Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.. otherwise known as, that one Mortal Kombat game without great amounts of blood or gruesome Fatalities. At least the idea of characters from the DC Universe fighting would be revisited in the Injustice game series.
A DC villain who was set to appear in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, but was likely replaced by Darkseid. Evidence that this character was considered can be found in some character packages, such as The Flash's package. The NameTable.txt reveals the following :
The files in question are 'ObjectRedirectors', which are tiny files and not actual textures. Brainiac is seen much later on as the main antagonist in Injustice 2.
Quan Chi's files are found in a similar way Brainiac's were. While Quan Chi is found in the game's Story Mode, they are video cutscenes and thus he does not have a dedicated file. It was suggested alongside Harley Quinn that Quan Chi would have been DLC, but they would have to wait until the next few games for their appearance.
A naked guy who is colored red and blue for Mortal Kombat and DC respectively. The art files related to him call this guy 'Silhouette', and he seems to also have been a placeholder/test for the DLC characters slot (which in the final game are used for Shao Kahn/Darkseid).
The legs for the DC Basemale are darker than the rest of him, and the Character Select icon was used in early versions of the game for fighters that weren't available yet. In Mortal Kombat 9, the MK Basemale's portrait gets reused for the 'DLC Character Select' icon that's not normally selectable in that game (as it immediately opens up the DLC character select, so you'll need to do a glitch to see MK Basemale). The character has a model and textures, which are exactly what's depicted in his artwork ( except he has a bright purple skin color ). He uses Baraka's Test your Might icon and Scorpion's lifebar icon. He also has Green Lantern's 'Boxing' style (animations for Close Kombat), a test MKScriptBinary (which contains nothing), and his own MKScriptBinary gives him Scorpion's voice.
NameTables also reveal the internal, or official names of character finishing moves. Heroic Brutalities were also once simply called 'Brutalities', with no Heroic prefix.
Character | Fatality 1 | Fatality 2 |
---|---|---|
Baraka | Kick Stab | Slash Impale |
Jax | Head Klap | Machine Gun |
Kano | Double Leg Massive Stomp | Knife Throw |
Kitana | Fans 2 Face | Kiss of Death |
Liu Kang | Arcade Drop | Bicycle Kick Fireball Combo |
Raiden | Skeleton Sizzle | Throw from Sky |
Scorpion | Fire Breath | Going 2 Hell |
Shang Tsung | Choke Stomp | Transform Soulsteal |
Sonya | Flipover Neckbreak | Kiss of Death |
Sub-Zero | Body Freeze and Smash | Freeze |
Batman | Grappling Hook | Summon Bats |
Captain Marvel | Headfirst into Ground | Shazam |
Catwoman | Scratch Slam | Whip Drag Necksnap |
Deathstroke | Stab Shoot | Sword Neck Snap |
Green Lantern | Bubble Crush | Mallet Crush |
Lex Luthor | Twist of Fate | Calling Reinforcements |
Superman | Freeze Sky Crash | Pound |
The Flash | Quadruple Flurry | Tornado Lift |
The Joker | Phony and Real Gun | Deal Me In |
Wonder Woman | Lasso Rotations | Lasso Top Spinner |
Kitana's first Fatality name is a reference to a earlier version of it, where she throws the fans into the opponents face rather than the heart. Source
Evidence that the 3 boss characters would've had Fatalities is a NameTable in their packages referring to the 'fatality cam'. However though aside from 'Fatality Growl' voice clips these are the only ones, and they don't give any idea on what they would've had.
This game has a handful of unused sounds, all being SFX (and a couple voice clips) that never made it through and suggest much different ideas for what could've been Mortal Kombat 8. Unlike in future games, all characters have a Snd_SFX/Vo package rather than being in the character packages. Within the character packages are just coding for when these sounds are to play, these refer to PS3/Xenon/PCData, suggesting the game was going to have a PC port at one point or a PC dev build of the game was used. 'Xenon' is one of the Xbox 360's codenames.

vo_dark_fatality_growl | Sorry, your browser either has JavaScript disabled or does not have any supported player. You can download the clip or download a player to play the clip in your browser. | Darkseid growling before a Fatality. This voice clip would be shortened for Dark Kahn's 'Rage On' voice clip. |
vo_shao_fatality_growl | Sorry, your browser either has JavaScript disabled or does not have any supported player. You can download the clip or download a player to play the clip in your browser. | Shao Kahn growling before a Fatality. In the final game this is actually one of his 'On Fire' voice clips, but without the Rage effect. |
vo_dkkn_death01 | Sorry, your browser either has JavaScript disabled or does not have any supported player. You can download the clip or download a player to play the clip in your browser. | A death scream for Dark Kahn. Sounds like Shao Kahn's scream. |
Dark Kahn has a Fatality Growl but it ends up used in the final game for some of his attack yells and right before you face him in Story Mode. He also has a falling scream used when you use a Free-Fall Super Move on him.
Some UI sound clips leftover from the previous game.

There is a used sound clip for the Super Bar being used, it's the one when you do a 'Enhanced' special move ( such as Jax's gotcha grab having extra punches ). Perhaps that is how you would have used this 'Super Bar' and enhanced specials would've been limited.
To do: Get a better video that is more 'demonstration' in nature. |
This video showing game play of Dark Kahn shows a couple unused things related to him. First he has a 'Enrage' special move similar to one of the Joker's, where he roars and fills up part of his Rage meter. And secondly, he has a unused P2 color which gives him a yellowish tint to his body. Also classified as a DC character.
A placeholder name for a Kombo Challenge. Repeated 9 more times.
Located within the 'message box' text data. As noted above, Quan Chi and Harley Quinn were meant to be DLC for this game, but ended up not making it and having to wait until the next games.
Likely a earlier name for Extras or how you would've accessed a DLC store. Found within the menu options text data.
Located within the text data for the menu options is a entry for the Krypt.
There's also a 'UI_S_Krypt' file, containing this picture of shiny MK and DC logos, a font, and a blank picture called 'xbox_Back'. In previous Mortal Kombat games (as well as the games that come after this one) you can earn Koins to purchase unlockable content within the Krypt. This game doesn't feature Koins either.
A entire font for the Krypt.
To do: Replace the dead link. |
Like in future Mortal Kombat games, there's a file for configuration named Coalesced. Here there's many Unreal Editor data, such as keybinds for a shooter-styled game. There's also a package file with a ton of Unreal Editor related icons, you can view these with Umodel. The Coalesceds can be viewed with Notepad++.
Iso pc games torrent. Feeling adventurous?
A 'stage' that has a blank floor and a wall that has colorbars.
A stage for testing characters. It has a 'Dome' and a flat ground.
Contains particles such as a laser beam, fire, smoke, and.. a picture of Bart with his pants down.
As the name implies, it's a completely empty map.
