Mortal Kombat 1 Has Sold Nearly 3 Million Units in 2 Months. Will focus ion 3-4 year release cycles and live service - eviltoast

Most interesting part of the article:

"Our focus is on transforming our biggest franchises from largely console and PC-based with 3-4 year release schedules to include more always-on gameplay through live services, multiplatform, and free-to-play extensions, with the goal of having more players spending more time on more platforms. U

What a major turn-off ngl.
