I have seen some others mention this pattern but i decided to examine it and we should discuss it.
It might be Mileena. Theres has kind of been a pattern. The reveals kinda go by game with the exception of Quan Chi.
The reveals went
Scorpion-MK1
Sub-Zero- MK1
Raiden-MK1
Kano-MK1
Goro- MK1
Kung Lao- MK2
Kitana- MK2
Reptile- MK2
Quan Chi was retconned to have been around since MK1 so it kind of makes sense. If this pattern is true. Then Mileena would have to be next or she would not be in because Ermac is MK3.
If this is true, Johnny, Sonya, and Liu Kang are indeed not playable. Maybe Liu will be the boss.
If Mileena and Shang Tsung are In the game they might be revealed really soon. Same with Baraka.Âa
It would also make sense why we have yet to see any 3D or new characters.

Ermac came in, in a remake of MK3 and wasn't initially in MK3.

But Reptile wasnt playable until MK2 so he can be considered and MK2 character. Ermac is from the era of MK3.

Not playable doesn't mean wasn't in the game...
Shao Kahn was in MK2 and MK3 but he was not playable in either of those games.
He was playable in MKT, So does Shao Kahn count as an MKT character?
Even an example from your own list...
Goro was never playable in MK1, he didn't appear in MK2. it was not until MKT that he was first playable.
So by your logic Goro is an MKT character not an MK1 character...
Not trying to be hard but just trying to explain, it's nice that people speculate I love speculation and I respect everybody's opinion :D.

Every main MK game has had at least one of the 3 "heroes" in so far, so I doubt we'll not have at least one of the Cage/Sonya/Liu Kang trio in there.

When people say MK3 they also mean UMK3/MKT as well. Its just a simpler way of saying it.

Reptile wasn't playable until MKII
"The black dragon, lives on!"
Every character revealed is based on playable appearance.
With Mileena and Shang Tsung leaked, they're going to be the next returning reveals. Again, characters that was playable in MKII.
The only thing that's bothering me is that it was slipped that "supposedly" (sp?), Liu Kang, Johnny, and Sonya were playable. But I've been having my doubts for a long time, especially about Johnny and Sonya mainly because of Cassie existence. Saying that we might train against them in the story mode. Yeah yeah yeah "just because Cassie has her own version of her parents moves doesn't mean she's replacing them".
These three characters are the only thing that will break this pattern, until then, the pattern is still going strong.

Nope the pattern is not going "strong"
If you have read what I posted you'd know that.
Goro was not playable in MK1 and he was revealed.
So the pattern is false bro.
Not really into this theory, IMO if you don't count Reptile as MK1 because he wasn't playable until MK2, then you don't count Quan Chi as pre-MK1 or "around" MK1 because he wasn't playable in Mythologies. You can't have a pattern but then excuse some exceptions and not others.
Plus, isn't Johnny pseudo-confirmed?

As ignorant as this will sound, and you're right, but I am personally not going to count in Goro, due to him being DLC, and also we still don't even know if he's playable in the roster, or just a story mode chapter. Yes, these reasons don't ignore the fact that he wasn't playable in MK1. But I'm still going to blindly ignore Goro and stick to the pattern, that's now cripple and walking with a limp. :P

Ok, but the extra characters in UMK3 and MKT aren't in the in initial MK3 game. Point set.

Yeah, besides Adam Urbano slipping up and saying we could fight Cassie as Johnny, he's a main star in the tie in web-series and he's supposed to be trying to rescue Cassie in issue 5 of the tie in comic. I'd be shocked if he wasn't in the game at all.

With the exception of Goro, This is what we're gonna call it? Because the reveaing pattern is a big flipping coincidence. There's got to be a better word for this than coincidence.

you sound like a tool when you say "point set". What point? Most people consider UMK3 to be MK3. UMK3 and Trilogy are two completely different games though.

Lol, but you are a tool in a whole MK3 and UMK3 are completely different. IMO

But I think we can throw in exceptions though. Or is throwing in exceptions to a pattern turns it to coincidence? ugh... How and what could we all agree to label this, though? A bunch of characters were revealed..coincidentally happen to be first playable in MK1. Except Quan Chi (retcon as here all along) and Goro (a DLC). Yes, I know, "excuses". Then a few more characters revealed, coincidentally happen to be first playable in MKII. What do we do from here?Not really into this theory, IMO if you don't count Reptile as MK1 because he wasn't playable until MK2, then you don't count Quan Chi as pre-MK1 or "around" MK1 because he wasn't playable in Mythologies.

I think coincidence suits it just fine. It makes sense to reveal the well known characters early on and they just happen to have shown the MK1 characters before MK2 characters. We'll know for sure soon enough. Bring on the reveals!
