Video Gaming News - September 2005

Chicago, IL (September 19, 2005) - Midway today announced that it has shipped Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks for the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox.

"Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks delivers on our plan to produce quality Mortal Kombat titles on an annual basis," said Steve Allison, chief marketing officer, Midway. "In expanding the Mortal Kombat universe in the action/adventure genre, players can expect a challenging and innovative gameplay experience that adds a fresh new look and feel to our best-selling franchise."

From Midway:

Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks is an Action/Adventure title driven by intense single- and multi-player gameplay action that is set in the period between the franchise's original title, Mortal Kombat, and Mortal Kombat II. As in the recently released Mortal Kombat: Deception, background interactions (e.g., acid pits, living trees, spiked ceilings, etc.), multiple new fatalities, and action-based puzzles will play an important role in the player's quest for an "outstanding" victory as they maneuver through remodeled, classic Mortal Kombat environments. In franchise tradition, Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks will also feature an impressive line-up of well-known characters that make frequent appearances as enemies, in boss battles and during several additional in-game interactions.
