Ludovic has been granted a very low bond! Thank you so much for all of the supporters. We had around 20 people in the court room and over 20 more supporting online. The judge was clearly moved. Everything he said was in favor of Ludovic. We could not have done this all without you!
Mortal Kombat 2 was not just a thunderous success befitting Raiden himself, it also established many of the crucial players and much of the relevant lore in the franchise. And now, 23 years later, it seems as if the game's film counterpart will be following in its footsteps.
The game's Steam page was updated to include a few new details, chief among them that there will be 20 heroes and villains to choose from when the game launches. "It's time to build your dream team and break some spirits in blistering four-versus-four fighting action. Choose from an expanding roster of 20 iconic Marvel characters at launch, each rendered in a bold new anime-inspired art style and members of their own unique teams of equally impressive heroes and villains," read the page.
Making games requires testing them. For microtransaction-fueled gacha games, that means putting your own money on the line to sample the merchandise. That's apparently what led Street Fighter 2 producer Yoshiki Okamoto to spend over $500,000 of his own money on his own game's loot boxes. Monster Strike is one of Japan's most lucrative gacha games and it's one Okamoto helped create after leaving Capcom in the early aughts.
On Thursday, SNK released a trailer for Fatal Fury: CotW 's upcoming second season, which launches on January 22. The trailer promises a pretty robust release schedule for the game's anniversary with monthly character drops over a six-month period. Returning characters Kim Jae Hoon, Nightmare Geese, Blue Mary, and Wolfgang Krauser are slated to join the game's roster, too. However, the excitement of fan-favorites returning has been almost entirely overshadowed by the game's latest trailer incorporating apparent AI-generated clips.
