this franchise makes him super rich and wealthy, I would be passionate for years too, Lol. Can you imagine that you get to discuss about video games all day and just know that said video game is gonna continuously give you money, royalties, checks for years to come because you're the co-creator of it? Ed Boon doesn't have to break a sweat anymore, he's set for life
Same. Reptile was an unplayable secret character, so if this character is unplayable than it should be Onaga. Ed did say it’s a “big one” so I hope so too
Onaga would be crazy ...I feel he would deserve full undivided attention... like he would have to be a major character of the story on some super villain stuff...would have been nice to have him the main villian instead of Shang Tsung
Ed Boon seems like such a great guy. So many big names in the industry honestly always have some flaw or annoying trait or thing about them. But Ed is just great all around. Really hope he doesnt get burned out and gets to work on more fun projects for years to come.
@@coomslayer6996hell yeah. I expect the next one to focus more on Shao’s rebellion and releasing Onaga. Probably include DLC characters like Jade and Kotal among others, maybe even finally bring special forces from earthrealm back too but maybe that’ll be a separate expansion after that
@@BuddyChyYeah hopefully we get to see more MK characters come back as dlc playable fighters in the upcoming kombat packs and story expansions. Drahmin, Moloch, Hotaru, Chameleon, Hsu Hao, Meat, Bo Rai Cho, Kintaro and more need to come back
Some silly questions about fav Animalities and about the blood. I'd be asking and fishing for more info regarding the design dev side of things and balancing of the game and any extra game modes coming, etc
Welcome to the MK Multiverse. I love all the different possibilities that could happen with MK moving forward. Especially with the introduction of Different time lines.
Great interview guys, thanks a lot. As a long time MK fan since MK2 in the 90's I can genuinely say that MK1 is one of the best MK games ever made, with the way they made the characters, the story, the gameplay and single player content, I had an absolute blast playing it. MK1 is truly PHENOMENAL!
@skettelho that is actually quiet compared to some. We had a room that was so loud we could not hear them five feet from us. I have another MK1 and lots of other interviews to post this week.
Theories on what the BIG Easter Egg will be: Since MK's story is jumping into the Multiverse (like any other franchise), anything is possible. But I hope we may see any of these (most likely making a small non-playable appearance in the Khaos Reigns Story): -A DC Character, or the full Justice League -Ryu from Street Fighter (hinting at a crossover game) -Ed Boon himself lol
Since Boon do tends in making reboot. I definitely down for Shaolin Monk 2 or even a remaster will be great. Personally, that game got me playing over and over even though the dubbed was the same for for different character.
After watching this, i know that theirs gonna be something else besides just story and finisher, i mean i can wait another month, no big deal, story ill probably get exited about even though the dirst story i was expecting something else a the end
The guest characters keep the games alive. Ed boon you can tell he is going to put his favorite guest character soon Michael Myers in mk1 in kombat pack 3 🎉
My ideal Kombat Pack 3 will be: 1. Jade 2. Kung Jin 3.Cassie Cage 4. Dante Sparda from Soulcalibur 5. Ryu Hoshin from Street Fighter 6. Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden.
I was so waiting for a Street Fighter guest character question despite of what they spoke about Street Fighter wanting a MK character such as Sub Zero ! -_-
@@deadjoy96 strongly agree w/ u there. Although, I can see characters such as Akuma or M. Bison fitting that roster. Street Fighter commented they wanted Sub Zero. If i am not mistaken, they are doing their 1st crossover character which is Terry
@@Qeiji bro I wouldn't pay and all just to make them kameo akuma I can see also bison. But the SF creator said before that they don t want them in this gore it's a dream but imo I see subzero in SF tho and they can add akuma / ken/ ryu to injustice
ITS ONIRO TO SET UP THE CYBER INITIATIVE !!!!! ONIRO IS MULTIPLE ANIMALITIES IN A SINGLE KARACTER!!!!!!! HE IS THE ANTHROPAMORPHIC WHITE NINJA !!!!!!! LETS HAVE ONIRO ON THE MAIN ROSTER ND MAKE HIS GAME DEBUT!
