I didn't even know there was another Mortal Kombat in development. Still, I think it's odd Ermac would be a featured piece of art, since, IIRC, he was originally a glitch in the game. I suppose he's become a major character, then?
Ermac, Goro, Sonya Confirmed for Mortal Kombat 9?
Posts on the Midway forums with some convincing evidence bring about the question.
Days ago, user AdrianJames on the Midway Forums posted a few different images supposedly taken from within Neatherealm Studios, the headquarters of the developer of the upcoming title, Mortal Kombat 9.
The images (pictured below) show a few different characters in the game, including some who have already been revealed. The big surprise here are two pieces of concept art picturing Ermac and Goro, as well as a character select screen that includes Sonya.
If you analyze the images, the same person is pictured in all of them, off to the side. Because the character art of Scorpion and Sub-Zero match what we have already seen of Mortal Kombat 9, the other shots of Goro and Ermac are more believable.
Sonya is also believable as the character select screen matches what has been seen before, and Sonya's art style coincides with the other characters on the screen.
The images are available below for your consideration.
