Spawn is returning to popularity thanks to his collaboration in Mortal Kombat 11, as he will join the video game as a DLC character with a quite realistic design and very cool movements. This has caught the attention of many fans of the antihero, and of course, has moved the creator of the character, Todd McFarlane, who has been in a recent interview with Comicbookwhere did you say that would love to watch a Spawn video game of his own, that it is time for it to be done.
The last video game of the character it came out in 2004 for PS2, GameCube and Xbox
"The answer is yes. It's been a long time, and I don't know if any of them did well in terms of what's possible in my brain. And part of that was, as you know, advanced technology, right? I mean, especially … it's been around long enough that video games have come a long way, as have special effects and movies. And the easiest way to reach all of those people is to put things in front of them where they spend their days, and where they spend their days looking at their laptops and cell phones. And also watch and go to the movies and watch TV shows. So, you have to stand in front of them and say, 'Hey, do you want to go play this cool thing called the video game Spawn that is nothing like what you've seen in those other areas?' But now you're aware of the name.
Simply put, Todd McFarlane has referenced that first you need to have a movie to be able to publicize the story of the character to make the audience familiar with him. In this way, people would be more motivated to play a new Spawn game.
