The game’s roster consists of 25 playable characters at launch. Along with series veterans including Baraka, Raiden, Scorpion, Sonya Blade and Sub-Zero, and others such as Skarlet, who returns from the 2011 reboot, four new fighters were introduced, three of whom are playable. Firstly, Kronika serves as the series’s first-ever female boss character, who has powers over the flow of time, and had been supervising the events of the timelines since the very beginning.
