Continuing the celebration of Rain's release on the Playstation Network and Xbox Live, NetherRealm Studios have sent us over several pieces of concept art and illustrations featuring the malevolent Edenian traitor.

The art work allows us to appreciate the different changes and various details in Rain's costume design as well as a couple of illustrations from his Arcade Ladder Ending.

In addition, Mortal Kombat's Community Manager, Rigo Cortes, has released via his twitter account the fifth Episode of the MKast (Series 2), which he accurately calls: TheRainKast.

The new MKast features well known NRS team members talking about Rain's design, his DLC popularity, the development of the sound effects used for his special moves and more.

Rain is the third DLC character to be released and he is available on the Playstation Network for the price of $4.99 and Xbox Live for 400 MS Points. The fourth DLC Kombatant is set to be unveiled this Thursday at ComicCon.
