I honestly do NOT want the final boss to be Liu Kang, it would just be a bit anti-climatic imo, but we'll see who it is, I guess.

I'm kind of hoping that it's either some sort of new character, or if it's going to be the "same-old same-old" with someone like Shao Kahn or Blaze, something like that. Liu Kang is a bit too much of a "main character" of the series than to be an actual final boss tbh.
 
As much as I like Reiko, if he would be the boss or something, NO MILEENA.

First because I dislike her ( :laugh: ). That wouldn't make me dislike the game if she was, because the game is beautiful.

Second because I wouldn't like any sort of tag.

Also, if it was deadly alliance style, like, battle Mileena and Reiko then (or the contrary), wouldn't be so cool for a boss fight.

If it was Reiko, I wanted him to betray Mileena, kill her, and then we should beat an overpowered Reiko with his moves and Shao Kahn copycats (like MK:A).

But he needed to be overpowered, not on cheap moves (like Kahn!), but a skilled fighter (like Shang Tsung on MK9).

Anyway, I really have no idea who would be the boss.

While I dont agree on the Mileena hate :twisted: ,lol. I agree with the way you explained a boss like Reiko should be. Shinnok was the easiest MK boss, he played like every other humanoid character. Shao Khan is cheap always was and his moves pack a punch, he is known for that. A boss like Reiko should be faster, combo heavy, and stronger. I don't think as overpowered as player does a 12 hit combo and takes 30%, Reiko does a 12 and 60% is gone, but something in that area.
 
Ed Boon said the final boss is a surprise returning character. Quan Chi being the final boss would not be a surprise since he has been a final boss before and him turning his back on Shinnok would not be a surprise since we knew that it can happen going by his MK4 ending.

Did he emphasis on the returning, MK9 or MK1-A options?

Was just about to say this. Boon has made it clear it is a returning character.
 
I picked Liu Kang for the lol's, but a 3 character poll is weak, IMO.


Anyways, I honestly would like to see Shang Tsung as the unplayable boss, just for the SOLE reason that they could make him a little bit harder and the AI wouldn't be as limited with him morphing into different characters, as if he were a playable character.
With 3 variations in MKX, Shang morphing into any of the 3 variations of that character would keep you on your toes, as a boss fight, IMO.

I just realized that MK9 took the Sindel scene and after straight all the way to what we know about MKX so far from Sailor Moon. If you remember the story of MK9 and some of MKX's info, tell me if you see a match (whether exact or very similar because one of these definitely isn't similar).

-The Sailors face off against the DD girls.
-Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter got killed easily.
-Mars decided to fight them alone and sacrifices herself in the process of defeating them.
-Sailor Moon arrives to surrender to Queen Beryl.
-Sailor Moon is forced to fight Tuxedo Mask, who dies in the process.
-Sailor Moon goes to Queen Beryl and gain the power of Princess Serenity and destroys Queen Beryl.
-At the end of the day, the dead return to life.

-2 new Antagonists appear directly after
-Queen Beryl's power is still in someone else.
-Chibi Moon, a descendant of Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask, arrives.

Notice any similarities? (Sorry if it was off topic)

Sailor Saturn confirmed.
 
I've already said Kuai Liang was my guess but now I'm adding Noob.
Kuai or Noob, one of them is the boss.
 
I really doubt it's Quan Chi. I don't think NRS would reveal a character so early and then go "SURPRISE! He's actually the boss!"

Shinnok seems the most likely boss just based on MK9's ending, to me, but that's not necessarily determinative.

Liu Kang? I don't know. Clearly bringing him back in general is within the realm of possibility, and he would be the most surprising.
