IGN has reported from the currently ongoing German Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany in the form of an updated preview of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon! While this offers very little new information, it does clarify a couple of points, firstly information regarding the game's Kreate-a-Figher mode. From the article:

...players will also have the ability to spare their favorite fighters this fate by spawning their own characters: there are at least 14 separate character classes that players will have available to them, with hundreds of choices, making the literal combination of created characters in the millions.

Further notes are made on the Create-a-Fatality system as well as the mini-game, Motor Kombat. It seems Mortal Kombat: Deception's Hara-Kiris will not be present in this game due to the development teams focus on this new feature. Motor Kombat will also feature its own version of fatalities, as seen in the following quote:

Before you even wonder, yes, there will be fatalities within Motor Kombat as well. In fact, we discovered that running into walls or off of cliffs can create some very brutal death sequences. We'll have much more on MK: Armageddon as soon as possible.
