How reliable these leaks are, we don't know, but it's not against the realm of possibility.Įd Boon has just teased the next game from NetherRealm Studios and it looks like the studio is working on something big, with Boon claiming that he will “get in a lot of trouble” if he says too much. You decide.The latest leaks consist of so called insiders saying they expect to hear more on the game this year. They either all copied each other one by one, or are legit. If you are interesting in diving into this absurd rabbit hole, there is a pretty excellent Reddit post that timelines the leaks, dot points the details and provides a good chance to scratch your chin and wonder – what if it’s true?Ĭheck it out here: Did a devil’s advocate fact check on 4 very similar NRS/MK12 leaks: a few potentially conflicting details, but a lot of matches.

Generally I only briefly glimpse into the dirty pond of rumours, so as to avoid hyping myself for things that may well be utter codswallop – but the ripples in that pond have become more constant of late, and strangely consistent.

There has been a number of curious rumours going around since the konfirmed kontent klosure of MK11. It’s been 3 years since Mortal Kombat 11 had it’s big dramatic reveal at The Game Awards– and with scant days counting down to the next appearance of the one Geoff Keighley to host another entry, many eyes are turning to NetherRealm studios to perhaps do it all over again.
