I mean for all we know, they'll do a bait and switch again far as the ending and what comes next. Retcon what they set up, and move on to a new idea. The Dark Raiden cliffhanger with MKX ultimately meant nothing with how they wasted no time killing him off around the beginning of the story. MKX didn't even capitalize on Quan Chi and Shinnok moving forward on a severely weakened Earthrealm following the end of MK9, and instead waited like a couple years to do the invasion for some reason.

I'm not convinced there'll be as much of a "clean slate" as what MK11's ending set up.
