Official Mortal Kombat Website Re-Launches Later Today

How so? I see no hints to any character.

Well, Scorpion and Sub-Zero are both sworn enemies, as is Raiden and Shao Kahn. Mileena, and... Liu Kang? It doesn't add up. Plus the pattern of the characters. Bad, good, bad good, bad good. It definitely must be Kitana. And just for kicks, kitana in her MK9 outfits has a headband that works with the silhouette.

That shadow doesn't go with her hair, though. Her hair is quite high and that silhouette would make it look more like a low ponytail if it were her.
 
It still seems to be the most logical flit though. Liu Kang would be nice, but I think it's more wishful thinking than anything else. Kitana seems to be the most realistic choice.
 
I can see that little sliver of red that someone in another thread was talking about and it does look like a headband. I would rule out Kitana just by the lack of height in the hair and the manly face. Liu Kang seems like the right choice, or possibly Nightwolf, like someone else suggested.
 
Fact: It is Liu Kang.

Check out Night Wolf's head compared to the shadow. There's a random strand just popping off the top. It's either Liu Kang or someone we don't know. Besides, those that think it's Kitana... that jaw is way too square. Look at Kitana's face shape and tell me it matches the shape of that head. It doesn't.

I think Sub-Zero's bio is extremely confusing. First it says Scorpion killed him and so he become Noob Saibot and his brother became Sub-Zero. This is all fine but then it says Sub-Zero has knowledge of the afterlife, but that can't be his brother it has to be Noob. And there's your problem! Which of them is the actual character? The developers said he's old Sub-Zero, and he does seem pretty bent on destruction, but if so where the hell did Noob and young Sub go!? xD
 
It's Stryker, obviously. That's not a headband, it's a backwards police visor. :biggrin:
 
It absolutely must be Liu Kang, he's the most integral character of the entire franchise. Storywise, that is. He won the first ever MK tournament! You can't just let that slide! Come on!! :-P

What confused the hell out of me, is that all these events in his bio, point to this stuff happening BEFORE the first tournament.
Kind of makes it seem like he was killed before MK 1 began, and is now resurrected.
It also seems to approve the notion of Noob Saibot, then disprove it at the same time, when it says: "Now he emerges with untold secrets of the afterlife propelling him fearlessly into the bloodiest battles."

How is he dead and back as Sub-Zero, if he was dead and back as Noob Saibot?
He died twice?

WTF???

That's an Asian dude's facial structure and that's just how he parts his hair. Her hair is a lot higher/longer than that, too. Kitana has already been revealed, so Liu fits since there are rumors of a new character to be revealed as well.

Oh and both Sub and Scorpion are essentially rival clan members, so they're good and bad at the same time. Not to mention that that's a silly argument to begin with.

That's Liu.

Sliver of red? Think what you want, but I'm fairly confident that it's Kitana.

Yeah, just look to the left and you will see the sliver of red that resembles a headband.

Here ya go, I lightened up the picture so you can see it:

The more I keep looking at the silhouette, I keep picturing Liu Kang more and more. Logically, it should be Kitana but image-wise, it just doesn't look like her anymore.

I really think you're stretching with that "sliver of red". We can all debate a silhouette all we want, but the fact to the matter is that we don't know who it is, so there's no real point in exclaiming that it IS Liu Kang. It seems alot more logical for it to be Kitana. It's not even necessary that it's a face shot, so we can't really talk about 'angles' when it's a silhouette of something we don't even know.

lol, I never said it is Liu Kang...I actually said it could be him or possibly Nightwolf, like someone else suggested.

Again, because of the lack of hair height (and manly looking face outline, imo), I am personally ruling out Kitana, and I think that person in the other thread was correct when saying that shadow there is a headband.
 
I am 99.9% sure its Liu Kang, it cant be kitana, this is a male face structure. The only thing that is bothering me is the bandana, in MK 1 Liu didn't wear one because he wasen't a champion yet. He first got it in MK II after Shang Tsung's defeat (Like Ryu is SF he got his bandana in SF II after becoming the champion by defeating sagat).

I just don't understand how everyone can talk about facial structure, you're relying on the edge of a silhouette. Who's to say that's even a face looking to the right? Mileena's isn't. Perhaps that thing on the right of the silhouette going up to where the hair part looks is actually an arm up to it's elbow? Maybe it's Kitana holding fans up? There's really way too many factors to rule in to conclude it's Liu Kang at all. At this point, we don't know. And if we knew, then it wouldn't be an unrevealed character.
