Having completed its $33 million acquisition of Midway, a deal which included the Mortal Kombat franchise, Warner is looking to hire a senior software engineer in networking to “push the boundaries” of online interaction.

The job listing states: “You will work closely with architects and designers on both the Mortal Kombat team and the advanced technology group to help design and implement functionality ranging from the core network transport layer all the way to owning the final implementation of brand-new features that will revolutionise online play.”

The most recent entry in the Mortal Kombat series, MK vs. DC Universe, featured basic online support allowing players to go head-to-head with other online gamers. Words like revolutionise suggest we can expect much more in the online department from the next Mortal Kombat.
