You guys want to get really depressed?
Only one of these characters will make it.
Rain, Erron Black, Shinnok
.
They are all so cool.
I want Rain.
The thing is we need official confirmation that only 5 of the characters in the story trailer are 'confirmed'. He said 5 characters 'revealed' which isn't exactly the same thing. We saw 6 characters in kombat (takeda, Jaqualine, Kung Jin, Rain, Mileena, Sindel, 7 if we count shinnok), 3 in gameplay, 11 total unconfirmed characters (takeda, kung jin, Jaqualine, Shinnok, JC, Sonya, Baraka, Sindel, Mileena, Rain, Erron Black, did I miss any?), 4 classics in 'new' outifts (5 if shinnok's is new, I can't tell to be honest). Add to that mess that Erron Black had differences in his weaponry in at least one scene, and what we do we have? Konfusion.
Is there is a difference between a 'reveal' and a 'confirmation'? would a character that is unlocked by gameplay not be considered 'revealed'? Would a character who is definitely DLC, but shown in the story in this trailer, not be 'revealed'? There are just too many factors to consider here to be absolutely certain.
That being said, the 3 new characters with gameplay are necessarily confirmed, while Mileena was spotted in the challenge tower and thus more or less confirmed in my estimate.. that leaves only 1 of the remaining as 'revealed'. Would we consider Erron Black to already revealed because of his comic appearances? Like I said.. it's a mess of speculation until we have another solid corner pieces to work with.
