First we heard of the possibility that Todd McFarlane’s Spawn might be coming to Mortal Kombat X, but now we’ve heard (via a source from VideoGamer.com) that Predator might be a post-launch DLC character in the game.

Things get very interesting, however, as the report also mentions that Predator is coming alongside Colonel Al Dillon from the original movie, who was originally played by the actor Carl Weathers. Best news? Weathers has reportedly given the OK for NetherRealm to use his likeness in the game.

Finally, to add more fuel to the rumor fire, Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon has also been tweeting Predator themed fan art and suggestions for the past few days.

Mortal Kombat X will have a worldwide launch on April 14, across PC, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4.

Do Predator and Al Dillon make sense for Mortal Kombat X?
