Speaking of Mortal Kombat, this is apparently a thing
It's definitely a funny thought but I hope that it doesn't happen

I wonder if Rick and Morty are a petition thingy, too? Sponge Bob? Samurai Jack? Tom and Jerry?...

^exactly
Although I guess they actually "fit" thematically, I wasn't a huge fan of all of the horror movie DLC guests in MKX and "hope" that they eschew that in favor of more classic and original characters
It would probably be cheaper for them and the game will still sell regardless
I'd be surprised if they don't already have "Season 1" of DLC planned already, even though the full roster has yet to be revealed
On that note, I think we're supposed to be getting some more info on Wednesday

It's only because the Ultra Instinct Shaggy meme is getting a 2nd run on social media.

Apparently the Kombat Kast or whatever they were supposed to have today was pushed back to February 5 for weather reasons
Hopefully we actually get another character or two and not some ancillary pre-ORDER stuff lol

EVO Japan starts on the 15th. Hopefully SNK finally gives us some new Samurai Shodown news and gameplay at the event.
EDIT:
Preview of the character customization feature in MKII.

Wazzat, staple characters are always DLC?
Go figure.
I'm looking at you, Cassandra.
(Yes, I'm still salty. No, I won't let it go.)

What a fabulous idea and even better trend that I'm glad to see all fighting game franchises have adopted. I've entirely abandoned Street Fighter because of Capcom's BS bare bones SFV and its multiple, quite pricey DLC packages (pay to play is the way to go!). I remember how awesome it was back in the day (uh oh, I'm officially an old codger) to have to play the game and get good enough to UNLOCK characters. Luckily games have gotten WAAAY less expensive than they were back when all of the characters and modes were included in the final retail package, eh? Oh, wait... |

Side note: It's too bad that the DOA series will likely never get the top female heavy hitters of fighting games into their games (mainly any Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat women). Imagine what people would pay just for Chun Li DLC in a DOA game.

^I personally wouldn't pay more than the standard $6-7. Within a reasonable range (i.e. not $15 lol), something like that would sell ridiculously well.
I have never cared for guest characters in fighters but I've slowly cone to accept that they're now an expectation for major franchises. That said, I really felt that the Virtua Fighter guests in DOA5 were near flawlessly implemented given the mechanical similarities between the two series. I wouldn't mind seeing more of that but unfortunately, VF just isn't appealing enough to draw in attention/buys like other series, even the famously niche King of Fighters.
Given the large number of collaboration costume DLC that DOA5: LR had, I wouldn't be surprised if some of those characters actually made it in as eventual guest characters.
