Multiple leaks and teases over the course of nearly a year and a half have suggested that NetherRealm Studios’ next game is going to be Mortal Kombat 12, while studio founder and creative director Ed Boon has also confirmed that it’ll be either that or Injustice 3

With Mortal Kombat 11 being over three years old at this point, many have wondered when it’ll be time for the developer to reveal its next game yet. If, however, you were hoping that an announcement would come at The Game Awards next week- well, there’s bad news for you.

Taking recently to Twitter, Ed Boon confirmed that the studio will not be announcing anything at The Game Awards on December 8. “Thank you for the anticipation, but we’re not ready to announce the next NetherRealm Studios game yet.”

Though the absence of what’s likely to be Mortal Kombat 12 is going to sting, it’s looking like the upcoming event is going to be packed with several major announcements nonetheless, with reports pointing to the likes of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Diablo 4, Final Fantasy 16, Kojima Productions’ next game, and more.
