In some interesting video game news, Moral Kombat XI is in development and the game is set to be revealed, allegedly, on December 6th at The Game Awards.  A rumored Quality Assurance tester for the game poster on 4chan alleged details about the game below;

 

It will be revealed at The Game Awards 2018.

It will have 4 years of dev cycle (1 year concept 3 year full development) longest to date.

Concepting actually even started while making MK X. They were always thought as back to back games in terms of story

It has proper adventure mode , new version of Shaolin Monks type of gameplay. You can play and customize your character in this mode, lots of items for customize weapons, etc. Also boxes (daily, buyable etc..)

Adventure mode is 2 player co-op , online or single. Drop in drop out.

Story mode and adventure are different, but both are included. Story mode is normal NRS game style.

Story evolves about 3 main character

Punishing raiden ; hes now punishing anyone trying to even dare to attack earthrealm.

Emperor Liu Kang and empress Kitana are preparing an army and trying to find something of stone left from ages of those deity gods in MK universe (cant remember names elder god or something).

Shang Tsung and Reiko made a deal with Kotal Kahn to protect and rule outworld security, Reiko has it’s own agenda though and gets killed in the middle of it.

Uses UE4 instead of UE3 like all other games of NRS.

Animation cancel is actually not a cancel, but something of pseudo of it. Much as you can expect from a western company. Looks infinitely better than MKX in terms of animations. Something similar to UMK.

Fujin is a playable character.

Johnny cage, Goro, Sonya, Kano, Baraka, Mileena, Ferratorr are 100% not playable

 

In other video game news, Tom Phillips, an editor for Eurogamer, alleges that Nintendo will be releasing new Zelda games every year on the Switch.

As I understand it, Nintendo is keen to have a Zelda game launch on Switch every year.

It’ll be interesting to see what transpires from this rumor, as Breath of the Wild was a massive undertaking.  Could it mean ports, or is it strictly new releases?  We’ll have to wait and see.

 

Former Victorious actor Avan Jogia has been cast in the upcoming Zombieland 2 film.  He’ll be playing Berkley, a “bad boy musician” type.  He joins Zoey Deutch as new cast-mates for the returning four stars of the original film.
