 Hey everyone, I'm Ed Boone from Netherrealm Studios, and we're excited to share the return of a classic character to Mortal Kombat X, Raiden. Raiden's been with Mortal Kombat from the very beginning, and we've had a lot of fun updating him for MKX. And today we're going to give you a taste of all three of his character variations. As the guardian of Earthrealm, Raiden has a long history of conflict without world, so it's only natural that he face off against its current Emperor, Kotal Khan. You have no chance, Thunder God. Thunder blots out the sun. Timber Raiden, fight! The Thunder God variation enhances Raiden's lightning attacks, allowing him to string together longer combos and do more damage. In his Displacer variation, Raiden gains new teleportation moves that make him difficult to contain and more mobile in combat. And finally, Stormlord Raiden can create lightning traps with wide areas of effect that allow him to control the bag of things.
