back in the day there was sub zero mythologies for n64. with todays technology the mk team could easily use the exact gameplay but wth realistic grachics to explain more about scorpion. maybe tell how scorpion changing for the good in mk8 and future installments. who might he fight in future storylines and etc. it would be an beat em up genre but have the mature rating on the cover of the box.
I personally dont think the MK team can make an action/adventure game, hell they can barley make a fighting game anymore. But if someone was handed the reigns to a scorpion type action/adventure it'd be awesome. Think if Team Ninja the people who made Ninja Gaiden or even the group that made God of War was able to do a game based on Scorpion...orgasmic.
