Who's Next? Four New Kombatants Teased for Mortal Kombat X Reveal

Posted at 09/03/2015 01:32 AM EDT by

The hints keep coming! Even as speculation ramps up for returning klassic arenas; Creative Director Ed Boon has dropped a teaser image for four new characters who'll be announced tomorrow!

The question since the earliest promotion has been: Who's Next? Four silhouettes seem to confirm a long requested second Kombat Pack, with the identities of each download character presumably to be revealed - or at least hinted at - tomorrow!

The guessing game for deliberately obscured characters has already brought forth a torrent of wild speculation, and wishful thinking. Top suspects range from a confidently identified Bo' Rai Cho on the right, to Smoke, Noob Saibot, Baraka, Sindel and combinations thereof, from left to middle.

Will Fujin finally blow a mighty wind as a playable character - or will the proverbial "Martian Manhunter" have a longer wait in an increasingly extended DLC cycle? Could the unkempt hair of Silhouette #2 give Rain fans a redesigned reprieve, or is snap speculation of the likes of Michael Meyers or Leatherface ripe for more horror guest characters?

With so many characters from story mode in the firing line, it's certainly easy to see why "encore" was on Ed's mind.

Stay tuned for the next reveal! Register to join the speculation fun on the Mortal Kombat X forum! Support the community by liking and sharing stories via @MK_Online, Facebook & YouTube .

Cyrax did show up in the last comic. We're going to know if he survives on Sunday in the final chapter. Also, let's not forget Fujin and Bo Rai Cho didn't have in-game models but only high-res ones for the pre-rendered cutscenes. Small differences like that could be chalked up to the playable model having a little bit less details.

The character silhouettes were kinda simplified for MK9's dlc, I remember Fredy not having a hat, possibly to not give it away. No need to over analyse the little things like clothing seams for that reason...

That first and last one is definitely Baraka and Bo. Not that it changes much, but i believe the characters are seen from behind based on those two.

Can't wait for tomorrow !

The only thing about tomorrow that I'm dreading is that I'm just not prepared for Fujin to be overlooked.....yet again.

I think these silhouettes may be decoys, but I did some theorizing here with brightened screencaps: http://testyourmight.com/threads/mkx-kombat-pack-2-announcement-tomorrow.55810/page-15#post-1887045

I see Baraka, ?? (I'm praying Sindel), a cyborg or Fujin, and Bo' Rai Cho.

Yeah, I also notice that the characters looks like they're seeing from behind.

As someone mentioned before this seems like a story pack,

Baraka
Rain or Sindel
Fujin
Bo Rai Cho

#2 looks like it has a bulky cloth on its arms. It's doesn't match the current designs of rain or like mei, who have their arms exposed, or sindel, who has tight mesh on her arms. As unlikely as it is, I'm considering ashrah as being the character. If only for that fact that that's the only silhouette that could be female, and she has a bulky cloth robe. Maybe they edited out her hat like they did for Freddy in mk9

I love Ashrah, so while I'll be super depressed if Sindel doesn't make the cut that'd be a nice consolation prize. It seems unlikely, though.

I wish they would do 2 female characters at once. I know that it isn't good from a business standpoint but all of my favorites are female. I think Sindel, Li Mei, and Ashrah have the best chances in that order imo. I need to get a That's so Raven gif in case I'm right about ashrah tho lmao

lol you truly would be psychic af

I feel like Sareena would make it in before Ashrah, but I've always liked Ashrah better and they're basically the same concept so ̄\_(ツ)_/ ̄

Smoke, Rain, Baraka and Bo Rai Cho

Sad there is no female character, would have liked Sindel or Jade back

Well, one things for certain. I'm already pretty much a happy camper as long as Bo' is in there. I just hope and pray Fujin gets some love this time around.

It'd also be nice if they'd given us a time table of when to expect this thing to drop.

I would strangely pay for Boon to be playable just to perform all those finishers on him.

Looking at the chubby looks of the right person it has to be bo rai cho. On the left smoke, middle right Fujin and middle left Alien.

Third silouette is kinda obvious..

It's Cyrax from MK: Annihilation. So I'm tipping it'll include the Special Forces medical facility.

I think those silhouettes are generic tbh.

First one is probably Noob / Smoke

Second one Frost / Sindel

Third one is a cyborg / ninja hybrid (Noob?)

Fourth one is Bo Rai Cho 100%

Baraka is clearly unliked by NRS so that's why I won't get my hopes up. No Fujin (though the third one could be him) or Baraka would be really messed up, so much potential and requests / familiarity.

I believe they are of the actual characters, but simply distorted a bit to not appear as obvious- which is working because some people think number 1 is Baraka, some think Noob and others of course Fujin lol

I sure as hell still can't figure out number 2 for the life of me. I've been looking at it so hard and I'm still stumped.

I'll probably take a stab in the dark and say Li Mei but I'm fearing another guest.

I totally see Cyrax. I'm almost 110% sure him and Bo are in pack 2.