@@RoyArkon Gender swap is so lazy when they couldve had a female guest character,new female character or our beloved Sonya on the main roster etc.also their personalites are going to be so unlikeable we can already tell by the trailer, but why dont you have a problem with big fan favorites ketchup and mustard not really being themselves and being playable since MK9 and they give us not the true version of them, so idk why you dont have a problem with it.Gender swap and race swap in general is stupid af. Their copying the MCU so much though which makes it even more cringe.
@@BattleBrotherCasten First of Cyrax and Sektor were playable since MK3, not MK9. Secondly this is not coping the MCU, a ton of other IP's have done stuff like this way before the MCU started, including Marvel themselves in the comics and even MCU didn't started using the Multiverse concept until years after it begun. Hell WB games are more closer to DC universe which NRS also made the Injustice series after, so even if you wanna use the "copy-paste" card you should've use the DC universe, not MCU. Making new versions of characters is anything but lazy. You are truly misinformed beyond any belief. And how you know that "their personalities are gonna be so unlikeable"? We didn't see anything other than the trailer. You gotta check your head dude.
Nah they’re boring, overrated and already had their spotlight from MK 9 to MK 11. Special Forces and Black Dragon are so boring now. It’s time for the Red Dragon and other characters to have their spotlight. Hotaru, Chameleon, Drahmin, Moloch are better choices
I hope this game lasts for years.. I really want a huge Roster of main and kameos.. After MK11 disgusting roster, this one has been a blessing, yet we have a lot of iconic characters outside, hope we can get some of them back and more returns of obscure characters.
I'm not the biggest fan of 11 but the roster is one of the better things about it. I do hope that the roster is huge by the end of the game. Hoping the amount of variety in potential characters and kameos gives this game a long lifespan.
I agree. For this game to last years there must be a 3rd story expansion that comes with KP 3. Maybe even a KP 4 and a 4th story expansion Hopefully other MK characters like Hotaru, Chameleon, Drahmin, Moloch, Bo Rai Cho, Kai, Kintaro, and even Khrome get added as playable fighters
I would have asked him so much better questions like what can be done to prevent the leaks from dataminers and what are you doing more to prevent the leaks because we’ve known each KP months before it drops now in multiple games..just give the files fake names would work. Why don’t you do that? Will the next game be MK 2? Etc. instead we get a question like “will chaos reins have as much blood and gore?”
It feels like Mortal Kombat 1 could be a live service type game. I see the trends going in gaming right now. DragonBall Xenoverse 2 is still getting new content and that came out forever ago. I think MK1 has finally reached its apex as a gaming experience after such a shaky launch. Things broke here or there and they do well to fix it. Now the game feels complete and is an awesome experience. I would like to see a year 3 as well. Just keep adding to it for years. I would be very happy with it. Then do Injustice 3 next while still adding to MK1
They definitely need to fix Invasions and the reward system if they want it to be more successful. It's mobile game grindy and I'm hoping with Khaos Reigns they do plenty for the Single Player content and give us more modes to mess around with.
@@trebeezy16 I vote for the return of Chess Kombat lol. I do hear you though. The rewards are kind of drying up for going through such a grind in Invasions. They at least made some of the challenges a bit harder that teaches you how to play the game especially if you are someone like me that kind of struggles with the Kameo system this season with Kombo challenges that are easier than the ones in Tutorial. I hope they add an option to turn off the Kameo system down the line
I mean we are past the era where it was acceptable to release a new game every 4 years. People pay way to much money for these games nowadays and the graphical/gameplay innovations just arent that eye popping. So people rather want continuous support. Thats my only critique with DBFZ and Smash Ultimate. Those games had way more life in them. Although I guess if released now they would maybe have gotten more support like every fighting game seems to be aiming for these days.
Traditionally, the secret characters have always been ninjas. So most likely they finally make Khrome. And of course it's safe to say, Khrome will be female.
I feel like any sort of reboot to a story is weak storytelling. Moving the base story forward with new villains, elements, realms, details or twists and turns is much more interesting. No need to ever think about retelling the same story. just think like they did when they made MK 2. Keep expanding and making the lore more complex and deeper. But that might be difficult when you want to make a series continue on forever instead of having a definite end.
