Now that Rain has been revealed, let's discuss what we expect from the character, what we saw in the trailer, and more once he is released!

So buzzing for my boi Rain!! Water powers have so much potential in fighting games. If they've treated him like Fujin -who doesn't just have wind powers, his whole moveset gives him that dynamic/airborne flair- then he's gonna be dope. I'm picturing a very fluid, T'ai Chi Ch'uan looking style where he attacks more with water rather than his fists!

.... they mostly come at night. Mostly.
Seriously, this Rain is the best ever, so badass, the best Rain version ever, this character now gained all respect she lacked before, is not a meme character anymore .... they nailed with this look appearance to him, major props to NRS ! ;)

Following Mileena he will be the second character I try out. MK Trilogy Rain is some of the most fun I have ever had in a FG, so if he becomes my new main here I'll gladly take it!

This is the best Rain has ever looked. Armageddon and MK9 were very much reimaginings of the UMK3 classic ninja, but weren't super demi-god princely (though Armageddon did the princely a bit better with the crown piece of the mask). MKX was sorta princely, but made me think more of a male brothel escort than a demi-god.

This perfectly captures MK ninja outfit with the perfect amount of flair and style to clearly indicate that ninja is a regal motherfucker. An A+ job from NRS.

The best part of this game is NRS is really highlighting different cultural weapons and aesthetics. I am 100% here for it, Rain looks absolutely stunning.

Really looking forward to how he plays. I really hope he has a rushdown, high chip damage variation with his katar.

Unmasked Rain gone be a Bollywood model.
