Midway Confirms Fatalities For Mortal Kombat Worlds Collide

batman_render1 Midway Confirms Fatalities For Mortal Kombat Worlds Collide
Before you get your Superman Underoos fully wadded you should know that Midway is only guaranteeing Fatalities for the Mortal Kombat crew and the DC villains that make it into Mortal Kombat Worlds Collide. Heroes known for their high moral fiber won’t have a deadly finishing move, but they will have a non-fatal Brutality. The announcement at least implicitly admits to some DC bad guys making the cut (up till now Batman and Superman have been the only comic characters to make the official roster). But it doesn’t really set a hard line for whether or not Batman will get to finish someone Dark Knight-style. If he gets stuck with a Brutality he could just transform his fallen opponent into a brightly dressed young boy and lead them down into a cave. That’s better than murder, right?
