I actually have my own theory. I bet he dies at the end of chapter 1. I think the reason he seems like 'The same old Raiden' and is even wearing a costume so similar to his MK9 counterpart is that he's only going to be alive in the very beginning of story mode. I think he'll be the first playable character, and that his chapter will end with his death. Or his death will happen somewhere before the first major leap forward in time. The reason for this theory is that everybody else (except Scorpion, but he never changes) has these major changes in their stories, or look older or different somehow. I think if Raiden lived long enough to go through anything in this game, it would reflect in his main costume. This is just a theory of course, based on nothing but observations.
Backup theory: Raiden will ascend to Elder God status before the first major time-leap. If they announce Fujin, I'll feel even more confident that Raiden's going to die or move on early in the story.
