I was expecting to be the most hyped for Ashrah, but after seeing this, I'm actually most excited for what they did with Reptile. I never, ever thought they'd give him his "human" camouflage again, and I haven't really liked his designs very much since they got rid of it. But giving it back to him and allowing him to transform into his reptilian form at will will is such a great idea that I think scratches the itch for both versions. And I like him being able to speak in full intelligible sentences too. Plus he's on the good guys' side? Yes!!
Ashrah looks decent. I was sad to see her hat missing, but in one of the story scenes she actually does have a hat on. I really hope her hat is a toggleable gear piece for all her oitfits. It looks like at one point Kung Lao, Johnny, Kenshi, Ashrah, and Reptile are being pursued by Outworlders and have to disguise themselves, except Reptile who goes invisible. They appear to have a knocked out Quan Chi with them too, also disguised.
Havik is back, and his design is similar to his classic outfit but also somehow looks younger. His fatal blow is really good. It definitely looks like he is less neutral, more villainous this time around. Seems he has some kind of goal to kill one realm to free another. His scene takes place in the coolest looking stage in the game so far.
We also see some other outfits for some characters. Kitana, Mileena, and Li Mei appear in more regal gear, and I like that outfit for Li Mei a lot more. Johnny and Kung Lao appear in some kind of armored suits. Also we see Kenshi now wearing a blindfold in-story and Johnny assisting him in navigating along. I wonder if Kenshi will permanently lose his vision again, or if it's a temporary loss, i.e. burns from Reptile's acid before they team up.
We have seen Kenshi in his suit, Shaolin training gear, his red and black trenchant, and now in his Outworld disguise. We have also seen Johnny in his collared shirt, martial arts gear, armor, and Outworld disguise, meaning there seems to be at least 4 unique skins per character not including palette swaps.
