Goro is the Prince of the Shokan, a half human, half dragon Outworld race known for their honor and service to Shao Kahn throughout the ages. With the death of Shao Kahn,the rise of Kotal Kahn and the Netherrealm's assault, what part will Goro play in the events of Mortal Kombat X?

Discuss & speculate about Goro!

So is he only available if you pre-order? Or does pre-ordering like unlock him earlier or something. I try not to complain about pre-order stuff because it's mostly cosmetic, but a full character seems a little..... scummy.

Either way I'm excited to see how he plays, probably gonna burrow some tools from more than a few injustice big bodies.

Nobody knows yet, we probably won't know till pretty close to release all the details (or even not till after). I think it's lame that such a cool, iconic character like Goro is going to be a pre-order bonus and not available to everyone from the get go, but the good thing is that you can get him for free with no additional cost to you if you pre-order so there's that side of things too.

I made sure to pre-order because I want to play Goro day one and go in hard on breaking him down. I really hope he's mobile and agile, not clunky and slow like a lot of grapplers or big body characters.

I just want Goro footage to be honest haha.

My pussy, my rules
What we know
•He'll be in the game.



What we don't know
•What he looks like, fully.
•The role he'll play in the story, if any.
•What any of his variations will be, or how they'll differ from one another.
•What any of his normals and specials look like, along with their respective properties, animations, and frame data.

Day 1 main.<3

Yea, no point stressing over it till we know for sure. In regards to his gamplay I remember Ed Boon mentioning somewhere that he's probably going to burrow some shit from Doomsday. That can mean a number of things, so I guess we probably shouldn't read too much into it, but something to know.

@Espio

mobile and agile are not words that would be associated with goro, i wouldnt think. lol

something with his size wouldnt be about quickness, but raw power.

Take a look at Doomsday. >_>
i would say dd isnt about being agile. he uses his power to bully his way in.

hes mobile, sure. but not in an agile way, imo anyway. he doesnt have air dashes or acrobatic moves or moves like hawkgirl or things that you would associate with that type of character

It's gonna be funny when Goro isn't a true playable character
Yeah, right. This place and many others will be flooded with so much bitching that it will be unbelievable. It was touted that he'd be a fully playable character (variations and all) and if that winds up not being the case, people are going to feel cheated as fuck on their pre-order bonus, despite it costing nothing extra.

Being big and powerful does not mean you can't be quick and mobile.

Also this:

Doomsday's dash too real.

But for real lol, they already said he would be that, with variations and all.

I'm coming in here to start beef.
I'm calling you out @Eldriken . Goro will be low tier, and Ferra/Torr will be the Bane to your Grundy.
Your ass is grass. Unless he has Body Splash.
