I have no faith in any of this.

I hope this is the leak that gets the major leakers outted from NRS and there are slight differences to what I see here.

I heard that they are giving select few people slightly wrong information to check who is leaking stuff. I hope this is the one of those.

Having said that, this roster looks decent and very believable. I am not too excited for the new characters, but I will hold my tongue until I see them. Geras blew me away there is no reason the other new ones won't. Kollektor, the way you describe him, I hope to be all of the robots put together in a grotesque version of Triborg. If what you said is true about the Kollektor I would hazard a guess we will get some missiles, bombs, nets, and teleporting uppercuts from him.

Noob, Mileena, Shang all sound like good fillers to the steam leak we got earlier.

Also, what is the source here?

if Shinnok was the son of kronika then why does she explain to him what her power is . shouldnt he know ?

Fake. It has already been revealed that "Cet" is Geras.

EDIT: I was sorely mistaken. lol

Actually “TER” was Geras. I hope this isn’t true though. Two Briggs in the game would suck. One would be bad enough. Mileena needs to sit out too. Glad to hear Kotal has legs though, ha!

The quality of the roster takes an atrocious nose dive after Kung Lao and before Kitana. All that needs to be axed.

It just kind of occurred to me... What if Kitana and Johnny are the unlockables for some reason and that is why there are no base roster related achievements for them or Kahn in the achievements leak?

If true, I don't mind having Shinnok again (actually having him as a normal playable characters sounds nice) but Mileena as an unlockable? That doesn't convince me.

Even without legs Kotal is still better off than Shinnok at the moment, lol

Why doesnt netherrealm take advantage of the assets they already have. No one cares forbthese new characters. They have great characters that they could build upon. It was not sonya blade that made mk great, it was the characters like scorpion, subzero, reptile, raiden liu kang, etc.

Cassie and sonya in the game is too much. The same for Jax and jacqui. I would of rather seen old characters fleshed out more, like kai or sareenA.

They have great characters that people are already interested in ; charactera like Havik and taven chameleon nightwolf. Id like to see even darrius, jarek and dairou before cassie and jacqui...

Havik should be in the forefront of this game. Instead we get uninspired new characters...

Bring back the old writers!

Hm... interesting roster. Least favorites are Johnny and Jacqui/Jax. I am glad to see Mileena because i think from all the female "ninjas" she is the most interesting one. But i am missing Reptile and maybe Smoke... hope they make it as DLC. If the roster is true then i am really curios to see The Kollector in action :D

Its not logical to me. If Kronika is Shinnoks mother, than she's an elder goddess too. Why would she want him to win armageddon? Shinnok wants to destroy all the elder gods, including her mother as well... And bring back the one being.?!

This story is getting more complicated game by game. But I feel stink in this leak tbh.

Shinnoks decapitated head is in the background of one of the stages. I don’t believe he will be in the roster. It would be pretty stupid playing as him in that stage with his cut off head in the background.

Assuming it is fake until there is solid proof otherwise. A lot of this is probably safe guesses by now bust aside from that, no dice

Could be, but I'd think they'd wait longer to confirm Johnny in that case instead of teasing his inclusion.

I'm guessing someone put the brakes on that trophy release after they realized people were taking notice, so it's simply incomplete.

BS

Oh right, I forgot. lol

Well damn it. I don't like this roster. I want Rain, not Jax!

Don't believe it either simply because of Shinnok's head being in the background of one of the arenas. It's easy to come up with most of the roster based on the steam leak. I don't think Shang would be an unlockable character though, especially if he's got the movie actor's face scanned, that just seems like something they'd want to show off ahead of time to hype people up and not wait for them to find as an unlockable. Now a days secret unlocks don't make sense anyway, streamers always get the game early and reviewers could spoil it as well. I know that guy from NRS said there would be secret characters but he never said playable, he could have meant people in backgrounds etc.

Shang as a hidden Kharacter is high likely. But Shinnok also playable... I have my doubts about this. Perhaps as a younger version of hinself before Raiden killed him. The idea of the Kollector is something i would really enjoy to play. So one part of is hoping that this leak is true.

All 5 female ninjas & only 3 male ninjas?

... I never thought I would see the day.

B.S...Lies, Lies and nothing but Lies.

@barakall GIVE US YOUR SOURCE! OR WE WILL TAKE YOUR SOUL!

I've seen variations of the Kollector/Cetrion rumour doing the rounds for a while now, but I don't believe this roster, and I do think Rain will be playable.

In the other hand tho, Johnny Cage is rumoured to be playable, yet he is seen as a background characters in a stage. Jax the same.

Know this, Shinnok might return too among the playables. Maybe they just change some elements in the arena, when playing as one of its stage-parts characters. Just like in the old games, when u play as Shao Kahn, he is not sitting on his throne in Shao Kahns arena. Same goes with Shang and Goro.

The stages mean nothing as they have changed background characters in shao khan arena, goros lair, and shang tsungs stage. However, this Baraka11 guy has posted 7 leaked rosters and everytime a new fighter would get released that wasnt in his original roster, he would replace someone.... he has done this 7 times... Should get banned just for spreading false information for attention. I thought shinnok might be playable because Kronika seemed to take interest in reviving him in the little story trailer plus he has special moves in the games tower. They could easily change the head in the background and it would be a cool roster setup but its highly unlikely. Jax doesnt seem to be in either.
