MK3 Omega!
Welcome to the MK3 Omega homepage. Yes, MK3
Omega is coming out and
it will be the final upgrade to MK3 before MK4. Why? Well, it's obvious
UMK3 is dead now. Originally, it was supposed to be the final upgrade to
Ultimate but it ended up being so huge they had to rename it. This is
also another way to keep the arcade fresh when UMK3 comes home.
That's the only picture I managed to get from my source(who wish to
remain anonymous). As you can see, Baraka makes his long awaited return.
From the picture it looks like he has his old moves, the spark and slicer.
The background looks like the tower stage from MK2.
Here is the info on MK3 Omega:
- Story: The Earth warriors manage to wipe out most of Kahn's
Death Squads. The final kombat between Kahn and Kang was interrupted
when Goro made his apperence and help Kahn escape. Apparently, Goro was
freed from his imprisonment in Hell during UMK3. Since Kahn's forces and
power have been weakened considerably, Raiden now runs the MK3 Tournament.
Kahn enlist the help of Goro and Baraka to help him win the tournament.
- Characters: A lot of characters are gone to make room for new
ones. The casualties list(as in dead):Kabal, Sheeva, Robo Smoke, Jax,
Nightwolf, Sektor, Stryker, Cyrax, Kung Lao, and Motaro. People who
won't be playable are: Kitana and Sindel(kidnapped by Mileena and Baraka) and
Liu Kang(get this: Final Boss). Supposedly, they refilmed Kang to be a lot
cooler. Kahn is still missing as there will be a way to access him. So,
the characters that will be selectable are: Shang Tsung, Classic
Sub-Zero, Sub-Zero, Ermac, Mileena, Kano, Scorpon, Jade, Sonya, Reptile.
New ones include: Human Smoke(why?), Rain(why?), and Noob Saibot(why?).
Of course, the newest ones are Baraka and Goro. That's 15 characters
playable off the bat. That leaves the entire top row(7 characters) empty.
Why? There will be 7 Ultimate Kombat Kodes but get this! There will be
an internal timer that will randomly make each box accessible each week
so people can sample the newest characters. So one week, you play
Character X, but next week, he is disabled and Character Y is playable.
If you enter the UKK's, they will be perminantly playable. The coolest
thing is that all the hidden characters are unique. They did a reversal
so that you actually earn a cool character, not a dumb swap.
- New Features: Finally, Brutalities will be in it. Remember,
this was originally going to be the final upgrade for Ultimate so it was
indeed planned for UMK3. What's a Brutality? It's a double Fatality.
You can still finish off the dead body. Like, do a normal Fatality but
add more joystick motion and button combo and it will first do the normal
Fatality and then do the all new Fatality on the dead body. Excellent!.
Go and ask your arcade manager for it! It's coming soon!