Please ed boons, listen to ur fans… make mortal kombat fast and kombo heavy like mkx. The last two mortal kombats have been extremely slow. The inputs have to be absurdly fast and precise. People the inputs are too strict in a way that it voids combos from happening and its just not fun. I dont suck st the game and im not the only one saying this. Maxdoo has issues with the inputs too. Now, tekeda is Amazing ! I hope this is the turn around because the characters this season again were not fun to use. As always the story is awesome and keeps getting better. I really like the doc characters and keep this stuff coming but the gameplay has dropped severely since mkx
@@MichaelTafkad Me too. I was just being sarcastic. Google Steppenwolf. He was in the Justice League movie and was supposed to be playable in Injustice 3.
@@SpiralSkylines in mkx and mk11 you coulds use online practice to test out lots of things with someone and try out tactics in actual scenarios also you could just messs around with no rounnds and waiting for loading etc after each fight also i got taught alot by various people online who were so kind to help me this is what online practice so its vital for coaches and pupils.
@@krushingbro6620 I thought they just meant the regular online practice that’s the same as offline but you’re still in there while waiting for a match. Never seen the feature you’re talking about. I guess I had no need for it.
Not gonna happen. Guest Characters broaden the appeal and they are there to entice casual players to buy the content. Just be happy its not all guest characters. They got a nice balance going 3 guests and 3 MK characters. When are people like you ever going to get it that guest characters are a marketing strategy. They will never stop including them.
@@udontknowmeg7254 And this is not a bad product. The game was kinda annoying when Homelander, but after a small break and him being patched, its very fun again.
@@Lance.Gardenhire If you like the game, more power to you. I see countless flaws in MK/NRS and WB as a whole and will no buy their products moving forward until they fix them.
@@thelastmuchacho6524 Well for one Ermac is comprised of millions of souls of both male and female so it would actually make sense if he were, and second, no, he is referred to as a "him" by NRS.
@@Terminated_Account I don't think people are realizing that NRS is not its own company. I remember when people were blaming NRS for the game's price tag. They're doing it again, actually.
Ed saying “six new characters” is fucking wild to me, we got noob saibot, 2 female iron man power ranger wannabes, and 3 random white dudes 🤢🤮 they’re running out of ideas for real
Im against the gender swap but man they sure looked cool though. I just hope they go back one day and im ok with it. But yea again this swapping of sex skin color isnt needed just make a new character like ur ed boon!
Quick someone asks ed if NeatherRealm is actually competent to make good balancing on characters, how much Kameos were a flop in MK, if he cares more about money or the game, why don’t they put more ideas into MK characters and not dumb ass guest characters, if they actually know how to fix the game and not let shit he broken for months on end, why the player count is damn low because MK1 needs to be taken out back and shoot 16 times. Ask him any of those and I bet he’s 3 dogs in a trenchcoat
Ed Boon and Netherrealm have bosses my friend and besides Hogwarts Legacy MK1 is the only successful game under the WBD banner and they are following suit with the trend in the industry. I keep seeing these complaints like yours but listen man welcome to gaming in the year 2024. Especially fighting games. Tekken 7 it was well over 200 dollars for everything in that game and it was the previous generation. Gaming is heading towards live service just getting more and more add ons. Its where we are at man. Get used to it. Every game now that is popular is gonna be costing anywhere between 200 and 250 dollars now.
@@bryanmahoney3434 the only thing I said about money was if ed boon cared more for the game or the money. Never once did I say I was bothered by the price. Yes they have bosses but both ed boon and John Tobias has a huge part in creative direction. I understand there is other fighting games like tekken. If I was complaining about tekken then I would go to a tekken video. That’s why my complaint are all purely Mortal Kombat.
I love how passionate Ed Boon is for this franchise still after all this time

This sucks. I was hoping they'd end MK1 early and move on to the next one. This one def has recieved the most criticism of the series.
