The last major AAA game example I can think of that had such a short window between announcing it and releasing it was Fallout 4, and that was a long time ago at this point. So there were a bunch of variables involved that eventually made us realize, "Okay, let's do another Mortal Kombat game and hopefully we'll get back to the Injustice games."Īnd I want to ask you about the short window and waiting so long to announce the game. I think to some extent players haven't seen a new Mortal Kombat announcement for so long, so It was just building up for so many years and it just culminated with that video. But at the same time, the response was so big, it was bigger than our Mortal Kombat 11 trailer, and I thought we were never going to top that. What was the mood of the team like that day? I'm sure you were expecting it to do well, but how was the vibe on the team when this announcement trailer, which was such a good cinematic trailer, set up the game so well?ĮB: It was a huge exhale moment for us as we've never held onto a game in terms of talking about it for so long. Now, that reveal trailer from a few weeks ago also did huge numbers. And so the game is Mortal Kombat 1, and we just announced it and we're happy about that. I know you don't want to talk out of school about the guy signing the checks necessarily, but what was your and the team's reaction when that happened? Because obviously that was not something that you were expecting.Įd Boon: Well, he called it Mortal Kombat 12, so he kind of really didn't spoil it. The announcement trailer was huge, but you did have your announcement spoiled a little bit by your parent company's CEO on an earnings call.
