Mortal Kombat vs. Marvel Universe

I thought of restarting my fic, maybe it's time to start a darker, edgier story with some of Mortal Kombat 4's cast maybe minus the less popular characters.  It will be an unofficial sequel to Mortal Kombat (2011) to where events will take place in a darker, edgier fashion... while rather than spanning 25 years as Mortal Kombat X had done, it will be a rewrite of Mortal Kombat 4 which may ignore the less popular characters in favor of the more popular ones.  It's time to narrow down the characters.

Characters and plot:



The whole premise would comprise of the rise of Shinnok from the Netherrealm but this time, aside from the Revenants, he has entirely new allies.  The forces of darkness will have Shinnok and Loki team up to defeat the thunder gods of their respective realms.  Thor and Raiden team up to defeat this new deadly alliance of dark gods.  Shinnok had escaped the Netherrealm as he this time, grabs the REAL Amulet and starts raging havoc like never before.  Shinnok seeks to get rid of the Elder Gods, Loki seeks to rule all of Asgard.


Another deadly alliance you can imagine is between Pluto and Quan Chi.  Behind the scenes, Pluto was responsible for collecting the souls of the Kombatants, creating the Revenants.  The deceased heroes of Mortal Kombat (2011) were namely Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Kitana, Smoke, Sindel, Sub-Zero, Stryker, Kabal, Jax and Jade but I might omit some characters.  Liu Kang and Kung Lao may be freed of their Revenant status but Liu Kang must struggle with the evil within and two, they must free their friends from the control of the Forces of Darkness.  Some villains that will be here are Kano instead of Jarek teaming up with Bullseye, Shang Tsung teaming up with the Mandarin, Scorpion and Reptile (who may team up with Lizard who in here, is under Loki's control), Mileena and Baraka (to fight against Wolverine in Sabertooth's place).


Thor and Raiden are the thunder gods who team up to defeat the new deadly alliance of Loki and Shinnok.  To battle the forces of darkness, they have enlisted the aid of Shang Chi, Captain America, Psylocke, Iceman, Punisher, Deadpool, Luke Cage, Ghost Rider, Spiderman, Wolverine, Iron Man, Elektra and Miss Marvel.  Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade are the only ones left to defend their world and must ally with the Marvel Universe or they will all be destroyed.  Shinnok and Loki are now both teaming up to take over their respective worlds but will a treacherous alliance last?

Gameplay imagined:


For Mortal Kombat vs. Marvel Universe, it will stick to the whole basic controls of Mortal Kombat (2011) and it will exist as a tag team game, similar to Tekken Tag Tournament 2 but it will remain as a 2.5D fighting game - 3D graphics in a 2D fighting plane.  The game will remove the X-Ray moves in favor of the Super Combo which is like Liu Kang throwing a super fireball, akin to the Street Fighter franchise but will be much more brutally done.  Stage fatalities will still be kept for certain stages while introducing a new concept of the Brutality.

Mortal Kombat X will have the Brutality return like the Ultra Combo in Killer Instinct, except it will be bloodier.  The Brutality must be executed within a combo and that it should be the final combo when the opponent's life bar is in critical condition.  As a result, a heavy combo will be created which will land a severely mutilated opponent.  The Brutalities will feature the use of several special moves in the process and you will get to watch your opponent brutally mauled.  But unlike Killer Instinct, I wouldn't want to have too many hits so we can proceed to the next match and we see the bloody carcass on the floor.

So you want more gameplay?  I would want to add the Ghost Battle which is similar to Tekken aside from the current bare minimum of Arcade, Training and Online battles.  The Challenge Tower would still be given in its own way, maybe more similar to that of Mortal Kombat X's Challenge Tower.


At the same time, the game will feature an amalgamation of Shinnok and Loki who is fought after defeating the tag team boss of Loki and Shinnok.  This final boss character will be an unplayable cheap motherf***er who would be very annoying.  This final boss would present a bigger challenge as this time, I would give him immunity to projectiles and they reflect back at the opponent like it did for Motaro in Mortal Kombat Trilogy.  This version of Corrupted Shinnok would be a being of pure malice, born out of two evil fallen gods as their combined hatred turns them into this despicable one being of pure evil.
