[Update] The Mortal Kombat X Posters Are Real, Ed Boon Updates Twitter Profile Pic
Update: Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon has updated his twitter avatar to match the recently leaked Mortal Kombat logo.
Ahhh.... that fits better!

The new logo differs only slightly, with a small adjustment to the dragon's eye. Boon's header image also matches the poster with the words "who's next?" written in the same font as the poster above.
Thanks to Alex Stone for the news tip!
Original story:
Earlier today, images of a poster with a broken spine, the Mortal Kombat logo, and the words “Who’s Next?” appeared online. We questioned their authenticity, but were able to secure independent images of the materials.
The first images surfaced via a Reddit user named “itshappening24.” One of our readers was able to provide us with independent confirmation.
Ed Boon has been teasing a reveal for June 2, which has largely (but not exclusively) hinted at a new Mortal Kombat title. We’ll know more next week, but it looks pretty certain that we’ll be executing fatalities at some point in the near future.
Our Take
As a big fan of NetherRealm and the most recent Mortal Kombat, I’m excited to see what Ed Boon and his team have been working on.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
