Yh they made Mileena ;)

She looks beautiful! I'm hoping they reveal her entire face soon though. Like during her kiss of death fatality, which I'm sure she'll have again. I wouldn't mind if her alternate had a mask, infact I kinda hope it does. This outfit seems more princess to me than assassin. I think her alternate should tip the scale the other way.

Her moves look really good, and I love the fan combos she does. She seems to have really good reach as far as gameplay since a lot of her moves involve her fans. Her X-Ray is badass! It's almost like a fatality in itself lol.

Her hair looked wonky at first, but I think it looks fine now. The only real problem I had was the design of her fans. But they've grown on me and I really like them. Nothing to complain about here, but I do hope they release some new Kitana content soon...

@Mileenaownz12345

Hehe yeah Mileena looks pretty epic as well. In fact I think this is the best the females have ever looked, I'm hoping we get more images of Jade soon.

@skyboy
I completely agree! Her x-ray is so badass!
I really hope they release her story vignette soon, that is if they release it before the game is out.

btw does anyone know where I can get high-res screens of Kitana. I've seen a few but for some reason can only find the one where she is doing the fan lift, I know theres more out there!

Theres one of her fighting Mileena. They had the download link at TRMK, and if you have the Mortal Kombat Widget, its there too. I tried to upload it on youtube but it didnt work.. :[

Kitana has been my favorite Lady of MK since she first debuted.
I wasn't fond of her implementation in DA or Unchained, as I felt they were too far removed from her normal skillset.
I *can't wait* to play as Kitana in MK9!
I actually love her new look- I think it's very befitting of an Edenian Princess.
If Rain isn't in the game at the start, Kitana will definitely be my first pick.

From what I've seen of her gameplay thus far for MK2011, I'm super hyped to play with her! I love how much she uses her fans in the combos and the sound effect that goes with it just makes her combos extra awesome. I'm also very glad they brought back The Pretty Kick special move and also updated the Square Wave Punch, i.e. modified it.

Her in-game voice is superb and I love her intro line as well as the animation.

I wish her costume wasn't as revealing, but oh well... Hopefully her alternate will be more covered and I'm also excited about the update of her classic costume. Her model though, no complaints at all, 100% beautiful.

So yeah, here's another MK fan looking forward to MK2011 and looking forward to kick some a$$ with Kitana.

Kitana looks awesome. Best she has ever looked. There are a few minor details I would change. Her loin cloth should be front and back and it should be longer. Her heels should be higher. The criss cross lace up on her top should not lace all the way up, it should only be the bottom two X's. But still easily the best incarnation Kitana has ever gotten. I have been waiting for this look for her for a long time. I cant believe how awful she looked in MKDC, she definitely needed some redemption after that game.

I love the fucking hair. I always wanted the poof hairstyle for Kitana. The tiara is perfect. Im sure the animation will be fixed before the game is released. Look how much better it looks in the Kitana vs Mileena widget video compared to the early PAX videos. They are definitely working on her hair, so Im not worried about that anymore.

Her fighting style is perfect. I am excited to see what else she can do. She is very graceful and agile, perfect for Kitana. I love all the fan combos. I just hope she has the teleport as a normal move, and its not just in her xray. The xray is badass, fatility material, but I guess it works. Her throws are perfect also, very fitting for Kitana. Her fighting stance is also perfect.

Her fans are growing on her, I would like to see more blades, and they should be much thinner. I liked the designs on the MKDA fans though.

Another little flaw I have noticed with all the females. Has anyone noticed how large their hands and feet are? I hope NRS realizes how big the female's hands and feet look and fix them.

I cant wait to see Sindel and Jade gameplay though. Hopefully we will see some on Tuesday.

@wdm6789



Yes i thought i was the only one who noticed how big their hands are not soo much the feet though, But i notice it when i first saw Mileena's fatality when she put her hand on Kung lao's head i was like woah man hands and then from there i noticed it on kitana,Sonya,Sindel and it bugs me.

Their feet all look big too. Their bodies are good. I would like to see a little variation on their body styles, but their feet and hands are too big though.

