Both the ending post-credits and his arcade ending in mortal kombat X showed him as the new ruler of Netherrealm (alongside Kitana), so it's possible he'll stick as the lord of netherrealm for a while, but there are good chances that he'll be restored in the future and maybe become the new protector of earthrealm (just like it was suggested in mk 9 and in his interactions with raiden in mk X)
