chrisisnice

I'm a lover, not a fighter
Because there will never be a MK in the future without them

Scorpion
Sub Zero

Because they are important to the ending of MKX

Liu Kang
Raiden
Kitana


Because they have to

Johnny
Jax
Kenshi

Because they were key figures and were popular in MKX

Cassie
Kotal

Because they are destined to return

Shang Tsung
Frost

Because they need to make something out of the young crew from MKX

Jaqui
Takeda

Because they were in the last one in cut scenes but not playable

Li Mei
Fujin

Dark horse

Ashrah - she isn't massively popular, but she has a definite fan base calling for her (a bit like Zatanna in IJ)


DLC

Mileena
Noob

Who I want back but won't: Tanya, Tanya and Tanya

I really hope we can move beyond guest characters. As much of a Raiden fan as I am, I didn’t need him in I2.
 

Israel

Noob
Please, no guests. So far they've been all terrible and we need more MK characters.
In this day in age of gaming, good luck.
They're gonna keep throwing guest characters in everything. And they never had nor will they ever get my money.

Leather face especially is in really poor taste, based off a real psychotic. Worst creative decision NRS has ever made. If you're going to put guest characters in your games, keep them relevant and fictional.
 

villainous monk

Terrible times breed terrible things, my lord.
My wish would be.The almighty, omnipotent, the all powerful Shao Kahn!!! First and foremost. The supreme and true Emperor of Outworld who's divine absoluteness of his rule & power strikes fear and sheer terrior in the series. There's not many bosses who have lore like the emperor himself.

We pretty much can be certain that the original cast of MKI & MKII are in aswell. I know most of us want a Trilogy but maybe. Maybe we'll get something closer to it. Here's my wish list. If it was a Trilogy type game.


Baraka. He's the most interesting character from MKII and his race is a intriguing & important part of the lore that is Mortal Kombat.

Shang Tsung. The Original sorcerer and antagonist of the series. Look. We want him back K.

Jade. She too is intriguing and her story is just too important to leave out in the next MK.

Noob Saibot. Nuff said.

Ashrah. Besides her beautiful rich name she has one of most interesting stories in the lore of mortal Kombat. Redemption. Pure and simple. Where everyone seeks fame, immortality, destruction, chaos dictatorship and godhood. She just seeks for a way out of her damnation. If not at playable which I hope for at least a cameo please. She was pretty damn good in MKD.

Kotal Kahn. 2 Kahn's head to head for Outworld. My money is on Shao Kahn.

Erron Black. Yung Eastwood is definitely coming back in someway shape or form. Especially player wise since he's a more upgraded version of Stryker.

Nightwolf. Dawg. The man is a badass. Always has been a solid character with a solid story since MKIII having him not in MKX was a a good move. The character would've been ruined.

Kenshi. Him and Takeda... Takahashi are in it. I can't see them not in the next MK game.

Sheeva. From what they did to revitalize her in the comics and how she turned boss. She needs to be in the next MK game.

Rain. I feel he's always had a raw deal lore wise. Fleshing his background out would do wonders for him and who he affects in the canonical story.

Kabal. With what happened to Kano in mkx we should be seeing him in the next game for sure.

Curtis Stryker. I presume freed by special forces and is playing a role like Jax in retirement but we can still hopefully play him in game.

Frost. The frosty ninja needs another chance to be in the games. Different movesets to set her apart from Sub-Zero and a more darker and chilling story line to help keep this character in the mainstream of the games and lore. It's been years since we've played frost. Nrs we're due.

Lei Mei. She was pivotal in the later MK games. Maybe more so then most know. To have her finally included into the game would be great and would be nice to have her in the game besides a cameo role.

Mavado. The black dragon needs a palte swap I guess.

Nitara. Her story was given so much attention in one game but was never explored again. There are tons of people who want her back in. Including me besides that a side story or a new introduction would be great to the vampire of Kombat.

Fujin. Listen. The earth needs a true guardian. And I want the mythologies costume with the cape and head band too.

Sareena with Kia & Jataaka. Maybe the same way has triborg. They need to stop teasing us with her especially since Master Quan is deadish.

Jarek. New moves like in Armageddon but better this time. Seems more important lore wise now too since he appears to be a second in command of the clan. Kria too. She's hasn't been playable in ages.

Kai. He been MIA for far too long. He should be the alternative hope for Earth realm along with Kung Lao, Kung Jin &and a revitalized Liu Kang.

Cassie Cage. Sonya 2.0 is all gown up now. Her along with Jacqueline Briggs are gonna in the game for sure.

Reiko. He was shrouded in mystery forever. Until Armageddon when his story was given some life but it really took off in the comics that was released with MKX. This by far is his strongest reason to have him in the next MK game in some capacity besides just a mention of him I'm the games. Another character that for some reason was given a raw deal but still had a staring role to play in the canonical story line if they choose to follow this route. As a playable character he was always interesting but lacked more originality.

Tayna. Have her back but not with the b.s. player wise.

Tremor. Same as Tayna.

D'Vorah. The character is interesting. Kinda like what they did with Nitara in MKDA but went ham on her back story, playstyles, character and the way she interacted in the new storyline. She's super developed and has alot more depth to her. Having her not in the next game would be a crime.

The realm of Order. Just have Hotaru, Dairou and Darrius in the game finally. Better moves and a better story then a episode of law and order.

