I don't think it's IMPOSSIBLE we could get more down the road... in a perfect word, but it's too early to tell right now. They're talking a lot about how they expect this game to have a longer life than any of their games before, but I feel like they said the same thing about MKX in the leadup to that game tbh, so who knows? *Shrug*
Street Fighter V had a lot of flaws, but one thing I love about that game was we got 3 years worth of full DLC lineups that added 18 characters and counting to the game. Assuming these 9 are the plan for 2019 (If we only got 1 a month after April, that would still take us beyond the end of the year)... I'd LOVE to learn we were getting another lineup in 2020. But it's way too early to predict that. I doubt if NRS has even made that decision yet.
I have my fingers crossed, because there are so many missed opportunities.

Like Noob not giving a fuck about Scorpion.

...Or introducing that Smoke is an Enenra, and that his Enenra side has taken over his revenant form and then not rolling that monster out.
But yeah, that's just me being bitter Smoke isn't in.

I think it would be in their best interest to.
But unfortunately I'm sure Injustice 3 is going to demand their full attention in the near future. But I really wish they could support MK11 a little bit longer- even with small things like new skins and whatnot, it annoyed me that skins and stuff kept being added to the mobile version of MKX and yet nothing to the console. Though I understand, they want people to play it but meh.
I feel like MKX in general could've had a much longer life cycle.
I just looked Street Fighter V up and its planned to get DLC characters through 2020. Whoa

He looks like Alien (who was in the game). Why wasn't he like this in the game?
You would think though to play devil's advocate, that if it were 2 packs of 3 in an overall pack that they would specify as such. Really makes me lean towards 6 as the first and then maybe two packs of lesser numbers afterward.

That would be my hope. I'm still crossing my fingers right now, but man - This initial load out doesn't have me thrilled, but I can deal with it. I like the deep cuts (Sheeva, Fujin) and the guests like Spawn, Ash...But Joker and Terminator don't thrill me.
I'd have loved to see Havik, Reiko, Mileena ( Or some clone of her, a more feral version), Sareena, Smoke...
My hope is that there will be 12 total, and the last three are Cyrax, Sektor and Smoke with Smoke being able to be either Human, Enenra, or Cyber via gear/ skins.

I was thinking he looked more like Venom
Why are all of Sindel's dialogues so flirty and sexually suggestive?
Have they turned her into the Lwaxana Troi of MK?
Sindels clealy Elvira, obviously
Gotta say while I'm not excited for Fujin and Nightwolf, I do like these new directions the intros are taking their characters.
Fujin is a goofball and Nightwolf is a title for a man with a dark past.

I'm still liking the combination of Reiko/LiMei/Sareena/Takeda. Such a sexy foursome and would all be great additions.
Whichever 3 of those 4, I'd be happy. Ideally I'd sit Takeda out until MK12, but I have a soft spot for him.
They'll be gravy if they do indeed make it in.
No one has really discussed it yet but Nightwolf's dialogues seemed to drop some major new details on his backstory that one would call retcons:
Apparently "Nightwolf" is a title/role that he inherited and he is the latest in a long line of them, and some of the previous Nightwolfs had interactions with Outworld. The name of his tribe/nation is the Matoka which I don't think has been revealed before. But the juiciest thing here is his dialogues with Kabal and Kano, which seem to imply Nightwolf was a member of or at least associate of the Black Dragon before becoming the Nightwolf, and Kabal might also be from the same tribe.

Doesn't surprise me. MK3 Nightwolf always gave me "badass biker" dude vibe. Like he'd fit right in with that black dragon bar arena in MK11.
I also love that Nightwolf/Kabal connection.

Well,both of them are aliens.
Fujin - awesome addition should’ve been in MKX whilst I am not a massive fan I know a lot of people wanted him so I am glad he finally made a game.
Sindel - she’s a pretty good addition again not really a fan but I understand we have to have a few females in so I guess she’s alright
Nightwolf - meh should’ve been smoke, he’s such a better character and the enenra angle is a massive missed opportunity guess we’ll have to wait another 4 years to see him if he even gets a run then!
Sheeva - she is the same class of undesireables as jacqui and dvorah just a lame Goro/Kintaro rip off never liked her in the Klassics and MK11 won’t be any different.
Guests - all guests suck in my opinion and shouldn’t be in the game but they are a forgone conclusion in MK games now so I’ll just have to live with it.
Hopefully the skins they release are cool so I haven’t completely wasted my money on the Kombat pack!
Fingers crosses for a chameleon type character in the future to bring in some male ninja representation which this game sorely needs!
I just thought of this because my wife, who plays the mobile game, was asking who these characters were (she's a casual, obviously). If you include the DLC that we are definitely getting, and not the characters that were mentioned in the leak and still rumored as of now, that brings the mobile character count to 46 (53 if you include the guests) and one hell of an impressive roster for a mobile game.
I hope the DLC characters, specifically the MK characters, receive a few bonus skins/outfits too. Always bothered me how they never got alternate costumes in past games.

If they did it on Injustice 2 they will certainly do in Mortal Kombat 11.
Anyone else hoping nightwolf is young? He’d be way more badass if he was a young Native American Apache.
I’m over him being the old wise Native American.
... or both works
Sidebar-
With the handling of the males in this game, something tells me that Nightwolf and Fujin are going to be very nice to look at.
This pleases me.

Yes, they should be just as complete as base roster characters. Alternates should be part of their package.
... here's your Subzero, now plain zero.
I approve of these DLC character choices, especially Nightwolf.

Me too!!! Even now I’m hoping Reiko is in one of the packs! Especially as Kotal and Skarlet are in.
Is there any Reiko related Dialogue??
