What Cyborgs do you think will make it into the game? After MK9 where Subby became a Cyborg (which they are ignoring for MKX) and Smoke staying human. Were left with only Cyrax and Sektor. Do you think either of them will be in MKX? Maybe just one of them or both, or none?

Personally I've been a big Sektor fan since MK3 and id really like to see him make the cut in MKX.
I'd like to see Cyrax because I like him. I hate Sektor because he always fucks me up in MK9, but it would be nice if he's in too.

Boon said that "all the characters weren't revelead yet" when someone asked about cyborgs so I think maybe one will fit in.

My answer would be biased regardless, but I have high hopes for Cyrax. As long as one of the two makes it, I'm cool with that.

I seriously doubt Cyber-Sub will ever happen again.

Well, since there is a human Sub Zero and he's repping the Lin Kuei, I'm assuming he had to have taken it back from Sektor, so I'd say Sektor has a chance of at least an appearance in story mode.

Cyrax is a little harder to peg. If his arcade ending is at least partially canon, he will have left the Lin Kuei and joined the Shaolin Monks to regain a measure of his humanity. Will he take up arms to overthrow the Cyber Lin Kuei? Will he join Raiden on whatever his mission may be? Hard to call.

Cyber Sub Zero will at least be seen in story mode. He has to. Will he be Quan Chi's undead slave? A bargaining chip to keep the human Sub Zero at bay? Either way, I don't think he'll be playable...unless human Subs is Kuai Liang...in which case...ugh.

I'd say Sektor has the best shot of them all.

Both, Cyrax and Sektor are cool, but I think it's time for them to introduce a new kind of cyborg and let it be female.

I could wreck some serious shit with Sektor in MK9. He was mad fun to play as and I really hope he makes a return. His fatalities were easily in my top 10 from MK9 as well.

I'm a big Cyrax fan too, although I wasn't too keen on his gameplay in MK9.

It'd be interesting to see all of their variations and how much they would vary.

Both survived, and Raiden really needs some extra defense now that nearly all of his warriors died. Cyrax could be of major use, even as an infiltrator.

I wouldn't mind seeing a cyborg or two being in X, i bet the designs would look so good this time around.

If I had to take a guess id say Sektor is most likely to come back out of the cyborgs, or possible a new cyborg.

I hate to say it like this, but I think that Cyrax has a better chance of making it into the game simply for diversity's sake. I think we'll see a half-human-half-cyborg variant, possibly to add another black character to the roster. Don't get me wrong, I think there's more to it than the color of his skin. Obviously he's a very popular character, plays an important part in the Lin Kuei's plot, and has potential to have some really cool movesets! I just think that if Jax doesn't make it into the roster, Cyrax would be a lock.

My guess for the cyborgs if it is only returning ones I would say Smoke and Sektor. Cyrax could be DLC.wink

REALLY want Sektor in. Seeing the grandmaster amulet on Sub Zero on the cover of the first comic though, scares me a little. Feel like he might get killed in the comics.

I like Cyrax the most from the established Cyborgs, so he would be my pick.

I wonder how advanced Cyborgs are 25 years in the future!

What if cyrax, sektor and smoke were the variations of one cyborg. I wouldn't be mad personally but I guess the guys that favor a single get screwed out of 3 versions.

Im pretty sure it was said that their voice actors were never contaced and that their buses are running late. Ibexpect them to be DLC. Kuai Liang as a bot may be back as cyber noob.

Earthrealm needs reps, alive ones preferably, before trying to bring dead characters back, I would have chosen Cyrax, his redemption would be a great opportunity for development. He doesn't age, but his appearance could have undergone lots of changes in 25 years. He has a wide variety of weapons that could be easily expanded upon with the variation system.

Finally, just for diversity's sake, a cyborg is a must, imo.

Out of any of the cyborgs we have already, I'd rather see Sektor make a return and hope that they dive into the whole Tekunin Army story that they had for him in the previous timeline.

As a big Sektor fan I'd like to see him return but unfortunately if any of the cyborgs will return Cyrax will be the one they go with simply because he is popular.

I would love to see Sektor in mortal kombat x and how his design will be in this game which so far showed amazing character designs.

I still have hope for Sektor but it's little hopefully if he didn't show up in the final roster he will be DLC.

I believe if Cyrax is in, Sektor will be too in one way or another.

As a Sub-Zero fan, I prefer Sektor over Cyrax, because of his moveset and because of the kind of character he is. Sektor might be crazy, but he defined Kuai Liang in the old timeline way more than Scorpion did, becoming his true archnemesis with Sub-Zero's victory over him making the character evolve a lot while everything Scorpion ever did was being annoying about vengeance because someone tricked him again into believing something.

But currently I'm not really sure if he will make it to the game. It really depends on what will happen when Sub-Zero becomes the Grandmaster (as his variations state):

- If Sub-Zero is going to kill him, then I think they will use the comics to tell that story instead of creating Sektor just to give him a single fight in story mode.

- If Sub-Zero spares him, then he can run away, heal and create the Tekunin, becomming a new threat for Earthrealm defenders, maybe even adding a new cyborg character in the process.

About Cyrax, I think he has more chances just because hi was a featured character in competitive play. His bag of tricks could work well with variations too so he also has that.

If Cyrax makes it, I really think he will go the Special Forces route again to redeem himself, probably starting the game as programmed evil until the cyborg Lin Kuei falls.

Sektor imo should be finished quickly and done, because he is the least bit unique of the three. Smoke is not a cyborg, so that leaves Cyrax.

Certainly Sektor. Do not approach the maximum level of threat he became assuming the Lin Kuei, modified by the medallion, crazed by their greater efficiency, and trying robotizar all, creating a highly efficient army to the Lin Kuei.

I believe that the Sub Zero should only amount to leader of the Lin Kuei at the end of Story Mode. Until then Sektor must have a major arc.

At the time Sektor is much more important for history that Cyrax. Until why not have Sektor (in MKX) is throw away the second most important arc MK9.
