During an 'Ask Capcom' session a fan of 1997's Rival Schools put it to the group if the publisher will ever be resurrecting the age old fighting franchise.
It got a PSOne update in Japan that included a life simulator alongside the action. Frankly even Capcom "never know what franchises" will make a return.

An all-new Mortal Kombat film? No, but fans can at least enjoy a 10-episode web series from director Kevin Tancharoen, the man behind the 8-minute short.
Tancharoen tried to fire up Warner Bros. with a MK short film. Actor Michael Jai White who played Jax in that short pitch will reprise his role in the web series.
