I don’t have any idea if this is old news but the latest PSM Magazine had 3-4 pages about MKD. Nothing new is revealed, although it has some very interesting info and awesome work!
The 2 last pages featured small pics of ALL the Mk characters, classified in groups (Special Forces, Black Dragon, Edenian, Order of Light, etc) with a short bio/description about each character. They are all connected by different lines that tell us if they are: Enemies, Friends, Relative.
EDIT: The Mag confirms KANOS DEATH and mentions (hints) that SONYA and JAX are in MKD.
They also give us the TOP 10 best Mk Fatalities and their opinions on the other finishers (With a big set of pics).
Here is the translation about the Top 10 fatalities:
***10o BEING KINTARO: (Pic of Shang Tsung as Kintaro in Mk2)
Although you couldn’t play as the 4 armed creature till MKT, it was possible to be Kintaro, very briefly, in part two. Shang Tsung’s secret third fatality saw him turn into the tiger-stripped monster and punch his enemy clean in half. Sweet!
***9o THE KISS OF DEATH: (Pic of Sonya’s MKDA Fatality)
Never snog a Kombat lady, it will only end in tears. If it isn’t Kitana’s inflato-pop peck, its ten-to-twoer Mileena’s razor-sharp teeth. Sonya’s the worst though- in DECEPTION a cloud of purple smoke had you chucking up your own lung tissue, just prior to a merciful boot through the skull.
***8o FLAME ON! (Pic of Scorpion and exploding Mk2 body)
An early MK Scorpion classic. The spectre whips of his mask to reveal a grinning skull, then spits a gob of flame at his opponents feet. They scream briefly, and then explode.
***7o GETTING THE POINT: (Mk2 Kombat Tomb Spikes)
How do you top punching someone into a spiked pit? Easy, by teeing up, then smacking them into Mk2s spiked ceiling. Cleverly, if you pulled down on both joysticks in the arcade version, they slid off
***6o STOMP IT OUT: (Jax Fatality pic of MKDA)
No messing around from Deception Jax- he simply slings his opponent on the floor, then jumps on their head from a height. We’ve seen this happen in the Slung and Lettuce.
***5o LICK IT GOOD:
The ladies probably love Reptile, unless he is using his twelve-foot prehensile tongue to rip off their head and eat it.
***4o FOR THE CHOP: (Pit 3 from Mk3)
Only in MK Ultimate Outworld would somebody build a pit deep enough to provide a fatal drop- and then shove whirling blades in it, just be sure. Its murder to clean.
***3o SPINE ‘IM!: (Sub-Zero Mk1 Fatality)
Simple but effective from Sub-Zero mark one in Mk1: He just tugs his opponents head off- with the spine still attached. This was cut from the SNES version, and replaced by the slightly rubbish icy-shatter move.
***2o UNLEASH THE DRAGON!: (Liu Kang Dragon Fatality MK4)
Liu Kang made up for his stupid cartwheel kick thing by having the best fatality in part 2- turning into a bloody enormous dragon and chopping player two clean in half. Later he learned how to transform into a Mk3 Arcade cabinet. No, really.

1o THIS IS YOUR BRAIN!: (Johnny Cage MKDA Fatality)
As a perfectly-coiffured international movie star, Johnny Cage probably gets his nails done on a daily basis. Pity the manicurist who buffs his cuticles after he’s plunged his fist into another man’s brains, though .
