Loading ...Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, originally known as Mortal Kombat 5: Vengeance, is a fighting game developed and produced by Midway. The game was released for the Xbox, PlayStation 2 and GameCube in 2002. Deadly Alliance was the first all-new Mortal Kombat fighting game produced exclusively for home consoles, with no preceding arcade release. [Info from Wikipedia]
At the Mortal Kombat Secrets website we can read many interesting info about the development of the game and its beta differences. Various characters were created for Mortal Kombat 5, but some of them were never used in the final game, as Kai, Dairou, Tiamat, Hachiman, Baphomet, The Evil Masters and Siobhan.
Also, some playable characters in Deadly Alliance went through a lot of changes before their final design, as Shang Tsung, Quan Chi (with a living weapon that never made it in to the game), Scorpion, Li Mei, Mavado and Frost. Early screens of the game are probably just target renders, as the graphic is nothing like the one in the final game. A Water Temple arena was also planned, but removed from the final version.

Some of the pix here are from an early alpha of MK5 Ed Bood had running on slightly updated MK4 arcade hardware (as seen from the pics with Scorpion and Jax) but the team was burned out. They set it aside for 18 months to work on The Grid. By the time they came back to MK5, they were blessed with the fact that 3dfx was dead and arcades were dying. No manufacturing overhead = easy to pitch console dev kits to upper brass.
