So while the hat definitely screams Raiden, the face and hair didn't. Also the end of 11 had Liu Kang taking to the great Kung Lao, so that's why I assumed it was him. But hey! He looks cool ether way, but I do see how it could be Raiden.
@STFUppercut69 Жыл бұрын
Yeah, they race-swapped Raiden for the new universe. But pointed hat + white and blue shirt + thunder above him when he faces Kung Lao = Raiden. Curious to see this mortal Raiden and his role in the story. Hopefully a more proactive one. Raiden was always one of the most powerful Mortal Kombat characters (arguably the most powerful one), but always held himself back due to his obsession with the Elder Gods.

Hi guys. I am Lexxington from WB games Marketing Dept. I know Nintendo Switch owners feel descriminated by the developers of Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8. No need to worry Nintendo Switch owners who play Mortal Kombat on the train or the plane . Mortal Kombat 1, this 30th anniversary release will be on your console September 19, 2023. Ps. John Wick , The Equalizer ( Mr. Mccall) and Jason Bourne will be DLC by Christmas 2023.

What I'm most intrigued for is to see Raiden in all this since now he's simple a mortal man, the god of thunder no more. But I'm happy to see them sticking with how 11 ended with time being reset under a new guiding hand (even going as far as to simply call it MK 1 committing to a new story with familiar yet unfamiliar characters.)