Havik. The cleric of Chaos. If you know your MK history. If you've read the comic that detailed his plan and manipulation of Reiko and a ton of others and all his non canonical endings you can see he's is literally one of a kind. Quite unique both has a playable character and in the lore. He should and I hope he's in the next game.

Smoke. There's so much more to smoke lots of people hypothesize and know. If he was just in the game I would be happy along with Cyrax and Sektor. It would be awesome if they did it just like in UMK3 or MK9 where we could play as both robotic & human form. Individual characters. No triborg nonsense.

Quan chi. He and shinnok ain't dead infact we'll see them in the next game. Especially Quan Chi

Sindel. She's always been a huge part of the earlier MK titles but was kind of brought in quickly and left just as quick has she came in the later games. She's there's a lot to her more then being just there. Game play wise she's needs a come back just as good as in MKD and MK9.

Last but definitely not least.


KANO!!! Nuff. Said. And his son that they teased about. Kano's son would be HYPE!!!

There's others like Deagon, Shujinko, Taven & Onaga who are meh. If there in then yay for those who want them.

Thanks for reading my long ass wish list.

I know there’s a fondness for mk9 but there will never be another cyrax/ Kaball bullsht fest in nrs games again I pray. Expect no one to play the same.

Ether he variation system we ended up with 100 characters. Which was absurd. My wishlist is no variations. No run mechanic. And a more contained roster (base of 28) with some new additions.

Injustice now has 41. Which is already too much. 35-38 I hope is the max.

Ferra/Torr must not come back.

Hotaru and Darrius are kinda interesting, they're good material to work with. Dairou is crappy as hell, keep him away from here.

Strongly doubt they will. One of them died anyway, so the other will be partnered with another symbiote. I think they just wanted to try the character concept (which was interesting) but there isn't enough personality or fan demand there to warrant them coming back.

I mean imagine if F/T was in MK 11 but Rain or Smoke weren't. :mad:

Torr only died in the arcade mode ending, and most of the time, the arcade endings are not canon. So as of right now, both Ferra and Torr are still alive.

Also I personally love F/T and I think they should come back, also I think that Rain and Smoke (as part of Triborg) will also come back in addition to F/T. In fact I think that Jacqui Briggs and Kung Jin have a smaller chance of coming back then F/T.

I'm not sure I'd agree with that, but honestly I don't mind if F/T returns, I just think it's unlikely. I'm not sure what the character popularity stats are like by this point, but I assume F/T must be within the bottom segment.

Triborg only came about because of fan demand for the cyborgs and the variation system; these two things allowed for a unique case like Triborg, as it let them shoehorn three classic characters (+ Cyber Subby) into a single DLC character. Triborg represented value for money via an innovative system; he won't be canon, and he won't return in MK 11 -- primarily because I think (human/enenra) Smoke will be on the roster.

I really hope Rain comes back, though!

Yes Triborg at first came thanks to the Variation system, but I also heard from NRS' in an interview (can't exactly remember who it was from NRS) that Triborg might turn out to be canon, so that means that by MK11 Tribrog can be canon. Of course it is not confirmed now, but it is a possibility (also I don't think "shoehorn" is the right word, just "put" is enough). Also now that I think about it, since I believe NRS will bring back the Variation system to MK11 but with only 2 Variations per char, I think there is a possibility Ninja Smoke will come back as his own character, and then Triborg will come back with the Variation of Cyrax and Sektor, as well as Cyber Sub-Zero for the Variation-less spot like in MKX.

Also about F/T, I do think that they have a good chance to come back, F/T was one of the better new designs introduced in MKX, so I think the chances from them are good.

And yes I would love to see Rain as well, I won't be mad if he doesn't return but that will be awesome for sure.

I wouldn't usually nitpick over something like this, but I think when you're using a single character to represent four different characters (one of whom is secret) then I think 'shoehorn' is a decent word to use.

I imagine most people would prefer Sektor and Cyrax to return in their original cyborg forms, alongside regular Smoke. Cyber Sub-Zero was fine as a plot aberration, but I have no desire to see him return as a playable character. Likewise, it was great to see a robotic form of Smoke again (loved him in MK3) but, if pressed, I would pick regular Smoke over him every time.

I don't wanna say that there is no chance that Cyrax and Sektor will come back as singular characters as NRS have proven several times already that they can bring back dead characters, both in MK and IJ games, so that option for Cyrax and Sektor isn't off the window, but I think it is more likely that Triborg will come back and this time he will be canon with Variations of Cyrax, Sektor and Cyber Sub-Zero, and Ninja Smoke will be his own character. But if they all come back as singular chars, that will be great too.

Also I personally prefer Robo Smoke over Ninja Smoke, but that's just me. Of course that Ninja Smoke is awesome as well.
 
Who I think will be in : Shang Tsung, Fujin, Noob Saibot, Erron Black and Kotal are safe bets.
Who I want : Havik, Reiko, Mavado, Kano, Horaru.
Who I don’t want to be in : Kitana, Ermac, Mileena, Jaqui, Kung Jin. (Either bland, repetitive or brain dead)
I hope they take a clue from IJ2 and continue to get better with balancing as well. Frankly MK X had a lot of overpowered bullshit characters

i would like to main one or two new chars in mk11. i mean brand new chars!
i would also like to play fujin!
i've been saying this for a while: i predict mk11 will be a dedicated tag fighter (2on2)
i still hope for an mk tag fighter cos it would be amazing.
but i smell that we will get trolled by the next game somehow lol
