The 9th Mortal Kombat looks, by all accounts, to be a fine return to form for the formerly faltering fatality-fuelled fighter. I’ll be honest in saying that I’ve pretty much hated almost every iteration since the 2nd; the dial-a-combos introduced in 3 made it a game about who could press buttons quickest – and the weapon-based gameplay introduced afterwards made the game a poor man’s Soul Calibur – only much bloodier.
In the trailer after the jump you can see how the game’s iconic “Pit†level has evolved through the game’s many versions – and just how awesome it looks for the new game, due next year.

This is looking epic indeed. Reminds me of the 2nd game that had loads of atmosphere.

Apparently Mortal Kombat makes Geoff think about Brad Pitt. So gay.
