Midway has confirmed that Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks will deviate from the standard fighting
genre of the series. The game will be a beat-em-up action/adventure title, featuring platforming, puzzle-solving, and
2-player co-op. This is dangerous territory for the developer, who would surely prefer we all forget the N64 Sub-Zero
offering of a similar nature. Shaolin Monks is expected next fall.
