Didn't Ed Boon say the boss of the game is in the storymode trailer?
And if so I am going with it still being Shinnok but probably infused with Shao Khans soul or something like that either way Khans soul will play heavy into how the story ends.

I'm guessing it's the Blood...whatever it's called , my guess is it possesses someone , I could be way off tho

Maybe it's a part of the One Being using Shinnok as it's avatar?

Another thing about the komic, I love how gleeful they are about thinning the herd. Hsu Hao and Rain already got offed spectacularly and it looks like Mavado is next. Eh, we've discussed in the past whether Rain is dead or not, as he let out a grunt of pain after being Venusaur'd, so until he's actually shown/stated to be dead, assume he's still alive.
Hsu Hao on the other hand had his face punched in. He's pretty dead...
Considering Rain can be seen for a split second in the latest trailer dropkicking Kotal Kahn off a building, I'd say it's fair to say he somehow survived.

Why do I get a sneaking suspicion that, despite being a literally bloodthirsty war god, Kotal Kahn will somehow wind up being one of the good guys?

Just a random idea I had, surprised that to my knowledge there hasn't been anything like this in MK before:
Classic Arcade ladder mode, except once you start the ladder, any time you perform a fatality or have a fatality performed on you, that character is eliminated for the duration of this ladder and is no longer selectable after you lose a match. Not sure how this would work for characters further up the ladder but maybe the ladder could be dynamic and change according to who's still left.
Could be a rare case where you -wouldn't- want to perform a fatality on the computer opponents.

I'm not sure it adds enough to become its own mode, especially when the same effect can be accomplished by simply choosing not to use the characters a fatality was performed on.

I dunno...locking out the character you were starting to get the hang of would be a hell of a way to learn not to take unnecessary risks. Though maybe you could pick from a pool of characters you like, and each one who gets Fatalitied would be locked out, forcing you to continue with the others until your stable is depleted (Game Over!) or you win.

But again, it doesn't need to be its own mode. You can do the same thing by forcing yourself to pick a different character. Plus, seems like not losing should be enough of an incentive not to take unnecessary risks.

A few sites have said that it was confirmed by NetherRealm Studios senior producer Adam Urbano. {Spoiler}In an interview that he gave, he stated that "You'll get to play as Johnny Cage, but we're also showing Cassie Cage, who is the daughter of Sonya and Johnny," Urbano said. "You'll get a chance to see Kenshi and a chance to see a couple more." I would've posted the video, but unfortunately the interview was removed for some reason, and other videos that mention it have been pulled by WB for copyright reasons.

I haven't seen it online, so I was curious where that info was.

You know the weird thing, there hasn't even been any gameplay footage of him yet but the character I'm most hyped about is Takeda (Kenshi's son and Scorpion's pupil) Because f*** me telekinesis + ninja knife-on-rope sounds like such a good combination I can't believe this is the first time they're doing it.

Hopefully this means we get more back and forth banter between Kano and Johnny Cage

There needs to be more secrets like the 2D era
I also wish they could change the endings concept

Yeah, from the looks of things, it looks like they intend to make him the main character of the "new generation" Mortal Kombat universe.
