Ed Boon Tweets Potential DLC Characters For Mortal Kombat

Fighting fans are eagerly anticipating the new Mortal Kombat, and series co-creator Ed Boon is looking to please the MK faithful by returning to the series' 2D roots. On top of the familiar gameplay, the game's roster is decidedly nostalgic; every character revealed so far has been from the first three games. However, Ed Boon may be considering some post-MK3 characters if a couple of recent tweets are any indication.

Rain was introduced in UMK3, Shinnok and Tanya in MK4, and Kenshi in Deadly Alliance. Out of all the potential names tweeted, Robo-Smoke was the only that fit into the first three games.
