In case you missed it, people want to see Shaggy in Mortal Kombat 11. Yes, that Shaggy; Scooby-Doo's sandwich-loving, cowardly best mate and fellow member of Mystery Incorporated. No the artist Shaggy, in case you wondered. It wasn't him.

While Mortal Kombat is no stranger to adding guest characters to its roster over the past few years (even Kratos turned up in 2011's eponymous series reboot), NetherRealm has confirmed that Shaggy (unsurprisingly, even though I'd love to see it happen) won't be appearing in MK11.

'Shaggy will not be in the game, ever, sorry, dead meme!,' said community boss Tyler Lansdown, during the recent Kombat Kast (via GameSpot). Oh well, at least the dream was nice while it lasted, eh? Even Ed Boon got in on the fun on Twitter.

Mortal Kombat 11 is out on April 23 for PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One, and while not featuring Shaggy, it will include Kabal and Kano.
