Modder Opens Up Unplayable Characters in Mortal Kombat X - News

Reddit user XVermillion has made three unplayable Mortal Kombat X characters playable.
The characters - Rain, Sindel, and Baraka - all appear in the game's story mode, but you can't actually play as them in the game, which has led to speculation that that they may appear as DLC characters at some point in the future. XVermillion posted the following videos showing them as playable characters:
He also explained how he managed to make this happen:
"There are other files you can change to get stuff like Rain's name under the health Bar but the only files I modded are in the "Assets" folder I believe; there should be 2 associated with Rain (Rain_A.xxx and another one I can't remember but you can just search the folder for Rain).
Anyway, I backed up the files for Shinnok (the character I'm replacing) and renamed Rain's files to match those associated with Shinnok's 1st costume slot (CHAR_Shinnok_A.xxx and one other, the one that matches Rain's other one) and moved 'em to the folder and overwrote Shinnok's old files with the newly renamed Rain files.
What you see is just me playing in training mode with what the game thinks is Shinnok but is using Rain's model and moveset."
