Mod Koms: Fan Creates Mortal Kombat Fall Guys
Woo hoo! Flawless crossver!

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is the online multiplayer sensation taking the world by storm! Its squat mascot characters are ripe for novelty skins -- and one fan has taken it upon themselves to create the perfect Mortal Kombat crossover! Take a closer look:

Fall Guys combines the battle royale format with obstacle courses and mini-games. It's basically Takeshi's Castle meets Minions, resulting in a mean bean machine of rollicking playground fun that even offers a "Flawless Victory" achievement for players who survive a round without toppling over!

The playful nod to MK makes these Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 palette swap skins -- created by Twitter user Salsa -- a natural compliment to the cutesy carnage of competition.

Characters can choose two-tone color palettes and patterns unlocked in Fall Guys, but Salsa envisions a rainbow of Mortal Kombat characters inspired by the klassic design. From top to bottom, left to right, they are: Ermac, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Reptile, Rain, Noob Saibot, Smoke, Chameleon, and even Tremor!

It's not the first time we've seen someone suggest a mash-up between brutal kombat and kid friendly trends. This is right up there with MK Lego, MK Minecraft, and even the ultra convincing MK Fortnite designs created by Eric Tran!

Fall Guys has just added its first licensed tie-in skin to customization options: Portal 2's P-Body. Could a Mortal Kombat crossover actually eventuate?

Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath DLC Teases Femme Fatales
Klassic skin pack coming soon!

The Summer DLC schedule for Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath has been updated with a first look tease at the highly anticipated Klassic Femme Fatale Skin Pack! Take a closer look yonder:

Coming August 25th in early access for owners of Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath; the Klassic Femme Fatale pack draws retro inspiration from the palette swap designs introduced in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. These klassic skins will be available to Kitana, Jade, and Skarlet!

Skarlet was never actually in any of the original arcade trilogy, but her origins, much like Ermac's, come from a tradition of arcade fan rumors of a fabled red tinted palette swap. She replaces absent fighter Mileena in the traditional UMK3 lineup.

A majority 58.3% of MK Online users voted the Klassic Femme Fatale pack their most anticipated Aftermath DLC skins. 33.3% look forward to the still to-be-revealed Halloween offering of the All Hallow's Eve skins. You can buy the Masquerade Skin Pack now for $5.99. Aftermath packs will also be available for individual purchase.

What do you think now that we've seen the Klassic Femme Fatales? Who do you hope to see for All Hallow's Eve? Leave your thoughts and speculation in the comments below and find more in the Mortal Kombat 11 forum!

NetherRealm Previews Upcoming MK11 Kombat League Skins
Rewards inspired by Reptile & more!

NetherRealm Studios has released a new preview for a variety of skins coming soon to the Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath competitive online mode. The unlockable Kombat League rewards include themes inspired by D'Vorah, Kano and more. Take a closer look:

It looks like a Black Dragon event will outfit Johnny Cage, Cassie Cage, and Sindel in lightly armored red and pink gear, while Baraka and Kabal are one with the hive in Kytinn yellow and black -- camouflage inspired by the insectoid D'Vorah. Sure to cause the biggest stir is a green Scorpion skin clearly inspired by missing cult favourite Reptile.

Fans who found Reptile hiding throughout the Mortal Kombat 11 Krypt will have already unlocked Scorpion's green tinted Forest Ninja skin, but this design goes all-in on the Reptile reference, adding exposed scaly Zaterran flesh to green, palette swapped attire inspired by the first Mortal Kombat.

Fans will remember Reptile as the definitive secret character first introduced as a non-playable Scorpion palette swap. He joined an expanded playable roster in Mortal Kombat II, becoming a mainstay of the series until his surprise omission from MK11.

Zaterran Scorpion is pictured with the Kytinn skinned fighters. It's unclear if they will appear in the same Kombat League event, or if there may be a Reptile or Klassic based theme also coming down the line.

WB Interactive Unchanged in WarnerMedia Corporate Shuffle
Internal memo address WBIE status.

The fate of Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment remains the subject of intense speculation since reports that parent company AT&T may be interested in selling, but an internal memo released to WarnerMedia staff has addressed stability amidst a major corporate shuffle.

CEO Jason Kilar sent the e-mail on August 7th, which has also been made available via the corporate press room. It addresses a drastic streamlining of divisions within the company, centered around the elevation of the HBO Max streaming service. This includes passing reference to WB Interactive, which will remain under the purview of WB Chair & CEO Ann Sarnoff. The relevant excerpt appears below:

The Warner Bros. Motion Pictures Group continues to be led by Chairman Toby Emmerich. Warner Bros. Television Studios group continues to be led by Chairman Peter Roth. Warner Bros. Interactive remains part of the Studios and Networks group, along with our Global Brands and Franchises team including DC led by Pam Lifford, and our Kids, Young Adults and Classics business led by Tom Ascheim, all focused on engaging fans with our brands and franchises through games and other interactive experiences.

The restructuring has seen massive layoffs at DC Comics and DC Universe streaming, both directly impacted by the prioritizing of HBO Max. DC Direct in-house merchandising has also suffered significant cutbacks according to a report by The Hollywood Reporter.

With the focus of the memo chiefly on HBO Max, few conclusions can be drawn regarding the future of Warner Bros gaming divisions. It is unclear if no news is good news, but business appears to continue as normal for now, with Rocksteady Studios announcing a Suicide Squad game, and NetherRealm Studios continuing to hire for key positions.

Ed Boon is scheduled to appear later this month at the DC FanDome 24-hour virtual fan event, which included Mortal Kombat 11 in a promotional hype trailer. MK11 is releasing new downloadable skins this month. The Injustice series also made a recent return with a new comic book series.
