Despite all that, my hope falls on Shujinko. The "Herald" of Onaga finds the last piece for his master Damashi, the Amulet. Defeats Shinnok, send him back to hell, then tries to flee to the Nexus to return the amulet, but Raiden and the others stop him after a titanic battle, since Shujy has the abillities of all MK characters. But they are too late, Onaga is back to wreak havoc, just like Havik intended to do, after all he's a Cleric of Chaos. What's better than a great villain to bring chaos and instability to all the realms. :) Regardless, Boon doesn't want a playable final boss. So I think Shinnok in his regular form won't be the one who we'll fight. If Shinnok is the final boss then it will be his demon form.

Take in mind that the game spans for 25 years and the events of Deception happen roughly 10 years after MK1-3. So I'm sure we'll see Shujinko sometime in the game but not as the herald of Onaga. Somehow, Shujinko will have to be stopped from continuing to collect the Kamidogu which would prevent the coming of Onaga or at least postpone.
