Khameleon you might not ever see again because she's a Nintendo exclusive. Mortal Kombat Trilogy for the N64 was her debut and she returned in the Wii version of Armageddon.

We might not see Freddy Krueger or Kratos in another Mortal Kombat game. Both characters being from non-Mortal Kombat related media it's just not likely. Most games that feature a guest character (Soul Calibur for example) don't usually have non-related guest characters come back in future games. This is probably due to the fact that the developers would want to see their characters fight the next unusual thing. Also, there's no real reason to believe that Boon is going to have another guest character in this game or any other future games for that instance. Although, the game is supposed to have 14 new characters and 14 old characters with a total of 30 characters. The two that are not accounted for could possibly be guest characters.

Shao Kahn was killed in the last game so that's unlikely that we'll see him in this game. Though there are three individual character endings that suggest Shao Kahn coming back in one form or another. Nightwolf's ending had Shao Kahn's soul attach itself to Nightwolf's wolf animality and once they were united then the body of Nightwolf becomes a monster werewolf that turns people into subservient werewolves. Therefore, Shao Kahn the werewolf. Cyber Sub-Zero's ending suggests that Shao Kahn possesses Cyber Sub-Zero's body. And in Quan Chi's ending, he becomes Quan Chi's zombie servent and conquers Shinnok.

Dark Kahn was an amalgamation of Shao Kahn from MK and Darkseid from DC in MKvsDCU. And he wasn't a canon character.

Rain, Skarlet, Goro, and Kintaro we'll probably see again depending on how Boon feels about it.

Take in mind, I do know that you want to see these characters and not necessarily think that they will come back.
