First of all I would like to say that I know full well how "who would you like to see return" threads have been done to death at this point but after the heavy focus on klassic characters in MK9, there are just some characters that we all want to see a return from so who are some of yours?

For me shinnok, fujin, Tanya, frost and reiko are musts. I wouldn't mind seeing bo ri cho as well. It's funny how there's tonnes of choice with MKDA/MKD but MK4 chars seem to be more popular. I think Drahmin and Moloch would make a great sub-boss pairing as they are cool but we don't really need their story.

Also I've been thinking how sad it is to see hero characters come and go like shujinko and taven who just get put aside after their 15 minutes if fame. At least lui kang got a refresh when he became a zombie.
Anyways I see it this way; shujinkos story sets out a very clear timeline and since he overlaps with taven in Armageddon, a whole series of events could be plotted using both stories. This is why I would like to see a game set in a very specific period during that timeframe which also utilises shujinko and brings taven and daegon back in to focus since I like them so much.

I kinda want Sareena, Noob and Havik to have their own side story in the game.

U know... her wanting to bring him back, doing a deal with Havik...

I would kill to have Reiko in the next game. One of the most overlooked and underused characters out there by far.

Working for the forces of light could be Fujin, Kai, Bo' Rai Cho, Li Mei, and Sareena. Johnny Cage and Sonya still remain as well as Raiden.

Shinnok, Reiko, and Tanya alongside Quan Chi (with Scorpion) will represent the new Netherealm threat. We could possibly see Drahmin and Moloch as non-playable guards. Ashrah could potentially be still under the brotherhood before her 'enlightenment' takes place.

Nitara and Havik could have their own agendas. Plus they should really get Reptile to become more neutral and do things on his own to find research on how to free Zaterra.

Also, Sub-Zero and Sektor should definitely be involved, should revisit the liberation of Scorpion from Quan Chi, and Sub-Zero eventually defeating Sektor to become Grandmaster. Frost could be Sektor's apprentice at the time, and Sub-Zero spares her to take her under his own wing.

I feel like Liu Kang lived at the end of MK9, so he should come back as more of an anti-hero now, but not a villain.

So I guess my list consists of:

1. Fujin
2. Kai (as the new hero)
3. Bo' Rai Cho
4. Li Mei
5. Sareena
6. Johnny
7. Sonya
8. Raiden
9. Shinnok
10. Reiko
11. Tanya
12. Quan Chi
13. Scorpion
14. Ashrah
15. Sub-Zero
16. Sektor
17. Frost
18. Liu Kang

With possible additions:

19. Reptile
20. Havik
21. Nitara

Reptile and Nitara aren't as important to this storyline so I'd be okay with them being background characters trying to free their homelands. Havik though, he could be a key piece to all the chaos transpiring from Shinnok's rebellion.

So that's 18-21 characters of a 24-28 roster. With that I'd welcome some newbies to the franchise. Although I'd like to see Drahmin playable, he's pretty unique with his fighting style, hope to see more on his backstory.

And lastly some cameos I'd like to see are first and foremost: Shujinko and Damashi. Kia and Jataaka should be there as well.

Oh and I'd like to add Ermac to the list as well, with King Jerrod there to spice Tanya's plot, and damn I forgot about Rain too. Soooo...

22. Drahmin
23. Ermac
24. Rain
25. Kenshi

Damn now I have too many, glad I'm not the one making the cuts.

Skarlet, Kenshi & Rain deserve a return as playable and not DLC anymore.
