The Next Mortal Kombat Will Be Revealed Tomorrow Morning

We have confirmed that the Mortal Kombat 12 official reveal will take place tomorrow, on May 18th.

A new tweet from the official Mortal Kombat reads “Tomorrow is a new dawn” and contains a teaser styled after the previous video, featuring a clock hand that skips past 12 and strikes 1, followed by text reading “It’s Is Time” with a start time of May 18, 6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET.

The clock landing at “1”, according to some fans, could indicate that the next game will be a remake of sorts. Although 2011’s MK 9 already did that, the wild ending of MK 11 (and its Aftermath expansion) certainly paves a runway for Netherrealm to essentially start fresh and do whatever it wants with the fiction going forward. This 12th entry could be a bit nuts, even by the MK standard. 

Mortal Kombat 12 will launch this year according to Warner Bros. CEO. Whether this new game is actually called MK 12 or something else entirely is unclear, but we’re looking forward to waking up bright and early tomorrow morning to see what’s next for our favorite spine-ripping kombatants.
