OK. DANMIT I HAVE THE PROFF THATS IT BARAKAA, and i will explain, first off that is his outfit from the movie, the black one, that explains why they put that weird outfit on him. there goes your answer.

And about the blades not being on the seond alt outfit baraka, if u look at the left baraka, that one doesnt have his blades either. they simply didnt implement the blades on those test pictures.

thats why the release date is in OCTOBER because they havent finshed implementing everything yet dummys, and his teeth look like baraka and his skin tone dumbass, there is just a glow in the picture on second ones face, midway is trying to play with your mind. cause when sub zero is fighting mileena in one of his pictures, he looks exactly green, i realize it was a glow. look at sub, he is green too. it doesnt mean shit.

Scorpion's real face is a demonic skull, yet you see his face in human form in his masked ninja outfit. Ermac is supposed to have glowing green energy as a face, yet he too looks human in his masked ninja outfit. So the the same can be said for Noob..

heated debate; sorry if i caused any sort of confussion or anger. But up to this point i still don't know how to tell if its one or the other...maybe these pictures will help.

THE BOOTS, THE COSTUMES, THE FACES...JUDGE FOR YOURSELVES...ITS A FORUM WITH OPINIONS! So post ideas NOT claims

I think to say it's definitely one of these characters one way or another is pretty stupid. It really could be either one, so just chill and wait till we get more info.

OK, let's look at this sensibly. Here are some possibilities it could be.

1) Baraka
Baraka was originally concepted to be a ninja-like character, not resembling any other character. That would probably be where the costume would come from if anything.

2) Noob Saibot
I doubt it is Saibot, but because the costume's all black, Saibot has to come up as a possibility in most peoples minds.

3) Scorpion
I'm sure at least one person's said it was Scorpion in an alternative outfit. I really don't know about that. Maybe a Shirai Ryu attire? I wouldn't object.

4) A new character
I like the idea of it being Baraka's brother or something, thus justifying the slight differences.

I am probably wrong, but I think it is rain. He has his face revealed, yet part is ripped off. He has a dark purple on his chest and gloves. His costume has no spikes coming out, so it is not baraka. Also If you look closly you can see that the collor of the mouth area is different than the top of the face, so part of the face has to be ripped off.That is my opinion.

P.S.: Plz dont get mad at me, I do not want to fight

And how is it a ninja costume? Because he has his head covered? That makes it ninja? It pisses me off that people spread BULLSHIT.

Hey hey easy man....For all we Know it could be noob, I mean look..his face is similar to Baraka, but not THE SAME...If it is Baraka (which I think it is) his alt costume seems to have his old face.. and last Time I heard, Noob wasn't human was he?

It is Baraka. Please move on your wasting your time debating it is Noob. I tell you to blow the pic up on your PC and you will see. All the Noob idiots only have that it is a black outfit. Well i'm sure Baraka will look fine in black. It is him.

I think that it could be either, if you remember, in MK4 Noob Saibot had an alternate costume which showed him as having grey skin and sharp teeth so it could be him or it could be Baraka.
