In a surprise to absolutely no one, Ed Boon revealed via Twitter last night that longtime veteran of the Mortal Kombat series, Kano, will be returning for Mortal Kombat 11.

One of the rare times I can say this without trolling… #KanoKonfirmedpic.twitter.com/g52d8bYncM

The Black Dragon merc sports a little more hair this time around, and this time around, his likeness appears closer to that of the late Trevor Goddard when he portrayed Kano way back in the Mortal Kombat movie.

In addition, during the Brazilian MK11 event, it was revealed that Kano will have an Brazilian exclusive Cangaçeiro skin. For those not aware, a cangaçeiro (which is not a pirate) was a coastal bandit in Brazil during the late 19th and early 20th centuries that sported leather clothing and hats, carbines, revolvers, shotguns, and a long narrow knife known as the peixeira.

So, in other words, it works perfectly for Kano.

Mortal Kombat 11 will drop worldwide on April 23rd for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and the Switch. The UK, however, will get their Switch version a few weeks later on May 10th.
