Its because every game the guest kharacter has sold the most so they decided to go with more guest but leeatherface is a terrible choice. Should of went with freddy again for freddy vs jason n alien vs predator. Leatherface doesnt make sense for this game with variations

Texas Chainsaw Massacre has been irrelevant for years now. Nobody fucking wanted him.

Would have rather had Spawn dammit

The reason is because there is a new Texas chainsaw massacre movie coming out next year called Leatherface and WB wanted to help promote the movie by putting the shitty character into a highly successful and popular game. Hence the reason we miss out on another MK character so a shitty movie can get some more promotion to ultimately earn WB some more $$$.

The real question should be why Bo over Fujin ?

And I am glad they picked him over the Raiden wannabe.

They are probably saving Fujin to be the good god in MK11 since Raiden turned all dark and shit.

I am not trying to get people to like or accept the character but I think people might not be aware of how iconic he is. Hate him please, I don't care but to say he is irrelevant and that nobody wanted him or likes him is false. Considering how often those movies are shown on t.v, how they just made one in 2013 (it was bad tho) and are working on another one now, he got a huge reference in Clarence when they mimicked his chainsaw dance, countless other nods and references in other forms of media, there is a band named after him, etc. etc. Oh and around Halloween time and Halloween events and such when those people are running around with those fake chainsaws...that's because of Leatherface lol

Like I said, I am not trying to get people to like him or even accept him, I don't care about that, but lets not say silly shit please ;)

I really hope he does the chainsaw dance at the win screen.

Not many here because this forum is dead all the time, except of course when there's an uproar like this. But I have seen many people say that KP2 could reignite interest if it had a certain wind god or chaos cleric.


I have kept on playing because I still have characters like Reptile & Mileena to play along with newcomers like F/T, Kotal and D'Vorah to fully get used to. Then there's Goro to consider and if he ever got a Kintaro skin well then more to consider.

Netcode isn't great but it's not unplayably bad for me (Why on earth would I accept a yellow or red bar?) this announcement might slow me down from playing it though which already wasn't often because of the PS4 being in another room instead of my own.

It's also a major blow to all the hype and interest I had in the game. Tekunin is the only thing in this pack that has me interested right now. Bo is nice and all but nothing really grabs me right now however I'll give him a chance and see what they do with him.

As for the abomination nothing will be done (what could be done won't be done) to get me to play it and no thanks to your cash grab of a horror character.

Maybe the skins will be better but little faith on even that.


Agreed on most of the accounts, and from what Ed is saying, there's supposed to be a lot of skins for the newcomers although I doubt that now lol. Oh and the ping bars don't mean shit, I've had connections that feel similar to offline on a red bar, and underwater matches on green bars. It's all fucked lol

They probably want to keep him exclusive for MK11 in which fujin will have an important role. Or not wink

I don't believe Fujin is being saved for some sort of grand plan. I don't even think he'll be in the next game honestly. Even though a Dark Raiden story means Earthrealm absolutely needs new protection, and who better to have than Fujin?

But even though it makes total sense for him to appear, I doubt he will. It made perfect sense for him to be in this game and where was he? In story for a few minutes then never seen again for reasons unknown.

I look forward to waiting another 4 years for Fujin not to show up again.

Exactly. Almost everyone thought he was a lock for MKX, it just makes no sense for him not to be in this game. The stars aligned and nothing fucking happened, so I doubt he will be in the next game. This was the perfect opportunity to make great use of the character and reintroduce him to the franchise and they failed on epic proportions.

Everyone said after MK9 "Just wait, Fujin will be in the next game" then what happened? Now after he wasn't in the initial roster, and out of 8 DLC characters and he STILL didn't make the cut, I just don't see it happening for MK11. He's not a priority for NRS and he's not on their radar. A five minute story cameo is about as good as it's going to get for the character. They've been doing the same shit since MK4, it made perfect sense for him to appear in the next game and he never did, and I expect the same exact thing to happen.

While I'm uncertain as to his future, now all I know is that I have 4 years to bug the absolute shit out of Ed Boon about him. And on the plus side, both Chard and Vogel seem to really want him to be included in the future so that's at least a plus.

lol definitely. You know, it seems like a lot of the other devs on the team really seem supportive of bringing back older characters, but after Boon denied the Encyclopedia being made/supported I really think it might be his decision by not bringing back the fan favorites. It just seems like he has a bigger say in things than we realize.

Fixed. Definitely a shit-ton more than who wanted fucking fat-assed Leatherface.

I'm fat too so I'll step in. I'm not sure how his gameplay will be in reality. But Leatherface is my favorite out of the 3 dlcs. Jason was a joke. Shitty everything outside Machete style. Freddy was a good idea poorly executed. They both have been over saturated. Last Freddy movie was ass like boom headshot type ass. The remake to Jason was decent. But Texas ended with Michael Bay making some good ass modernized tcms. I'd rather have him over the other 2. Leatherface > Myers > Jason > Freddy
