Ed boon confirms no DLC for MKvsDCU
06 Jun 2009 by Ivanhobe

Once again from Twitter MK`s co-creator Ed Boon answers a few questions from the fans.

This time around he confirms that they had almost finished 2 aditional characters for MKvsDCU to be available for downlad, one from the DC side(he didin`t mention exactly who) and one form the MK side, the sorcerer Quan chi. It is such a shame that midway decided that it wasn`t worth it to go forward and publish the DLC....

EDIT:

Ed boon has recently confirmed that the DLC character from the DC side was actually Dr. Harleen Quinzel, AKA, Harley Quinn.

No news regarding Midway`s Future
11 May 2009 by Ivanhobe

After weeks of speculating, rumors, and filtered news, we still don`t know anything solid regarding Midway`s life or death situation, or could we geting closer to midway`s resurrection chapter?

Nowadays, Warner Bros. is the best positioned company to buy midway, and i mean the full midway package, not just the cool franchises like MK. This being the case, it would be an excellent solution, the MKteam could go forward without having to worry about the economical problems suffered by midway.

Still waiting for more updates in the situation.
