Ed Boone of Netherreem Studios has received numerous requests to place characters in the Death Combat series. When Milina was dropped from Mortal Combat 11’s base list, fans rushed to find out about the disappointment of the cat and other NRS about Kitan’s lack of clones.
While the appeal to Milina is sensible, not every request should be taken seriously. During an interview Festigam Twitch Channel, Ed Boone expressed the strange request he had received. Yes, this is much harder than the (ultra instinct) idea of putting Shaggy in the death knell11.
“What’s the weirdest request from fans to add to Mortal Gombat?” Ed Poon asked the interviewer.
“Why not put Ed Cat as a fighter in the game?” I think it will be when they ask that. “” I never understood why they would ask that. This is a strange question. “
Unfortunately for fans who want to see Ed Boon face off against the likes of Scorpion and Sub-Zero in Mortal Gombat, this is not the most possible scenario according to Boone.
“I do not think it will ever happen,” Boone continued. “I don’t want people to come up with ways to cut my head off.”

At this point, the interviewer commented that it might be a good idea to mark the 30th anniversary of Mortal Gombat. Boone, with a smile, did not fully agree with this opinion.
“Don’t expect it,” Ed Poon concluded.
It seems that Knob Saiboat fans will have to find a solution to pay homage to the names of Death Combat co-creators Ed Boone and John Tobias.
