Mortal Kombat 12 Confirmed for 2023

It’s been a good few years for Mortal Kombat fans, with a surprisingly decent new movie, and consistently great games hitting the market too. Given I grew up long enough ago to see the release of the original Mortal Kombat, I am very happy to see the franchise in such great shape. Now, Warner Bros. Discovery has officially confirmed that the much-anticipated Mortal Kombat 12 is not only in the works, but that it’ll even be launching this year! Admittedly, there’s still a lot of 2023 remaining, but still, it’s pretty exciting stuff.

Amusingly, the Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon gave a good reaction to the MK12 announcement with a tweet about Injustice. Of course, that’s not been announced, but it would be cool if that news was to follow soon too.

Mortal Kombat 12 is expected to launch sometime in 2023, and since it lacks an actual release date, I’d suspect somewhere towards Q4 should things go smoothly. I guess with a new movie on the way too, it’s going to be a pretty hot year for us MK fans!
