In Injustice, there were some lovely cameos from DC characters that didn't make the roster but made for some really fun stage transitions


Scarecrow being the most memorable but all the Arkam cast got a nod,


and Giagantor (or something similar) and a fun animation in another stage


...I don't think we've seen any stage transitions yet but I think this could be a nice compromise to the many fans who are undoubtedly going to be upset when their favourite character isn't playable


I would love Sindel in the game but if shes not, I would be happy with an Edenia stage where you fall into her throne room and she screams at you/does a hair throw into the next stage

We know Goro is making the cut, perhaps another stage transition could have Kintaro and Sheeva play vollyball with a character in another stage


There are so many fun ways this could be incorporated (just think of a Netherealm stage) and we now have a large cast to pick from.

Thoughts???

I think it was stated months ago in an interview that interconnected arenas were considered, but the idea was scrapped. That said, I'm sure a familiar face might be lurking in a few of the stages, but I highly doubt there's going to be a full-on transition utilizing them. The most I'd think they'd do is land a pop-up/stun hit on your opponent (if they're an offensive interactable.)

It's fair to say the most interaction you'll get with the arenas are the offensive and defensive maneuvers, not initiating mini-cutscenes.
Edit: MKUniverse's GamesCom interview with Ed confirmed that stage transitions are not included. Ed said "they're more of an Injustice thing".
Yeah, Boon already said that MKX won't feature any connected arenas. But he also said there'll be a lot of cameos which is nice.

Oh my days. They're really trying to be like Capcom/SNK now. This is one of many reasons why I do not support the two aforementioned companies anymore.

Why not? I think it's cool to show non playable characters someway in the game, but that's just me.

I think this kind of thing works much better with DC because its a much larger universe than MK.