Go and play Mario kart
@@Gentleman-TVOk 😅 as if that's an insult, it's a better game made by a better developer anyways 😂 GTFO
@@JohnSmith-rx9vt bro, he lost his brain, don't annoy him
@@JohnSmith-rx9vt yeah ok so now go and play Mario kart.
@@Gentleman-TVkid go to school
Can some one ask about the ridiculous micro transactions and ugly character designs.
we want Sonya Blade
Why?
They should do a kombat pack bringing back kano, soyna, Jax and erron black, this would make this the ultimate roster
No
You want Sonya 😂😂
Bring Jax and Sonya back
Noob Saibot will be non binary
Same with Ermac
@@thelastmuchacho6524to be fair he kinda admits it "we are many you are but one" lol 😂
"You sound like Bi Han!"
"I am he, but not as you remember."
@@thelastmuchacho6524 Well for one Ermac is comprised of millions of souls of both male and female so it would actually make sense if he were, and second, no, he is referred to as a "him" by NRS.
Noob -bi Han
Ermac - king jerrod
Ed Boon adding animality's just made America great again.
What kind of a person you need to be to go woke at 50+ age...
@@Terminated_Account exactly
I'd blame the QA lead Mrs Ballsack AKA previously for Steve Brownback for the gender bending ideas.
@@Terminated_Account I don't think people are realizing that NRS is not its own company. I remember when people were blaming NRS for the game's price tag. They're doing it again, actually.
They need to stop the two characters mode, bro mk1 8s just trash game
Don't believe his words he's lying
True
XD king of trolls.
You don’t even know the man🤷♂️🤦♂️
@@rubensanchez6618 who doesn't know nrs and boon?
@@lawrencemalata1503 the first guy comment
Ed saying “six new characters” is fucking wild to me, we got noob saibot, 2 female iron man power ranger wannabes, and 3 random white dudes 🤢🤮 they’re running out of ideas for real
The gender swap 👉🏾👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
Gender swap stinks
It’s okay to change it up not bad
Loooool. This game has NO future.
@@samanosukeakechi8038 they seem to think so as they sent several people to SDCC to do press and a panel.
You said this last year and it's still going lol
BIG FACTS.. Game is ssa.
The pack is #2 on ps5 pre orders. So think again.😂😂
Whats nr 1?@@dec2567
Im against the gender swap but man they sure looked cool though. I just hope they go back one day and im ok with it. But yea again this swapping of sex skin color isnt needed just make a new character like ur ed boon!
Gender swaps are more interesting
It dropped at mk11 he can't make games anymore for sh.t
Trash sektor and trash cyrax
Mortal Kombat 1 cringe Multiverse story plot. Mortal Kombat 1 sucks and has NO future.
TRASH GAME
If NRS will go further the way they went with MK1 then there's no future.
Woke
So there’s a hidden character in MK1 ?
Correct
Quick someone asks ed if NeatherRealm is actually competent to make good balancing on characters, how much Kameos were a flop in MK, if he cares more about money or the game, why don’t they put more ideas into MK characters and not dumb ass guest characters, if they actually know how to fix the game and not let shit he broken for months on end, why the player count is damn low because MK1 needs to be taken out back and shoot 16 times. Ask him any of those and I bet he’s 3 dogs in a trenchcoat
Ed Boon and Netherrealm have bosses my friend and besides Hogwarts Legacy MK1 is the only successful game under the WBD banner and they are following suit with the trend in the industry. I keep seeing these complaints like yours but listen man welcome to gaming in the year 2024. Especially fighting games. Tekken 7 it was well over 200 dollars for everything in that game and it was the previous generation. Gaming is heading towards live service just getting more and more add ons. Its where we are at man. Get used to it. Every game now that is popular is gonna be costing anywhere between 200 and 250 dollars now.
@@bryanmahoney3434 the only thing I said about money was if ed boon cared more for the game or the money. Never once did I say I was bothered by the price. Yes they have bosses but both ed boon and John Tobias has a huge part in creative direction. I understand there is other fighting games like tekken. If I was complaining about tekken then I would go to a tekken video. That’s why my complaint are all purely Mortal Kombat.
How about we keep things “interesting” Mr Ed by changing them back to male cyborgs next time?
