"It's not our goal to sell Mortal Kombat." This is what Geoff Mogilner of Midway told MTV Multiplayer in regards to the circulating assumption that the recent Chapter 11 filing of the game developer has the objective of selling the franchise off.

 

"It is something that, in the world of scenarios, it is something that could happen here. But it's not something that we as a company are going for," further explained the spokesperson. He did admit, however, that there are other publishers who have expressed their interest in MK.

Despite the rather long bumpy road the company has been traversing the past half year, the franchise team remains positive, and is in fact hard at work on another installment. The MK team is at work designing a new engine. We keep working."

No details were given out as to this new installment, but we'll be keeping our eyes peeled for that, and our fingers crossed for Midway Games.
