Mortal Kombat is a side-scrolling 1 on 1 fighting game. Fighting is set as one on one kombat, allowing each player to perform a variety of punches, kicks, and special moves in order to defeat their opponent. When the opponent faces their second round loss, the winner can perform a finishing move called a "Fatality" on the loser. The Fatality is a humiliation move that graphically kills the loser in a blood-soaked finale.

Videogame website MCV has posted a news update stating that Midway boss David Zucker confirmed in a conferance call with investors that Mortal Kombat 8 is indead slated for a 2008 release.

Mortal Kombat (commonly abbreviated as MK) is a popular series of fighting games made originally by Midway Manufacturing Company. Mortal Kombat began as a series of arcade games, which were picked up by Acclaim Entertainment for the home console versions. Now Midway exclusively creates home versions of Mortal Kombat. It is especially noted for its digitized sprites (which differentiated it from its contemporaries' hand-drawn sprites), and its high levels of blood and gore, including, most notably, its graphic fatalities - Finishing Moves, requiring a sequence of buttons to perform. These were so extreme that they, in part, led to the founding of the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB)

Mortal Kombat is back with a vengeance. Shaolin Monks is a very diverse game, blending elements of fighting, action, adventure, puzzles and some role playing. These different genres work well together and the arcade-style controls allow gamers of all skill levels, yes even beginners, to pick it up and play immediately.
