I dunno, it could actually do MK some good if they worked on a new IP and set MK on the backburner just for a little bit and worked on some prepwork for it in the meantime. that would be lots of time for new and interesting ideas, and possibly even have it on next-gen consoles.

it's certainly not uncommon either either, devteams do this all the time. they'll split their team and have one side work on their upcoming project while the other team starts work on the foundation of a bigger project, and then once the other project's done the teams collab for the big one until the end of its development.
