No idea if that's what they'll call it since the last one was just Mortal Kombat, but I thought that we should have a new thread for this.

This was posted at the Xbox One Reddit.

Also, the 24 slots shown in the demo(s) is merely a placeholder. No number of characters are confirmed so far.

 

[TX85]

So there may be more than 24 characters?,hmmmmm

I think 24 is the most it will launch with, with the number actually being less. 2 of those slots could be random select like in previous entries

As for the baddy, they already had Liu Kang go dark with the Zombie version. I think Kung Lao as the big bad could be an interesting twist

likely less. Considering every character will have 3 variations, thats at most 72 different movesets to program if we are to assume 24 is their max. Thats a lot.

Ed Boon has more or less hinted that, but it could be less.

 

[Benstamania]

COULD be less.. but maybe since a second studio is handling old gen port.. Maybe the next gen version will have more?

I dunno about you guys but I would consider Motaro as a boss a surprise, I know hes a boss in MK3, but the surprise would be seeing him done properly in a 3d MK game for once

 

[TX85]

I like Motaro but not sure I'd want him back as the main boss for this game

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Motaro as the main boss? After SHAO KAHN and teasing of Shinnok ? Don't see that happening.

 

[Benstamania]

Two or Four legged Motaro? lol

 

[Benstamania]

Motaro as the main boss? After SHAO KAHN? Don't see that happening.

Yeah I agree. He could easily be the sub boss.. I'd be cool with that.

 

[DigificWriter]

I don't see Motaro as the main villain fitting the definition of 'surprising', but YMMV.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Motaro would be awesome as a sub-boss.

 

[Sparta*]

you guys honestly wouldnt be surprised to see a huge fully 3d 4-legged Motaro? I would be very surprised. I know its a long shot, I just think it'd be cool. I guess he did die in MK9 though lol

anyone watching that live stream? they showed off torr's fatality

 

[X Knight]

Batman will be the surprise boss!!

Because.......he is the g******n Batman!!

 

[BradenPickering]

I'd be down with Motaro returning, but he'd probably fit better as a sub-boss, with maybe Sindel being the final? Just thinking outloud here.

 

[bored]

It'll be the guy who pops out and shouts "Toasty!". He's waited so long for his time.

either him or playable ed boon's eyebrows t:

watching the latest video seems like the X-rays still do next to nothing for damage, they need to give people incentive to save meter and use the X-rays, they really should do like 40% damage instead of 25-30% and they shouldnt scale so hard in combos

I think they did a disservice to Motaro in MK3. To me, he was always the hardest boss of the MK games. Whenever I reached him in MK3, I knew that I was in for a freaking big (though unfair) battle. Shao Kahn was no problem after Motaro. Then, in MK9 Raiden just killed him in the background. Come on!

I'd be really happy if he returned. Four legged centaur! Not cheap minotaur. And I'm bet the main villain of the story will be one of the old heroes. That's what could be surprising.

really? Motaro was tough, but I thought he was a breeze compared to Shao Kahn, i'd always get to shao kahn then just quit after like 5 tries cause I could never beat that SOB lol but I could take out Motaro after a few tries (jade and sheeva were my go-to's for taking out Motaro cause they had the longest combos)

I think they showed him dying in MK9 cause they were sick of fans asking for his return when they said multiple times the 4 legs wont work with their system lol I think it was a "see, hes dead now, stop asking for him to be in the next game" sorta thing lol

Ok, I just got back from work, and I don't see anyone talking about the new MKX footage, which I missed. What gives? Was is not that great?

I still have the stream open so i've been watching it, they didnt show too much new stuff

they did show Torr's fatality (little dude jumps on your face, stabs you in the eyes, flips over you while cutting you from eyes all the way down the middle, then Torr tosses your halves on the ground) lol

they showed D'vorah's win pose when she doesnt do a fatality

besides that it was just some more standard matches from what I can see (again I dont have volume though so I dont know what they are saying) lol

 

[Nathan]

I'm watching the fights on youtube right now. It really isn't much new. You don't even have Boon or anyone talk, giving us some information. It's just a regular match.
