Any studio can create a petition asking for a remake of a beloved game like this, but what makes this particular game so interesting is that Eyeballistics says they received it. series creator Ed Boon’s endorsement for such a remake in 2016. However, Warner Bros., which owns Mortal Kombat IP, isn’t biting.
