Rumor: Mortal Kombat 9 will be rated M and contain violent fatalities

Midway Games may not be doing so well financially these days but the Mortal Kombat series isn’t going down without a very bloody fight. For the record, Mortal Kombat 9 is currently being developed and the series creator Ed Boon is being quite vocal with the details on his Twitterpage.

What we know is that Mortal Kombat 9 is returning to the form we all remember it as – very, very violent. Boon says MK9 will not have any superheroes and will answer fans’ pleas to have another Mature rated MK game. Currently, the developers are motion capturing fatalities, and Boon is wondering if they are taking it a little too far. However, Boon knows they won’t cross over into an AO (Adults Only) rating.

IGN learned the Twitter account does indeed belong to Ed Boon. We’ll be eyeballing his account just in case he decides to spill any more gory details on this game.
