UK's The Telegraph has posted its hands-on preview of the updcoming Mortal Kombat (2011). Much of the article is comprised of things we've already read about countless times already. However, they do reveal a few features of the game we've all been waiting for to get konfirmed.For starters, they claim there are 28 characters in the game. 14 will need to be unlocked (Kratos included), and two spots are reserved for DLC.
They also claim each character will have three fatalities, with only one being available at the start and the other two needing to be unlocked.

I saw from the game play footage and the achievement list that the krypt was gonna play a part in this game. I think it's cool, actually. It's not really challenging to have all the characters unlocked.

I'm pumped I have to unlock characters. I hate when everything is already given to me. Unlockables = Replay value

I suppose... but at the same time it sucks when there is unlockables, because you can't just take the game to a friend's house or a party... and for tournaments that means every console used is gonna have to go through the trouble of unlocking all the characters for the tournament. well hopefully the game doesn't have a locked save like Street fighter 4 and other fighting games in the past so you can just transfer the save and not have to worry about it

Unlockables are what make the game interesting. Everything just handed to you is hardly any fun. Some things should be earned, not given. If you hate unlocking things, you're lazy. LAZY!!!

Ok very interesting. We start off with 1 fatality though? Oh well. I'll play through it then. I hope one of Jade's secret fatality is nasty and similar to what Vlad the Impaler would do.

I highly doubt that all of the information is true, considering this is only a review build, however, 28 characters minimum does seem interesting...

rain is for dlc i promiseeeeeeee but he wont be in the starting roster or unlocked roster... i dont mind unlocking half the roster either i think it gives the game a great replay value i hope theres unlockable outfits too for every1, ed boon clearly stated that theres more to the roster then wat u see on the character select screen so maybe theres more to unlock then just 14 of them.

I wouldn't mind seeing Shinnok as DLC his moves and ESPECIALLY his fatalites in MK4 are among my favorites......I do think Rain has a good shot though.

I don't think Shinnok will be available for DLC. During MK1-MK3, he is still imprisoned in the Netherrealm. It wouldn't make much sense for him to be in the game.

Im not going to spoil anything for anyone but I read a few of those intense story leaks on the web and judging from those he has a shot I think....I wish I could go back in time and stop myself but temptation was too much
