Rumor: Liu Kang And Kenshi Return In Mortal Kombat X

Some new evidence may have appeared that Liu Kang and Kenshi will be added to Mortal Kombat X’s ever growing roster of fighters.

If you look at the Mortal Kombat X IMDb page, the cast shows that Tom Choi voices Liu Kang in the game and Craig Sechler voices Kenshi. These are the only unannounced characters to be listed on the cast page. Choi already played Liu Kang in the Mortal Kombat game released in 2011. While the addition of Kenshi is a nice surprise if this turns out to be true.

Kenshi was added as DLC in the 2011 Mortal Kombat video game. He didn’t really have a huge part in the main storyline however. Liu Kang being in Mortal Kombat X will be very interesting if this rumor comes true.

Following spoilers follow in next paragraph:

If you have played the 2011 Mortal Kombat game, you would have known that Liu Kang dies by Raiden. His inclusion could be that he gets revived in Mortal Kombat X somehow, or he will come back as a zombie. Liu Kang already appeared as a zombie in Mortal Kombat Deception.

Spoilers end

The addition of Kenshi in Mortal Kombat X is likely, but Liu Kang is pretty tricky. Although Liu Kang is one of the more popular characters of the entire series, so maybe NetherRealm Studios added him in due to popular demand.

Hopefully Ed Boon confirms or denies the additions of these characters soon so we will know for sure.
