New DLC Characters On The For Mortal Kombat X In 2016

Mortal Kombat X

It has been announced, officially, that there will be another set of characters coming to Mortal Kombat X but it looks like we will have to wait until 2016 for them

You would be lying to yourself if you though that the first Kombat Pack for Mortal Kombat X was going to be the end of the new characters joining the roster of the game. Even the last Mortal Kombat title before this one had multiple new characters added over time by NetherRealm Studios and that was when DLC wasn’t as easy to add in as it is on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC now. Okay, it most likely was but this is Mortal Kombat X and one of the largest titles the studio has put out to date. Even the DLC that has been placed out there already has been top notch, to a degree, so now we just need to hope that Warner Bros. keeps the funds going to make Mortal Kombat X have an even bigger roster than before.

All of the new speculation and confirmation comes from Ed Boon, Mortal Kombat X‘s Game Director, originally via Twitter and then on the game’s official forum. We have a sample image of silhouettes that are joining Mortal Kombat X and then a description of what the future DLC could be. Well at least we know that we are getting four “new” playable characters. That is certain but Mortal Kombat X will also be getting new skins and environments for us to ruthlessly murder each other in. All within the first half of 2016. I’m guessing much like Mortal Kombat X‘s Kombat Pack that slowly came out over three to four months of time.

Mortal Kombat X – New Characters

Of course we are all asking who the new fighters will be for Mortal Kombat X. Of course humans being what they are we are already getting loads of speculation from the sound to the outlandish. I see Michael Myers and at least one other Ninja Type character; most likely Noob Saibot. Others look at it and see Sweet Tooth and Master Chief coming to Mortal Kombat X. There have also been claims of Rain and Baraka given the fact they are already in Mortal Kombat X just not playable as of yet. What I see for almost certain is that there are no female silhouettes unless they are contorted into some weird angle here. NetherRealm Studios has done strange things before.

If I was a betting being I would say we are most likely getting two more “Klassic Kharacters” for Mortal Kombat X and two new ones. One of whom being a horror franchise character. It fits the current M.O. for NetherRealm Studios and the past. They also have three characters basically started and just need to be finished up for Mortal Kombat X. I will not be surprised if they use any of those characters to pad the DLC and score some extra cash for those holding out so they no longer have to play a modded version of Mortal Kombat X anymore. I just don’t Sindel anywhere in this group though. That is just me…

Who do you see in coming to Mortal Kombat X here? Who do you want to see make the leap into the game? Are you willing to pay to have characters already on the Mortal Kombat X disc to become playable? Would you be upset if that was the case? Let us know down in the comments and go crazy with the speculations. Hopefully it won’t be a long wait to see who NetherRealm Studios is adding to Mortal Kombat X and when Warner Bros. puts out that press release you know we will have the updates right here for you. Please don’t take too long to give that to us though.
