Looks like the 22-year-old franchise has its first homosexual character.
According to Gay Star News , the new playable character for the recently released Mortal Kombat X is King Jin and it seems clear that he's gay.
This is based on a piece of video evidence, and was later confirmed by cinematic director Dominic Cianciolo on Twitter . The first clue can be seen in the cut-scene shows below, where the dialogue appears to make King Jin's orientation plain. At one point, King Jin refuses to train in Shao Lin and Raiden responds, "They care only about what is in your heart. Not whom your heart desires."
Cianciolo later Tweeted:

Some folks won't be able to play due to their religious beliefs.
It's MK. They were screwed in the first place haha.
Screw their beliefs, this guy'll do his finisher up their bums
He'll be the first character to be happy upon hearing the announcer tell his opponent to "FINISH HIM"! LOL
Huh. The sad thing is, I know someone who won't like this character after knowing this. Even though he currently loves playing as Kung Jin.
Gayest thing I ever read…
Queers are not my peers.
Fabulous.
Fabulous Rainbow…
Awesome!

Only idiots would have issue with a gay character.
Gay or not, it's still packed with MK fun.

Exactly. He is a good guy and a badass too.
so no comments about beating up a gay person?
Finish Him! Spitality! Now I need a shower from typing that.
I don't see the big deal with this. Doesn't affect how the game is played. People need to grow up and stop complaining!
GAYTALITY.
You guys know that's actually a thing, right? :p
Satan is hard at work.
God bless my fellow brothers in Christ who know what I'm talking about
begone with your fairytails of horsesh*t from here
HELL…
I'm gay, so suck on that. I'll definitely check this character out when I get the game.
Cum on me bro…
Is his sexual orientation going to make him any better or worse as a fighter? I doubt it.
In this sort of game I'm not sure it makes any difference.
FECAL FORNICATION FATALITY!
Gay make him stronger because he eat cock not pussy…
^he speaks from experience
I love eating cock(chicken) meat…
I don't really see why it's so necessary to have a gay character in Mortal Combat.
No one gives a shit about sexual orientation in a game like MK.
Like really… are we suddenly pretending Johnny Cage is straight all of a sudden?

is them trying to be progressive just wandering but i guess its really that big of deal really but it would be just a bit weird to start with cos this would be a first but i guess you would forget about it after playing for awhile, although idk how comfortablei would be if he did a gay finishing move that kinda stuff does make feel a bit uneasy
happy gaming
