I'm not sure if they saw the same thing I did, but I think they are referring to this:



If that's what they mean, then I think they were just seeing Sub-Zero with a new Samurai kind of helmet. Does anyone else see any hint of Shao Kahn anywhere?

haven't seen any hint of shao kahn. i think they just saw it wrong.
well the guy in the samurai helmet could be shao kahn in a new outfit, samurai are from japan and the lin kuai is chinese so i doubt sub zero would wear that

I read that part about them thinking it's Kahn too. But I say it definitely looks like a revamped Subzero. After all let's not forget he's the new grandmaster, and he has to have an all new look and I believe this is it. And it looks SWEEET@!

Actually there is a few pics I can't figure out. Konqrr posted all the pics, however there is one I didn't see on his site, but I didn't go thru them all.

Anyways, in that pic, it is Milleena and someone, perhaps Subbie, but I dunno. He seems huge. Also, I thought I saw Shang, Jax, Goro, and Kang, tho I'm sure I'm wrong, probably just so hyped!

Actually ]0MBAT, I think that the term Samurai is not the right one to use. I think you are looking for the term Shogun. Even though Shogun are like Samurai warlords, there were also Shogun Ninja. To me, Sub-Zero reminds me of Shredder. I don't know exactly why they went for this look. Maybe it is because he's the grandmaster of the Lin Kuei. Then again, the Lin Kuei is a chinese clan of stealth fighters and I don't see how there'd be a Shogun-like influence in Sub's look. But anyway, Sub looks cool and I like his design. Maybe Shao Kahn might be back. We won't know until the game comes out or if new info is released later on before the game's release. I just hope too much info isn't released before the game's release like in MK: DA.

I have to say that Sub-Zero looks awsome... Really nice outfit to show that he is the Grand Master of the Lin Kuei.

In that video I too thought I saw Liu Kang, strange...

I dont know what to think. I downloaded the trailer of MK6 the same guy that is standing behind baraka in the pic I've seen in the trailer throwing what looks like a ice ball simliar to sub-zero ice balls. I won't say because I just know. What is so wierd about it is that the mask of how ever that is doesnt look like sub-zero or Kahn to me it looks like someone new.

Hi there tis is my first post on the board (a little bit late for a 10 year MKer)

Ok you all can laugh at me but I think the guy in the pic is not Sub, I think he is the dragon king reasons:
1.He has a green out fit
2.His skin color...
3.I don't know if I'm right 'bout this but he looks like the one in the ending of Nitara (I don't know what treats await us in the future Dragon King, Vampire people) hehe I can't exactly remember it...

BTW I want Shao Kahn and Blind Kenshi back really bad...
and Hail you Midway...
I think you will bring back what I (we) need. A new great MK with MK2 atmosphere...

In this pic, it looks like Shang Tsung is the one who knocked Sub-Zero off the ledge.

subby is blue that guy is greenish (may be lighting effects)

subby is lin kuei (chinese)
that guys looks like a shogun or samurai

subby hasnt really changed outfits other than he reveals his face and his clothes differe slightly in DA, but his alt costume is his traditional one
