Apollyon嫌っ wrote: This is probably the most impossible MKX roster ever perceived. Not really:

Scorpion: Confirmed

Raiden: Confirmed

Kung Lao: Confirmed

Liu Kang: Confirmed to be in the comics, has a 50/50 chance of being in the game

Fujin: One of the more popular MK4 characters, so if NetherRealm wants to bring back a few MK4 characters (which is possible) he could be one

Kano: Confirmed

Jax: Hinted at

Johnny Cage: Mentioned a few times by the devs, one even said that Cassie Cage fighting Johnny Cage would be possible

Kitana: Looks like she will be revealed tomorrow

Mileena: It just makes since for her to be in, so I think she has a 50/50 chance

Reptile: Metioned TONS of times on Ed Boon's twitter

Ermac: Just like Reptile, he has been mentioned tons of times on Ed Boon's twitter

Baraka: A stage has been recently confirmed that has portals with tarakartans running out (so if they are in the game, then maybe Baraka can?)

Tanya: The other most popular MK4 character, she has also been rumored to be in the game

Sub-Zero: Confirmed

Quan Chi: Confirmed

Kotal Kahn: Confirmed

D'Vorah: Confirmed

Cassie Cage: Confirmed

Takeda: Confirmed to be in the upcoming live-action digital series (it says he's older), so I think he has a chance of being in the game

Forest Fox: Not to sure about this one, but it's possible I guess

Ferra/Torr: Confirmed

Shinnok: Teased at the end of MK9. I don't see why he won't be in this game, even if he isn't the main boss

As for the 7 (8 if counting DLC) New character slots I added, that's because I think this game will have a good bit of new characters.

As for the DLC, some of those seem like odd choices (Reiko, Li Mei), but I added those because I would like to see them (don't forget this is also a wishlist).

And last but not least, the reason why I chose 30 characters in the main roster is because that is rumored to be the size. NetherRealm has also made it clear plenty of times that the 24 character roster we see in the demos is NOT the final roster. The 6 DLC characters on the other hand, were mainly added because I would like to see more than 4 DLC characters.

So yeah... pretty much character on the picture was added because either they were 1) confirmed to some point, 2) Hinted at, 3) mentioned tons of times, 4) has a good chance of being in the game, or 5) they are rumored to be in the game. There are only a few characters and choices I made that were things I would like to see.
