Non-canon like the other intros of course, but definitely one of the more clever & unexpected post-KP2 easter egg references out there. Good points.

I opened up a video of all the mirror match intros and a thought hit me. A lot of these mirror match intros, along with Kitana's arcade ending, as well as Liu Kang/Kung Lao/Kitana's human variations, they all show what was, should be, or can be. Liu Kang and Kung Lao both having grey hair while Kitana is just herself but alive. My thought is what if NetherRealm Studios is preparing us for a time travel or alternate universe story for the next game?
