While MK11 will almost be out (even when Injustice 2 is already released), I hope NRS will give an MK11 TOWER!!! That tower should hint who will be present in the next game whether characters will be playable or not. Just as long as they will be in the MK11 story mode. In the tower, it should show who is alive from the MKX story mode and comics!
Here is how I'd want it to go from top being last fights to the bottom being the first fights.
- Dark Raiden
** Blue Steel costume Sub-Zero but all black while using no variation, hinting Noob Saibot's return.
- Dark Emperor Liu Kang
** Klassic (MK2) costume Kitana but green and black while using the Mournful Variation, hinting Jade's return.
- Dark Empress Kitana
* Revenant Sindel
- Revenant Kung Lao
* Rain
- Tanya
- Goro
- Tremor
- Scorpion
- Ermac
- D'Vorah
- Kotal Kahn
- Kenshi
- Sub-Zero
- Kano
- Sonya
- Johnny Cage
- Jax
- Ferra/Torr
- Erron Black
- Kung Jin
- Takeda
- Cassie Cage
- Jacqui Briggs
- Reptile
- Others who have survived MKX (story mode and comics) and who might also be DLC in the future of MKX.
* = Characters who are currently NPCs who can be fought in the MKX story mode.
** = Secret fights that can be unlocked when certain conditions are met. (Meeting certain conditions while fighting Dark Empress Kitana will allow the player to fight against Klassic Kitana afterwards and the same can be done when fighting against Liu Kang so the player can fight against Cold Steel Sub-Zero afterwards.)
I just want to make it clear that this MK11 tower should be in MKX before MK11 comes out. It doesn't necessarily mean that the characters in the tower will be totally present nor playable in MK11 but the characters in the tower are characters who are all playable in MKX (or at least fight able with their own movesets) and who have survived the MKX story and comics (or the whereabouts of certain characters, such as Noob, are currently considered "unknown" and not "deceased"). I added the hints for Jade and Noob Saibot because Kitana can fight like Jade and Noob Saibot was the original Sub-Zero before. I was thinking of adding Goro as Sheeva but it would not workout at all. Lol
Anyone under Scorpion can be in any order.
I hope NRS does do this, especially about hinting the return of Jade.
