NetherRealm Studios boss Ed Boon – the creator of both Mortal Kombat and Injustice – has teased the Chicago-based studio’s next game, and it sounds like it’s neither Mortal Kombat 12 or Injustice 3, like various rumors have suggested in the past. In 2011, NetherRealm Studios released Mortal Kombat (Mortal Kombat 9), which rebooted the series. Two years later in 2013, it released Injustice: Gods Among Us. Two years from here, in 2015, it released Mortal Kombat X. In 2017, Injustice 2 was released, and in 2019, Mortal Kombat 11. For roughly a decade, NRS was releasing games every other year, alternating between Mortal Kombat and Injustice. The expectation was that in 2021, Injustice 3 would release. This didn’t happen. It’s now 2022, and not only has the studio’s next game not been released, but it’s not even been revealed, which brings us to today, when Boon teased what the studio is working on.
