400 points if I recall right. However, I would recommend getting the new season pass (under Spotlight on the XBL dashboard) instead. It may cost 1200 points, but you'll get a discount on the classic skins, Skarlet, and any future downloadable skins/characters too. Was able to get Skarlet for free from doing so, and presumably, you'll be able to get Rain, the classic skins, and others for free as well if you get the new pass for 1200. Pretty good deal, no?
Really? Because it does sound neat and I would be willing to buy the pass to net those rewards because quite frankly I think the classic skins are a bit overpriced. Sure we can get old school fatalities...but the skins are the same for every ninja/kunoichi(yes I know the point of it being classic and all) not even SF4's overpriced costumes were that bad. I shall consider this

Purchased Skarlet and quickly lost interest. I'd rather they release them in waves rather than one at a time. It also doesn't help that Skarlet isn't cool to me at all.
Skarlet's a badass mofo with some of the best fatalities out there. I like how she's just like Mileena, with low damage juggable attacks, but twice as many specials as her.
She has a weak x-ray, so it's best to be used in conjunction with a strong combo, but everything else she's got makes up for it, and I can understand perfectly now what they meant by her being one of the most skilled-based characters. Her best combos definitely ain't easy and take some getting used to.
I'd like for King Jerrod to somehow free himself from ermac and assume his older form. I've also heard the undisclosed character might be a male vampiric character.
Chainsaw gun though? *thinks of one of the bosses from Subzero Mythologies*
If he can actually fight, then I guess I wouldn't mind that.
A vampire from Nitara's race? Speaking of which, I kinda wouldn't mind seeing her again if she has some much better moves/combos than she did in Deadly Alliance.
Not her though I don't think fans myself included didn't really respond well at all to her. I think the idea of a male vampiric character is awesome. Let's just hope he's cool looking with a decent backstory.
I heard the vampiric character thing from the mk online page on facebook.
Also since Shao Kahn is dead his power over those souls such as King Jerrod should be null and void so it would make sense for him to come back now.
Eh, neither did I really, but if they could make her better, then I wouldn't mind seeing her again. But yeah, the idea of a male vampiric character sounds cool too.
And yeah, that's true.
Well regardless of what MK's next mysterious character is, it supposedly is confirmed to be a new character (there goes my hopes for Sareena and such). I kinda don't like the idea of introducing new characters as DLC, with the exception of Skarlet since she was originally a glitch from MK2. Unless it's someone like Tremor or Hornbuckle... Otherwise, they should just wait and release them with new games so they get their place in the storyline and what not, instead of shoehorning them in the current game.
I do agree with introducing newer characters in the main portion of the game but with this one since it's about the events of 1-3 I can see just adding him here. But from here on out since the events are different I'd rather see newer characters initially included.
