Who doesn't love Mortal Kombat? It's a great franchise. Everything about it has been awesome. The games, the movies (the second one was so bad it was funny), the arcades...you name it, and Midway has squeezed the Mortal Kombat fruit with an overbearing grip and it's still got more to give.

It isn't a huge surprise that we'd see a Mortal Kombat title on the 7th gen consoles, especially since the last game Armegeddon refused to jump aboard the higher-spec boat. However, we've received word that during an investor conference call, Midway CEO David Zucker blatantly said it will exist.

Knowing Midway, we'll get it just a bit too soon, probably late this year or early next.
