Official Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe characters list

Out of the complete Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe cast of 22 characters, all have been revealed like Sub-Zero and Batman, so we thought it was time to list the MK vs. DC characters below that have been confirmed for the upcoming November 16th, 2008, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 fighting game.

When you click on each Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe character’s name below, a window will pop up with a big picture of him / her.

NOTE: We also have a guide that explains how to unlock Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe secret characters and perform all fatalities.

The list of playable characters in alphabetical order:
1. Baraka (from Mortal Kombat)
2. Batman (from DC Comics)
3. Captain Marvel AKA Shazam or Captain Thunder (from DC Comics)
4. Catwoman (from DC Comics)
5. Darkseid (from DC Comics)
6. Deathstroke (from DC Comics)
7. Green Lantern (from DC Comics)
8. Jax (from Mortal Kombat)
9. Kano (from Mortal Kombat)
10. Kitana (from Mortal Kombat)
11. Lex Luthor (from DC Comics)
12. Liu Kang (from Mortal Kombat)
13. Raiden (from Mortal Kombat)
14. Scorpion (from Mortal Kombat)
15. Shang Tsung (from Mortal Kombat)
16. Shao Kahn (from Mortal Kombat)
17. Sonya Blade (from Mortal Kombat)
18. Sub-Zero (from Mortal Kombat)
19. Superman (from DC Comics)
20. The Flash (from DC Comics)
21. The Joker (from DC Comics)
22. Wonder Woman (from DC Comics)

Midway plans to support downloadable content after release, so it’s possible we’ll see downloadable characters.

Rumored characters*:
* Aquaman (from DC Comics)
* Goro (from Mortal Kombat)
* Johnny Cage (from Mortal Kombat)
* Robin (from DC Comics)

Unannounced but popular characters from both sides:
* Brainiac (from DC Comics)
* Doomsday (from DC Comics)
* Green Arrow (from DC Comics)
* Lobo (from DC Comics)
* Martian Manhunter (from DC Comics)
* Mileena (from Mortal Kombat)
* Reptile (from Mortal Kombat)
* What others do you think are missing?

The way these characters are put together in the story mode is rather simple. Depending on which side players choose (Mortal Kombat or DC Universe), they will see the characters from the opposite universe as the invaders of their own universe. This leads to unlikely alliances being forged on each side, but does this blind rage stop them from seeing the dark threat that merged the two universes and is set to destroy them all?

Characters that are normally super powerful have been toned down to make them balanced within the game, for example: Superman no longer as invulnerable as he usually is, so he can be hurt by Scorpion’s spear. This further expresses itself during fights, where characters will show permanent signs of damage like: bruises, blood marks, and broken or torn clothing pieces.

Creator Ed Boon gives a gameplay demonstration:

* Watch the John Tobias MK vs. DC comic book video to see a panel with all 4 rumored characters in it as he talks about “seeing all of the [game] characters represented in some way in the book.” It’s possible these characters will be the by the game’s creators previously mentioned downloadable content.

This list gets updated as more characters are confirmed. Last updated November 3.

For as mystical as the game is, both Dr. Fate and Etrigan the Demon should be added to the DC side as downloadable content:

Cyborg
Nightwing (Spare us from being subjected to Robin, please!)
Batgirl
Supergirl
Firestorm
Martian Manhunter
Mr. Freeze (as an even match for Subzero)
