In the age of internet sleuths and fervid fans, it's a risk to leave files up on your screen when snapping a social media pic--hence why people are speculating that NetherRealm's producer Jonathan Andersen intentionally "leaked" the existence of Mortal Kombat 12 through a now-deleted photo on Twitter.

The photo was of his desk and various Mortal Kombat memorabilia, but eagle-eyed MK fans spotted a file name on his monitor titled "MK12_Mast…" To add more fire to the speculation, the snippet of an email in the same photo reads, "Our fans eagerly scrape the internet." NetherRealm boss Ed Boon is well known for teasing announcements, often in fairly obvious fashion, so it wouldn't be a surprise if the company were to do something like this intentionally.

According to VentureBeat journalist Jeff Grubb's GrubbSnax Selects episode 8, NetherRealm is likely to be currently working on MK12 since Warner Bros. doesn't want the studio on licensed titles, in case NetherRealm gets sold.
