Ed Boon, co-creator of Mortal Kombat and Injustice, teased us all hard. The NetherRealm Studios creative director went to Twitter to hint that a Marvel vs DC fighting game could be coming soon!In the comic book world, Marvel and DC characters have butted heads a few times and that's the way we like it. Who wouldn't want to see Iron Man vs Superman? Everyone wants that! Unfortunately, we live in a corporate nightmare, so the prospects of a Marvel vs DC crossover look rather bleak these days....Or do they?
Is A Marvel vs. DC Fighting Game Coming?
The American god-king of the fighting game genre, NetherRealm Studios' Ed Boon, has been dropping hints on Twitter that make it look like a Marvel vs. DC Fighting Game is coming. For context, in addition to Mortal Kombat, NeatherRealm Studios also made Injustice, a game famous for having DC characters punch each other in the face. Also, the studio releases a game every two years, and since Mortal Kombat 11 is from 2019, so a new Fighting Game from NetherRealm Studios should be coming this year.

One last bit of context: director James Gunn is known for Guardians of the Galaxy (Marvel), but also made the soon-to-be-released Suicide Squad 2 (DC). Now let's take a look at Mr. Boon's tweet....
Wow. @JamesGunn has managed to work on DC and MARVEL movies. That's impressive. https://t.co/A4Yk437MuM

You know the internet rule: when someone posts this emoji, there's always more to the statement. Ed Boon has already made a game with DC and emphasized that you can work with DC and Marvel together? Come on, how obvious can it get that NeatherRealm are working on aMarvel vs DC fighting game!
Ok... I got a bit carried away. Of course, this is all still pure speculation - NeatherRealm Studios hasn't officially announced anything yet. But: E3 is coming up, and the studio is usually always part of the show. We're not saying that a Marvel vs DC fighting game is definitely 100% coming.... but we certainly hope so.
