Mortal Kombat X ANNOUNCED! But We Gotta Wait...



Remember how gamers rejoiced when Microsoft announced that Killer Instinct would be rebooted on the Xbox One? Well, fighters rejoice again because NetherRealm Studios is back and has released the official teaser for their newest game, Mortal Kombat X.

Following the success of the 2011 reboot, Mortal Kombat X looks to be the best entry in the franchise. By what we can see in the teaser, characters will be redesigned yet again for this new entry. We also see that X-Ray Attacks will be getting a more realistic look. Also seen was NetherRealms' newest mechanic, environment interaction. This was first introduced in their last game, Injustice: Gods Among Us, and seems to be coming into the newest entry of the most brutal fighting game franchise of all time. Finally, we get beautiful HD graphics that really bring the game to life.

But, as many will say, this teaser is probably not game footage but instead a cinematic to get fans hyped up. Well, here's what I say to that: when Microsoft released the trailer for Forza Mortasport 5, the graphics were so beautiful and well-crafted, it didn't look like a game. But we saw the "In-Game Footage" subtitle underneath and everyone bawled in its beauty. Though we don't get such a subtitle in the teaser, we cannot rue out the possibility of this being in-game footage.

As for release information, Mortal Kombat X is supposedly to come out in 2015 for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, and PS4. So get ready, fighters! Your game will be here soon...
