Mortal Kombat 12 Will Include Reiko, According To Leaks
A recent leak suggests that MK 4 villain Reiko might be included in Mortal Kombat 12, and that the highly-anticipated sequel could be coming out next year. Ever since NetherRealm announced that it was finished adding DLC to Mortal Kombat 11, fighting game fans have been speculating on what the studio’s next bone-crunching project will be. While Injustice 3 and a hypothetical NetherRealm Marvel game are popular possibilities, most signs point to NetherRealm working on Mortal Kombat 12 — as hinted by some job listings and cryptic social media posts.
As is the case with most future fighting games, the discussion surrounding Mortal Kombat 12 inevitably turns to its potential roster, especially given the status quo-shattering events of MK 11 and its Aftermath DLC. This includes special guest characters, with some fans even making wild suggestions like wrestling legends Mick Foley and Kane. However, recent rumors appear to indicate that while Mortal Kombat 12 could feature a massive roster of playable Kombatants, the game is basically a remastered version of the last three MK games with no new characters and none of the special guests that have turned up to challenge Liu Kang and company over the years.
