Kano is the leader of the Black Dragon crime cartel in Mortal Kombat 2011. When last seen, Kano was frozen solid by Sub-Zero. Well, Kano looks ready to square things with Sub-Zero in Mortal Kombat X. 

The photos show three versions of Kano. The fighter will use wrestling moves and has a Flying Knee special attack.

Over the weekend, a new clip from Mortal Kombat X was released that revealed Raiden will be in the game, too. It shows Raiden combos and the finishing consequences.

The new clip is NSFW because of its graphic violence.

In July, Warner Brothers announced that Mortal Kombat X will be released in 2015 on the PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.

Warner said gamers will have a brand new experience with the latest edition of the popular and long-lived Mortal Kombat franchise.

"Mortal Kombat X combines cinematic presentation with all new gameplay to deliver the most brutal Kombat experience ever, offering a new fully-connected experience that launches players into a persistent online contest where every fight matters in a global battle for supremacy," Warner said in the statement.

Ed Boon, creator of the game series, said gamers and enthusiasts will be able to see the fighters at the video game trade fair Gamescom next week.

Gamescom will be held in Cologne, Germany from August 13 to 17.
