XL is a silly name, but im pretty hyped nonetheless. I actually kinda like the cosplay skins XD
I think there is still hope for a KP3 providing KP2 sells well

Something tells me this is the last thing Netherrealm is going to do with MKX before ending its game cycle (and maybe announce/work on Injustice 2 before year's end). Well, hopefully fix the netkode, but that's debatable.

HVS developer heads?

Same here.
I expect that this will be the last thing, but I suspect that they'll announce Injustice 2 (or whatever project is next) by around E3.
As for KP2, I see it like AC that comes with a car.
It's an option and I don't have to use / get it.
Tri-Borg and The Pit.
The Pit has my hyped as fvck.
Also, I'm not 100% sure, but I see Baraka's head at the bottom of The Pit, along with the other developer heads. :laugh:
Glad that they added that detail and revamped the MK1 Pit Fatality to be that much more brutal / comical.
The arm falling down after Sub-Zero hit the spikes and slapping him on the back had me laughing.

There is a high chance I will trade in my original MKX for this due to bad internet at my house.
Also, when Kitana does the uppercut in the Pit Fatality, the fans better be visible!!! It shouldn't be like in MK9 where the fans disappear during her uppercut in the Pit Fatality.

So the PC crowd gets the shaft yet again._._. wow WB just wow. I own both Xbox one and ps4 versions of the game yet hearing this news pisses me off. Why did they even release it on pc in the first place? It's just like Nrs and WB is cut ties with their current game and move on to the next project and pretend nothing happened. Congrats WB you'll never sell a game on pc again.
As far as the kompl._._ I mean XL edtion goes the skins on cassie and jacqui look dumb (why are they scorpion and subzero?) other than that the pit looks cool (even though it's a copy of mk9s pit ). If they manage to get ggpo running by the games release (i doubt it but we'll see) than this will be a really good value for those who haven't picked up the game yet.

I really hope this will be the last game because I'll be so pissed if they go do that Street Fighter 4 route after getting this!!!
Li Mei, Sareena, and JADE better be in MK11 if MKX ends here too!

I agree and disagree with this.
It looks like the MK9 concept art for the upper part of the Pit, as for the lower part of the pit & spikes, no.
The spike columns leading to the bottom (where Sub-Zero gets his arm ripped off in the trailer) and the Pit Bottom look different to me, especially now that the MKX Pit brought back the heads impaled on them.

Mad Max Erron Black! It's all I ever wanted!
Hopefully none of the content is exclusive to XL.
And this means we're getting KP2 before March, so either we get all the characters at once or one each week of February. Good news either way.

Agreed.
It would suck royal ass to have to get XL in order to get something like The Pit, Tri-Borg, or the Apocalypse costumes for Takeda, D'Vorah and Erron Black.
I'm not re-buying MKX, just for a few of those things that I want.
Hopefully MK XL = MK9 Komplete.

Nothing will be exclusive to the XL edition. The Cosplay skins are a pre-order bonus, but they will end up in the XB1/PS4 stores at some point. I'm really not a fan of 'lol funny but not MK' skins like those, though. Same reason I really wouldn't want those stupid Brazil ones in my game.
Looking forward to seeing all of those skins properly, though. I'm keen to see if that is indeed a Blue Steel-type skin for Ermac - as it seems to be - and whether Reptile will also get one.
The main disappointment for me is the fact that NRS apparently cannot be bothered to make any alt. skins for DLC characters, and so even though Tremor and Tanya are featured in the video they don't have new skins. I was going to buy Tremor if he was getting an UMK3 skin (as Boon hinted at... surprise, surprise) but if that's not happening then I won't.

I kinda like the cosplay pack thing. It's a fun idea.
Seeing Leatherface with the iconic lipstick mask from the original excites me a bit. May actually use him for that reason alone.
I'm assuming "Chrome" is just one of the cosplay outfits for the girls.
Queen Alien Fatality was incredibly badass.
But uh.... What's the deal? People who bought the original game will continue to pay more and more money for all this new content while the slackers get it all in one easy payment?

The new characters were in need of extra costumes. The cosplay is so uninspired, and doesn't help that it's based on the awful MKX rendition of the klassic costumes.

it's strange cause NRS actually made an alt skin for Zod in Injustice

Probably.
My guess is MKXL = MK9 Komplete Edition:
- $30 for KP2
- Individual DLC for sale (characters, costumes, etc, etc, etc)
- The Pit patched in, in 1 of the 4 upcoming patches for the game
- MKXL with all 9 DLC characters and everything included for $60 (or more).
