00:03Hi, my name is Ed Boone. I'm the Creative Director for the Mortal Kombat team, and we'd like to show
00:08you a demonstration of our newest game, Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe.
00:13During this demo, you'll see a number of new features in action. You'll also see how we've managed to merge
00:18these two universes' mythologies, characters, and fighting abilities into one game.
00:24Let's start the demonstration with two of the more recognizable characters from both franchises, Superman and Scorpion.
00:31This fight should give you a good idea of how the game plays, and how we've managed to get these
00:36radically different characters from two different universes to work in the same game.
00:41The first question that most people ask about our game is, how will any character be a challenge against Superman?
00:47Our story mode is going to fully explain the details, but the quick answer is that Superman actually does have
00:54two weaknesses, kryptonite and magic.
00:57Since the Mortal Kombat universe has a rich background in sorcery and love, this brings Superman down to a more
01:03level playing field.
01:05As you can see, Superman has many of his signature powers available to him.
01:10In addition to his heat vision and freeze breath, he has a number of special moves that utilize his ability.
01:17Special moves like these can be custom linked together like no previous Mortal Kombat game has done before.
01:23Here is an example of some of the creative ways players can string together Superman's special moves.
01:36Scorpion has a number of new moves, as well as enhanced versions of his classic special moves.
01:42This is a good demonstration of how some of his new and classic moves can be strung together for some
01:47pretty devastating combos.
01:58Let's move on to our next fight, demonstrating some of Batman's and Sub-Zero's abilities.
02:07Like Superman and Scorpion, both characters have a deep history with well-known abilities, all of which are represented in
02:13their fighting style and special moves.
02:15One of the new features in our fighting system is something we call close combat.
02:20Close combat is a brief, up-close and intense fighting mode that either player can activate by grabbing their opponent
02:26and pulling them in.
02:28During close combat, the aggressor unleashes a series of brutal attacks while the opponent tries to end it with his
02:35own set of defensive counter moves.
02:38Close combat ends when either the aggressor gets in the maximum number of hits or the defender successfully counters an
02:45attack.
02:47This takes us to Flash and Sonya. Flash is some of the most dynamic moves in the game.
02:56And Sonya has regained all of her classic moves from the old Mortal Kombat games.
03:00Another new fighting mechanic we have is called free-fall combat.
03:05Now, when fighters are knocked off the edge of an arena, they can actually fight during their fall down to
03:11the arena below.
03:12Like close combat, free-fall combat consists of an aggressor and a defender.
03:17But during free-fall, a successful counter results in both fighters swapping positions, changing the defender to the attacker.
03:24Fighters can swap positions several times during a fall.
03:27When landing from free-fall, the fighter on defense takes the accumulated damage.
03:33After landing below, the action reverts back to the main combat fighting mode.
03:54This wraps up our demonstration of Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.
03:58We are very excited to show you much more in the near future, as well as the final version, which
04:03comes out this November on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 computer interface.
04:08to be a playable mode.
04:11This was an extreme time in the game for five years.
04:14I don't have any attention ever since the first ever since the first ever since has turned into the new
04:14character.
04:14My Name, I saw a ловy thing in��.
04:14I was so excited to make this part of the only man who had to learn more.
04:16I was about to show you what I thought.
