Sweet Tooth is an awesome fit, I don't know what you guys are talking about!

Expect he not a Xbox icom

 

[MrSunshine]

He wouldn't be on Xbox like how Kratos wasn't last game.

I remember them stating that this time there are no console exclusive characters. From an interview i believe

 

[SLy]

Expect he not a Xbox icom

Kratos wasnt an Xbox Icon neither. Didnt stop him from appearing in the game.

 

[Elder God]

No exclusive plataform characters, go to hell with Sweet Tooth...

 

[aldazo]

I for some reasons thought they were going to release even more DLC and have two guest charcters. I don't know where I got that from though :/ But if it's true then why not both? Sweet Tooth is ana excellent choice as well

Was skimming through Boon's Twitter to see if I missed anything and on the 4th of Feb. he posted this reply:

Spoiler

Maybe he legitimately just wanted to try this new Oreo treat

I know, another guess is confirmed, it's just that I feel Sweet tooth is a spot wasted. There goes my hopes for T-800 and Predator together in MKX .

 

[aldazo]

guys we not getting console exculsives

is that confirmed somewhere?

They've stated a lot of things that changed over time. I'm not saying a couple of tweets is 100%, but it does seem more likely than not given Boon's recent trends and would satisfy the very recent "guess characters comment they made.

 

[gosoxtim]

is that confirmed somewhere?

Yeah here http://shoryuken.com/2014/12/10/no-console-exclusive-characters-currently-in-the-works-for-mortal-kombat-x/

Tremor,Rain and Smoke confirmed.

I confirmed Smoke a while ago. Don't worry for the latest just stay tuned.

 

[Wetdoba]

is that confirmed somewhere?

ed said it months ago in some interview, said he didnt want to make any characters that not everyone could get so they were going to avoid console exclusive stuff

 

[Braindead]

Or all that velvet talk is just Mileena.

 

[SaltShaker]

Yeah here http://shoryuken.com/2014/12/10/no-console-exclusive-characters-currently-in-the-works-for-mortal-kombat-x/

I actually forgot about that. Hmm, but I don't see what would be the point of those tweets so I'm lost lol.

Or skarlet

I think he was just in ultra troll mode and wanted to mention some of the most requested characters to get "troll on twitter" from his daily bucket list.
Alot of people tweet him Sweet Tooth all the time.

 

[Saint Op Omen]

I feel like he is just screwing around ....
I mean for one those cookies are really good...
everyone then jumped on him about if its a hint or not so he went ham on BS hints...standard Boon

 

[Wemfs]

Tremor, Rain, and Smoke mentions? Please let it be so.

 

[trufenix]

It doesn't matter what he posts. He could post about actual game info or just post about his lunch, people would turn it into a huge elaborate da vinci code puzzle regardless.

 

[Phosferrax]

Red velvet?

Skarlet confirmed.

 

[John Grizzly]

I'll mark out so hard if Tremor is in. By far the coolest character to never be included as fully playable in the history of the series in my opinion.

Smoke and Rain would be cool, too. I really think NRS is adding characters who they think they could do a lot of stuff with variation-wise. Smoke and Rain both fit that category.

 

[mfkaoz]

Him even mentioning Sweet Tooth gets me hype. Not for him as a playable character but for the chance of next gen Twisted Metal

Yea as long as it's more like TM1, 2, and Black, and not like 3, 4, or that recent abomination.

 

[Youphemism]

Bravely defaults gotta be an anagram. Given the sweet tooth tweet I'm guessing a trailer for the first round of dlc is inbound.

That's what I thought, but it might actually be a Fujin hint. I posted it in another thread but here's what I got:

After having no luck finding relevant anagrams I just looked up Bravely Default. Turns out it's a spiritual successor to one of the Final Fantasy games, it's a role playing game with combat elements in it. Scrolled down the Wikipedia page to the first subsection on plot where it began to describe the four main characters. The first character Agnes Oblige?

A wind vestal.

Edit: Wait a minute, it was this thread lmaoooooooooooo. Post 302.

 

[Endding]

Maybe Ed's trying to land an Oreo sponsorship

'Mortal Kombat Kollectors Edition now comes with a pack of Oreos'
