Speaking to MCV, Midway's European marketing director Leonie Manshanden has revealed that the publisher is expecting very big things from upcoming Xbox 360 and PS3 beat 'em up, Mortal Kombat vs DS Universe.

"We have very high sales expectations for MK vs DC. I can't tell you the exact number, but historically if you look at the franchise, every new MK on a new platform has done best. It's always enjoyed that upward trend. With this instalment we really think we're going to set another record."

Kotaku @ Comic-Con: We sat down with Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon tonight to chat about his latest project, Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe. Once again, we pestered Mr. Boon about the scrapped version of Mortal Kombat 8, once described by the long-term Midway dev as being heavily inspired by the look of Gears of War.

While that grittier, darker version of MK didn't make it far beyond the technology development stages - Boon told us there was little in the way of concept art for the grimier spin on the series - the next next Mortal Kombat may strive for more blood, more violence, more of everything that warrants an M-rating.

Kotaku: At last year's Midway Gamers Day, Mortal Kombat co-creator and series overlord Ed Boon talked up the then-unnamed eighth entry in the franchise. Boon described Mortal Kombat 8 at the time as "very dark, serious" and "gritty" take on the series, a back to basics reboot that was free of "vibrant, saturated colors." It was said to be heavily inspired by the look of Gears of War.

"About a week ago we received the news that Mortal Kombat vs. DC was in fact going to have Fatalities. While this remains the case, in a interview with with Gametrailers.com Ed Boon stated that he may at some point be interested in publishing another M rated Mortal Kombat game in the future.

"¿I also wouldn't rule out doing another M rated Mortal Kombat game."

That pretty much guarantees that this next installment of the MK universe will be rated teen. Some of you might be asking "how can the game include fatalities if it's rated T?" The answer is simple¿ they will likely tame them. "

Well, finally, the fatalities are back.

"GameSpot: Have you made any more headway on the fatality versus finishing

Ed Boon: Yes we have. All of the MK characters and all of the DC villains will have fatalities. The DC heroes who don't kill that often will have brutalities that will function just like fatalities but don't actually kill the opponent."

Hot off the heels of announcing a new podcast related to the development of the upcoming fighter, Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, a potential list of special edition extras was teased today. Gamers on Midway's mailing list for more info on MK vs. DC were treated with a survey earlier today that asked which extra they would be interested in if a "Kollector's Edition" was made available.

Possible extras include:

* Comic Book
* Art Book
* Soundtrack
* T-shirt
* Animation Cell
* Exclusive DC video
* Making of MK vs DC video

To be honest we'd like something a bit cooler that deserves the extra few dollars. Not that an art book isn't nice, but how about a statue of Batman punching the lights out of Sub-Zero? Or you know, Kryptonite. In case Superman loses it and someone needs to take him out. Think we'd still prefer the statue, actually.

Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon has responded to claims that fatalities are to be removed in the forthcoming MK vs. DC Universe, revealing that the popular feature will instead be modified.

Speaking to Gametop, Boon stated, "There was never any statement on our part that fatalities will be gone or that finishing moves will be gone."

"We did acknowledge that we won't be able to do the same kinds of outrageous moves, like tearing someone's head off and the spine being attached to it."

"But there are a lot of assumptions that there will be no blood in the game, that there are no fatalities in the game. It's an assumption that, because the DC characters will be in there, those features will have to be dropped. My response is that, no, we're modifying fatalities," he added.

Joystiq writes: When Midway announced that DC characters were splicing worlds with Mortal Kombat for a T-rated fighting game, we prepared our eulogy for the fatality, a staple of the MK universe that seemed to run against the DC philosophy. Not so fast, says MK series creator Ed Boon, who hints that the violent sendoffs will still be there, albeit in a tamer fashion.

Ed Boon tells VideoGamer.com he is working with ESRB to "see what we can get away with" with T-rating.

Ed Boon, creator of the Mortal Kombat series, has revealed that he is working with the ESRB to see how violent he can make upcoming beat-em-up Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.
