There Could Be A Horror Movie Fighting Game Coming In The Future, According To Mortal Kombat Developer
Mortal Kombat has already made it possible to fight as famed horror icons, Jason Voorhees from Friday The 13th and the Predator, but what if NetherRealm Studios took that small DLC idea and turned it into an entire game? Well, NetherRealm director Ed Boon had something to say about that.
In an interview with Game Informer, Boon said,
So while obviously nothing was confirmed, it's still something that NetherRealm has to think about. Usually when fans push for something to happen in the video game world, it happens. I mean, we got remastered Crash Bandicoot games coming finally; anything is possible.
If I had to envision a game where famous horror villains fought against each other in a Mortal-Kombat style, I could of course see Jason Voorhees facing against villains like Michael Myers from Halloween and Freddy Krueger from Nightmare On Elm Street. If anyone can execute a horror movie fighting game, I have faith the the developer of the new Mortal Kombat can do it correctly and with all of the elements that it needs.
When Game Informer asked Boon how the process would work for putting together a horror movie fighting game, he said,
If anyone has been proven to be powerful when shaping the game, it's the community. The gaming community's feedback can single-handedly make or break a game, Silent Hill Downpour being a perfect example. Even though the game itself was gorgeous in its graphics and just okay in its storytelling, diehard Silent Hill fans hated it so much, the studio went under after failing to execute the game correctly. So if you've got ideas for a horror movie fighting game, start making your voice heart to NetherRealm Studios!
Mortal Kombat is probably one of the few fighting game franchises that could successfully welcome a horror movie villain line-up, so if this magical horror movie fighting game eventually comes to be, let's hope it works a lot like Mortal Kombat X.
