MK9 was nostalgia play the (relatively boring) roster that did that as a return to form production. I'd rather that we keep moving forward with new characters and concepts to keep things fresh and spending time on tweaking returning characters for new games/situations than just trying to hit a higher roster count with ports of older fighters.
This is more than likely fake because based on what I've seen netherrealm's next game does in fact still use unreal engine 3.
Let me try to double check that though.
Edit. Found what I was talking about. This is from late last year

If they are still working with and iterating on their existing in house tech, why reinvent the wheel? It's not like Injustice 2 was a bad looking/performing game.
Well their engine is so modified its basically not even unreal engine 3 anymore. And even still injustice 2 still looks better than most unreal engine 4 games available
Ok so the unreal engine 4 part could be true based on this at least. I hope it is. It would make a switch port A LOT easier.

Not really. Mileena is dead, Sonya is a waste of slot for a long time and we have now Cassie as the next Cage.
It makes sense if they wouldnt be in the base roster. There is always gonna be characters people want and dont get.
NRS showed they listen to fans for some input but at the end of the day they are doing the roster with what they want to see.
They already use UE4 for mobile, though haven't really shown strong signs of switching for their console games.
I'm sorry, but the story is unimportant here.
"Buy our new Mortal Kombat 11 video game for $60 and then pay extra money for the characters you actually care about," is really scummy. X was already missing classic characters and replaced them with a number of unimpressive ones.
I'm not saying the story isn't important in the actual story mode. I'm just referring to the idea of "buy all the classic characters we took out of the game as DLC."
I think that would really be taking advantage of the fan base.
this post, in an alternate reality:
"Buy our new Mortal Kombat 11 video game for $60 with all the same characters you paid for the last time and pay extra money for the new roster," is really scummy.
I don't think that's the same thing. Removing a large amount of classic characters and then putting them in as paid DLC is a very specific hook to get fans in and spend more money.
A good fighting game roster includes a healthy mix of new and old characters. The idea that Kano, Mileena, Sonya, Goro and Cage would all be DLC just doesn't feel right to me. Especially when someone like Sonya was in the last game.
I'm looking through the MKX DLC right now, and it doesn't look like they went for the obvious cash grabs as far as classic characters go. They had plenty of potential to port over MK9 characters, but they didn't.
I think the number of characters in the roster is decided pretty early on in development. And in order to make room for new characters and characters that sat out MKX...some characters from MKX are likely to get the boot. Fans of Mileena, Sonya, Cage etc. should be pretty used to their characters getting swapped out by now. This has been standard fare for Mortal Kombat for everyone not named Sub-Zero or Raiden, long before DLC was a thing.
The leak was simply that these characters would be unplayble. To be resold as DLC is speculation at this point and if MKX is any indication, this won't be the case (well Triborg is kinda iffy). But historically, the alternative here is you don't get to play as these characters at all until the next game.
Right, I'm referring to the rumor in the OP though. :P
(I don't really believe much of this anyway.)
They already had Kratos in 9.
He meant the new Norse Kratos with the beard and axe who feels completely different in every aspect almost a new character. The old Kratos was a guest in many games but the new one never. That is why he deserves to be introduced again and MK11 would be a perfect occasion again.
To be fair, you don't even get those characters back through DLC. They keep opting for more and more guest characters because they create headlines. I would have been happy to buy the characters I wanted to play back as DLC because at least I had the option at all. I don't give a rats ass about Jason or Leatherface and i would have just been fine with one and only one guest character.
I want all the ninjas back.

You forgot Cyrax, Sektor and Tremor......we going full ninja.
They should probably consider overhauling their sound design too.
vs
They didn't add Rain as DLC in MKX even though he was hugely requested only because he was DLC in MK9.
Adventure mode sounds neat. I actually liked the Konquest mode in Deception but I didn't get into Armageddon's story mode cause I just didn't like that game in general. Hopefully the mode is more character action style ala Shaolin Monks.
Don't know really know if I trust this rumor. Boon has seemed to imply they were doing at least something a little different this time around but this leak seems like an easy one to make up.
I'm excited to see something new though. The story mode has been good for the last few NRS games but the formula has stayed the same. I think it's time to innovate in that department once again.

Dunno. Ferra/Torra concept seems to not be that welcome and people didn't like such combo. That is probably why they are skipping those characters in the sequels if the rumors are true.
Hopefully the new one has more "soulnados".
If this new one doesn't have at least three or four weaved into the story, NRS is just leaving money on the table.

Next time use the report feature instead of bumping the thread and giving it more attention.
Well like I said I had no problem with it I'm not really picky about this stuff, I was just wondering since threads with unproven leaks typically get locked. not to mention the previous post was one minute before so I didn't really bump it.
