According to Kotaku the Mortal Kombat team, composed of 50 developers, are in discussion with other publishers.
According to Midway sources who wished to remain anonymous, said one of the catalysts for the move is a lack of payment in bonuses due to MK team members based on meeting Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe sales targets.
Sources say the Mortal Kombat team has become increasingly frustrated with Midway’s bankruptcy filing. MK also discussed issues with having to produce million unit-sellers in a bi-annual schedule.
Midway refused to comment on the current status of the Mortal Kombat team’s plans.
