The four characters that should return in MK8 imo. (MK8, should be taken place at least 10 years further into the future),
Sub Zero
Subzero should become less an ice king and more a sinister ice ninja. I've read some posts where noob and zero should be combined to create a darker ninja but with the icey skills. I think this is an excellent idea. No more crazy helmets or wooly outfits. Maybe something went wrong when Sub helped Noob, and old hatreds resurface. the hunt for scorpion is opened yet again, but the reason unknown.
Scorpion.
Scorpion is scorpion so no changes here. He will be in MK8 to find his son. "quan chi told me enough, he said you killed my father" "no. Luke i'm your father" The son of scorpion will be a young sorcerer, who is looking for scorpion for his own reasons. (btw Quan chi, dead)
Kung Lao
Lui kang finally ascended to another plane, kung lao will be the only Shaolin Monk left, to battle in mortal kombat. It is kung lao who aids shang tsung in his quest for good. Although Kung does not believe the intentions of the old sorcerer, he believes that friends should be kept close and enemies even closer.
Shang Tsung,
maybe it was the armageddon, maybe it was the death of liu kang, maybe he's getting old... again, but Shang Tsung is not the man he once was. Tired of the endless power game, he decides to seek redemption. Abondoning his soul stealing abilities, but keeping his shapeshifting skills, he turns to the other side. Gone cold turkey on his soul stealing abilities, he often relaps to the older man he was and he thinks that he will not have a lot of time in the realm left but in the little time he has left he tries to atone for the things he had done.
Raiden, Lui Kang, Johnny Cage, Quan Chi are dead for sure. A new thundergod will rise though who? not a clue. Qun Chi died later on but had an apprentice, Johnny, well he died. And it is time for lui kang to move on. (although i believe they will all return in the Next gen MK if not MK8 then in the "MK all fighters included version"
what you think?
