Further characters to be revealed?

Besides those guys you have mentioned, I bet we are missing these characters who are from MKT that will most likely be in this game:
Sonya
Jax
Cyrax
Smoke
JADE (one of my most favorites)
Kano
Goro
Kintaro
Ermac
Rain
Kabal
Sindel
Motaro (4 legs)
Sheeva
Khameleon (She has a very good storyline in the MK universe.)



i wouldn't be so negative , kira is in the game in some sort of way and she made her debut in DECEPTION . so characters you want in their might be .

Yes you're right. I also noticed a few others in the game too. In the same stage as where Kira is, Li Mei is tied up like her in the other side of the arena. In the Pit 2, I can see Daegon fighting Reiko in the tag team scene and Daegon fighting Kenshi in the scene where Nightwolf fires his arrow at Reptile. So yeah that narrowed down my list. I just hope, Nitara and Tanya are playable even as secret characters. I have a good feeling that Sonya, Kitana, Sindel, and Jade will be playable. It would be great if Jade and Sindel are secret characters. If they are all in the roster, I'll team them up with one another and brutally kill my opponents. I'm still hoping for NASTY fatalities for my ladies to perform (nasty as Kung Lao's Buzzsaw Fatality).

True. If Smoke is in it, I hope they do something to prevent him from essentially negating the use of Scorpion.
i agree! but i have a feeling that if smoke is playable, he is going to be amazing, i just wonder what kind of fighting style they gonna give him, because i cant see him do the exact same thing as in MKT i mean that was just some sort of pallet swap, i bet u what we are going to see ( if he is playable ) will be mind blowing.
 
Pretty sure Khameleon wont make it as she started as a Nintendo Exclusive.

As for characters if this game does well...which it should...I could see tons and tons of DLC characters later on.
 
Smoke is the most played character in UMK3. Since this is being done to satiate the 2D MK fans, it's almost a given that he'll be playable.
 
MK4 marked the decline for the series in both gameplay and story. (For most people, at least.) Boon himself has said this is a response to fans who've been asking for a new game more in line with the series' roots. With that in mind, I think by "reboot", he is meaning this is going to not only follow the 2D gameplay and fatalities, but follow from where the story in MK3 went awry, too.

Shang Tsung is a given for this game, and since Shinnok was essentially a replacement for Tsung, he won't be making an appearance. Same thing with Ermac and Reiko. There may be some "after MK3" characters that make it, but I don't think so, and for the most part, I hope not.

Why does every1 hate MK4!!?? lol anyway I do agree with ya for the most part

With that said come onnn Lei Mei i hope you make it!!!

Unfortunately, Li Mei is already one of the girls tied up in The Battle Arena of Shao Kahn along with Kira.

And I do believe this is another UMK3 in 3D with hopefully the addition of Quan Chi, Shinnok, and Tanya.

Khameleon is would be a good DLC.
 
MK4 had a roaster of 15 characters, and I DIDN'T play them all. Its easier to pick from a handful of characters then the whole MK cast. 15 was a nice round numbe I found, enough to have varity and not too many to make you feel theres too much repetition. Any other characters past 15 should be DLC.

Most of us will have character we only play as anyway, so the other characters are just there to fluff the game up.
 
Hmm, I didn't read anywhere where Ed Boon said it was a reboot. He just said "Going back to the roots" meaning back to basics of gameplay, but a jenga might be alittle more meaningful.

What I mean by jenga is to go back to a point in the story and flesh it out and go deeper than the orginal without affecting the end canon(armegeddon), like taking a block out of a jenga tower without knocking over the rest of the blocks.

Hence the reason you see Deagon and Kenshi and Reiko in the background of the pit. My guess is it's MK2-MK3 their gunna jenga.
 
Scorpion, Liu Kang, Baraka, Kitana, Sonya, Jax, Shang Tsung & Kano - I'd be very suprise if these 8 weren't in at least. MK vs DC was supposedly their biggest 10 characters and most of them got in on that game so I'd expect to see them revealed at E3 or possibly later on.

Personally I'm also hoping for Nitara, Cyrax, Sindel, Jade, Frost & Kenshi (or Ermac)!

Most likely Ermac. Kanshi is already in the background of the Pit 2. Oh I definitely want Jade and Nitara as playable characters so I can team them up with my other favorite characters.

So what was the saying "I always hope yall end this way cause it's your destiny" mean, Scorpion or Liu Kang as Boss?

Hmmm.... I really don't know. It would be nice if Scorpion or Liu Kang is the main boss. But you know what, I think both will be sub-bosses or bosses after the main boss. In other words, they might become extra bosses. Just my guess.
 
i reckon that there should be create a character mode with a different variety of weapons with a unique storyline such as:
after the defeat of blaze by taven, a huge power erupted from the pryamid killing lots of mortal kombatants, the mk universe was in chaos and despair, raiden now back to hsi former self after his corruption finds kung lao in a wounded state and on the verge of death, he takes kung lao back to earthrealm where is to be treated by sonya blade who survived armageddon, after his recovery kung lao and raiden set out on a journey to gather the forces light against the upcoming evil that it is arriving, he manages to find sub-zero, kitana, liu kang, johnny cage,shujinko, bo-rai cho and li mei and others. raiden and others are saddened to hear about the death of kenshi at the hands of shao kahn, now allying with quan chi, shang tsung and mileena, and goro, sheeva and kintaro, the forces of light travel to outworld to finish the devestation once and for all. they will meet some allies and foes along the way but one thing is certain, it will not be an easy task.

here r some characters that should return:
. cyrax
. smoke
. noob-saibot
. onaga
. rain
. general reiko
. sindel
. daegon
. taven and others.

some neutral characters could include
.nitara
.ashra
. jade

new fatalities could include
. ripping peoples rib cages out
. mutilation
. gauge peoples eyes
. make people mummified
. rip body parts out

new weapons could be included for each fighter and at least 2 or 3 fighting styles and 2 or 3 fatalities
new features could also be included such as:
. fight to the death
. fatality contest
. weapons match only

Since it's a reboot I'm pretty sure it will have no relation to Armageddon whatsoever. I agree with some of your character choices but I would like to see more of the classic characters like Baraka and Tanya in there as well.
Oh and I think they're going away from the weapon and fighting style system too by the way :grin:

I'm sure somebody will think I'm crazy for this, but I'd like to see them use Kung Lao's ending from Armageddon, where he went back in time and stood in for the original Kung Lao to become the winner of MK, as the jumping off point for this reboot. Acknowledges the old storyline while still allowing them to start fresh a la the newest Star Trek film. And it would explain Kung Lao looking the same since MK champions don't physically age (right?).

Only problem with this is that Taven's ending is said to be the canon ending.