My thoughts on Kitana:

Her look is not her best, it's also one of my least favorites. I prefer her MKDA alternate. The model is great, but like all the females, she is really skinny at the knee joint.

Her stance is so freaking awkward. It needs to be changed.

I'll play as her for a decent amount of time because she looks fun, but she won't be my main female. That spot is reserved for Tanya.

The "Tia Carrere in a Bridesmaid's Dress" look? Really?!
That was *by far* my least favorite look for her.
I guess it takes Diff'rent Strokes, though

As for Kitana's alternate, if its more ninja then she should remain masked, but if its even more regal than her current one, I wouldnt mind her being unmasked. If her alternate is more ninja leotard style, I would like to see something similar to her MK Shaolin Monks costume and her MKDA purple costume, except blue. I also want to see some kind of belt with a long flowey ribbon.

That's my least favorite Kitana design too. I'm hoping they go more ninja with her alternate and stay away from this look. She does look like a ninja bride'smaid lol. There's nothing redeeming about her DA outfit, but that's my opinion

I think that costume looks good here. It looks way better blue. I always liked that costume, I just hated that it was purple. I would like to see an update to this as her alternate, blue of course, and masked.

Something like this would be cool too.



Less bondage though and lose the laces and spikes on the boots. That is how I would like to see Kitana's heels though, not spikes, but the height and shape is perfect.

MK2011 tops both Kitana and Mileena lists for appearance. Really impressed

That's a little... S&M for my tastes, but I do really like the fans quite a bit.
I like them better than any fans she's had since MKGold... maybe better than any of them. Add the fan fabric design from that Bridesmaid look, and you'd have my favorite fans yet!
I just don't like her newer fans... as someone else on here said,
it just looks like she glued knives onto them.
I liked them better when they were "just" razor-tipped
EDIT: OOH! I wonder if her different outfits will have different fans? That would be pretty awesome, in my book!

That would be awesome! I didn't even think of that!

I actually really like her fans in this game, these along with the fans from DA are my favorite though I prefer MK9's more due to their larger scale.

I myself was never a big fan of her unmasked purple costume from DA(though her blue assassin attire from that game is my 2nd favorite Kitana model) but I do agree it looks nicer blue.
I didn't really think about her removing her mask during her kiss of death fatality or during cutscenes but that would be pretty cool.

She looks perfect in her primary attire, can't wait to see her alternate hopefully it's just as good!

Hey, I'm not alone! I always hear people saying they prefer her DA fans, but I like these more too. And yes, her purple costume looks WAY better blue, I will admit...

This is the most happy I've been about Kitana's appearance in a game. I'm loving almost everything about her so far. My three small grips are as follows:

HAIR: Loving the hair long but as people stated, keep working on the animations, there has been improvement, but it's not perfected. I think the upcoming footage of her at EVO will be a good indication of how it may end being like in the final version.

ALT COSTUME: I'm all for Kitana having an unmasked costume as her alt under one condition. The MK team makes her face look as good as the rest of her. I'm fearful that unmasked she'll have the body of a godess and the face of a god.

FATALITIES: I know this is all about nostalgia, so I'm totally expecting it ... but I really don't want her to have the kiss of death fatality. She has one of the most unique weapons in a fighting game and they continue to reuse the same old fatalities.

Kitana in this new MK looks spectacular!
I love everything about her new look.

The only thing that still sorta bothers me is the physics of her hair in battle. However, NRS have really improved it sincethe first time we saw her. I hope that improvement continues before game launch.

Her special moves have been recreated with style, I'm really impressed. It's like everything is the same but different at the same time.

I hope she's given the huge role she deserves in story mode. I really want her to shine like never before.

I know where you're coming from, it would just be weird if she didn't have that fatality. It's her signature fatality, she's had it in every game she's been in, it's pretty much a staple to her character. But I wouldn't mind seeing them do something different with it. I did like the touch in DA where the opponent threw up blood before they exploded. I'm sure they can make it cool again.

I would like to see a different hairstyle for Kitana's alternate too.

Mortal Kombat Armageddon would like to have a word with you.
