"Mortal Kombat: Onslaught is a testament to why Mortal Kombat has been a top gaming franchise for over 30 years, as the NetherRealm team continues to innovate and bring new gameplay to fans."
NetherRealm Studios chief creative officer Ed Boon added, "We are pushing the boundaries of Mortal Kombat to allow players to experience the franchise in new ways, while still staying true to its core visceral nature. With Mortal Kombat: Onslaught, we reimagined Mortal Kombat into a strategic team-based collection RPG with fast-paced, group melee combat that both new and existing fans can enjoy."

Mortal Kombat: Onslaught is a new collection role-playing game launching globally in 2023 for mobile devices.
Mortal Kombat: Onslaught will feature the first mobile-exclusive cinematic story experience for the franchise, where players must build a team of fighters from a vast roster of characters—and unleash them in massive real-time group battles to stop a dark and dangerous threat from wreaking havoc across the realms.
This title will be the newest mobile entry for the Mortal Kombat franchise since the release of Mortal Kombat Mobile, which has amassed more than 150 million installs and is one of the top five most downloaded fighting games on iOS and Android. Mortal Kombat is also celebrating a major milestone this month with its 30th anniversary—a testimony to the enduring popularity and critical acclaim of this legendary franchise.

Im out...
Whatever... What about MK12? Oh right, I don't care since it's gonna be "Mortal Kombat VS Boon's favorite movie villains & super heroes" once again.
Can we have another Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks, please?
I love the contrast I'm seeing where we're gonna get a PS2-style platformer game that I'm totally here for, meanwhile NetherRealm are like "what do the MK fans really want, that we haven't done in yrs?"
Ed: Oh I know, let's make a mobile game, everyone loves those!
Like, swing and miss, Ed, swing and miss.
They could have gone back to remastering/remaking that actual RPG they once had, MK: Shaolin Monks. but instead they go for a super easy money diming cash grab app instead. Just feels like a waste if you ask me.
I mean sure. But kinda doubt this is the main project right now. Any rumours of MK12 or a new game series?
