It’s important to remember that although there are plenty of signs that indicate that NetherRealm Studios is working on Mortal Kombat 12, we don’t know for sure what their next project even is. Ultimately though, we have to take every leak with a grain of salt. With regards to Cetrion, it was apparently stated by r00000r that she was a “new female monster character” whose name started with “Cet” and ended with “n.” Of course, we already knew about the “Cet” part due to the beta data mine leak.Īs of right now, it’s currently unknown what r00000r means when they say “see you next year.” Are the developers not going to reveal Mortal Kombat 12 until 2023 or is the game simply releasing in 2023? Going back to r00000r’s track record with Mortal Kombat 11 leaks, he was previously able to correctly reveal details about Cetrion (newcomer), Kollector (newcomer), Noob Saibot and Shang Tsung. His moveset has consisted of using throwing stars as projectiles, teleports, flip kicks, shoulder charges and he even uses a mockup of Shao Kahn’s hammer. Reiko has served as a general in Shao Kahn’s army and has also been part of Shinnok’s Brotherhood of Shadow. There’s a heavy implication that Reiko desires to become a successor to Shao Kahn. It seems that Reiko has developed into something of a fan of Shao Kahn’s since then. However, this theory was eventually proven false when both Shao Kahn and Reiko appeared as playable characters in Mortal Kombat Armageddon. Stating that Reiko is “back” would certainly be an interesting choice if all of this was just made up.ĭue to Reiko’s ending in Mortal Kombat Gold, there was a fan theory that suggested that Reiko was actually Shao Kahn. Reiko’s only other playable appearance was in Mortal Kombat 4 (and Gold), the game he debuted in.Īs such, Reiko isn’t exactly the most popular fighter in Mortal Kombat history. Notably, Reiko hasn’t been playable or even at all relevant since Mortal Kombat Armageddon. “Ah, Reiko’s back,” suddenly said r00000r in a random GameFAQS thread. Keep in mind that we’ll revealing a potential leak beyond this point. Based on r00000r’s wording, it’s heavily implied that this fighter will be playable in Mortal Kombat 12.


It seems that r00000r has returned once more to name a character from Mortal Kombat lore that we haven’t heard in a good while.

Before Mortal Kombat 11 was officially released, a self-proclaimed leaker known as “r00000r” was able to correctly call unrevealed details about Mortal Kombat 11.
