The eighth game in the Mortal Kombat series, MK vs. DC was released on November 16, 2008. MK vs. DC contains characters from both the Mortal Kombat franchise and the DC Universe. Its story was written by comic writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray. This was the last title to be developed and published by Midway Games, as it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and sold the rights to Mortal Kombat to Warner Bros. (also owner of DC Comics). This is also the first console MK game to have an unrestricted rating by the ESRB as well as the first MK game to be published by Warner Bros. Games.
