
The Mods had no issues with the title.
The first line under the image says new book and you can see it in the preview windows without even having to click to read the description.
It also says a Visual History on the image.
On desktop and mobile the text a visual history is not visible in the thumbnail on the homepage.
I grew up on this stuff. Adding it to the art collection!
I do hope the next MK iteration goes back to the core of what made these characters appeal in the first place. A few of them lost their edge - I think I've had enough with some of the auntie designs 😂
Ahead of the release of the new Mortal Kombat skins in Fortnite, Epic Games has given players a first look at Scorpion, Kitana, and Raiden.
Nice handle!
On topic - I would personally love to see more horror icons in MK. Michael Myers, that dude from Basket Case, The Tall Man from Phantasm (with the silver orb), Candyman, Pinhead from Hellraiser...and on and on. Of course, this is a huge pipe dream.
I'm a big Freddy Krueger fan so this was great to hear. I think he fits in nicely but wish it was the classic Robert Englund Krueger instead. I just don't like the new Freddy Krueger look. I understand it but dont like it.Robert Englund was the man, I guess we could have a classic Freddy Krueger skin DLC? we have them for other characters in the game why not freddy? unless it's a license issue. anyway it should be fun I'm cool with it.
Yes please do Mortal Kombat Vs Horror Movie Icons that would be such a cool ass game.

Thats my Selection of villans if all these villains make it mortal kombat universe will have some serious problems.
if mk vs dc happend.......then mk vs horror FOR SURE WILL HAPPEN>>>>......
but i think mk vs killer instinct and mk vs street fighter n street fighter x mk should be next. as long as they keep this same gameplay mechanics that mk 2011 has. n more x rays and gore is welcome as well bb.
