Homelander in Amazon’s The Boys is maybe the most compelling villain of the last ten years on the small screen and is the subject of countless match-up hypotheticals by fans, so why not make some of those match-ups a reality in Mortal Kombat? What’s the next best thing to playing as evil Superman in Injustice 3? Playing as a more evil evil Superman, of course. Again, license holders make this guest character request a bit of a stretch, but it’s been way too long since The Punisher featured in a video game - it’s time for that to change. It feels like for as long as Mortal Kombat has existed, The Punisher has been touted as the perfect fit for a guest apperance, but what are the chances of a Marvel character turning up in an extremely violent, very non-PG game published by WB, who currently hold the keys to the DCEU? Honestly, not that high, but Marvel and DC characters both co-exist in noted intellectual property utopia Fortnite, and The Punisher is set to return to our small screen very soon, so the license could do with an uptick.Īs a big, angry lad, Frank Castle makes almost too much sense for Mortal Kombat and could play very similarly to The Terminator in Mortal Kombat 11 in terms of firepower. With Evil Dead Rise currently hot off the presses and an MK character possibly turning up in Evil Dead: The Game as part of the trade-off, now’s still as good a time as any to get groovy. After all, Ash was heavily believed to be coming to MK11, and when that never came to pass and Ash just got his own game instead, there was plenty of disappointment. While it may seem like Bruce Campbell is somewhat against Ash turning up in other games, this could just be a smokescreen to make people rule it out and create a bigger surprise. At this rate, Mortal Kombat 12 will have crossover characters in the double digits - so why not put together a bit of a wishlist for who should come to the MK12 roster?Īhead of the Mortal Kombat 12 roster achieving complete saturation, there are few better characters from Resident Evil to come to a fighting game than Albert Wesker, though all the teleporting and absolute refusal to die could get a bit old.Įveryone’s favourite Matrix cosplayer has already featured in Dead by Daylight of late, and with the RE remakes now set to make him into a pivotal character once again, it’s time to reintroduce his character to a new audience before it does a slow mo dive over a shark in the inevitable RE5 and RE6 remakes. MKX featured the likes of Jason Voorhees, Leatherface and Alien’s Xenomorph, while MK11 really pushed the crossover boat out and boasted The Joker, Spawn, Rambo, RoboCop, The Terminator, and Robocop. It’s also a very exciting time to be a fan of horror and generally hyperviolent franchises because of how Mortal Kombat loves to collaborate with other bloody-minded IPs with guest character spots.Įver since Freddy Krueger and Kratos guest starred on the MK9 roster, Mortal Kombat fans look forward to seeing which famous characters appear from other franchises, often long-standing since the 80s with a penchant for buckets of gore. Based on the fact that NetherRealm have to raise their game to the highest levels with new Tekken and Street Fighter games to show them who’s boss, it’s a very exciting time to be a fighting game fan. Even though it feels like the last game came out just yesterday and that it also seems to be releasing at the expense of Injustice 3, an announcement for Mortal Kombat 12 is seemingly pencilled in for May 2023.
