Weird hat is only in one variation it seems, other two he has his regular hat.
His variations are, tempest, hat trick, buzz saw.
Tempest gives him more spin attacks, and lets him use his hat like a shield that flys around him.
Buzz Saw gives him more hat throw attacks.
Hat Trick lets him control his hat throws, throw them and recall it at any point, and can use it to extend combos.

Oh 
I'm hoping Ermac returns. I want my Ninja Mummy back!
Ermac's my absolute favourite MK character. Hope to God he's in MKX.

Dude on testyourmight has all the info up. Not sure if I can link to it because has some scans.
Just saw a scan from the magazine that shows a new stage but it was taken down before I could save it. The stage looks like a military complex with loads of antennas and sattelite dishes. There's also a large building that reads B7. There are jeeps and armed soldiers carrying guns. The stage is at night and looks to be in an Area 57 type location or some type of quarry but there's no way of knowing. My guess is Special Forces location. Also tons of written info but I'm not sure if I should copy it. Sorry I can't post pics but it looks really cool.

That jagged edged hat...
He looks like he's aged considerably. Kinda cool.

With an incredibly lengthy and well told story.
Personally, I thought that the heroes & heroines of MK doesn't age due to Earth needing protecting.

Does he look zombie like Liu Kang in Armageddon

Looks old, does he come with a walking frame?
I like it! Kinda weird about how old he is, though;
I feel it makes him look a lot tougher and more ragged.
Also, that scan I found says Scorpion's found a "new" Sub-Zero to fight.
I assumed that if he was resurrected, he'd look the same as he would as he died. Maybe he got brought back during the time gap?

Maybe that "MKX Sub-Zero is a reincarnated Shao Khan" might just be canon after all!

Ermac is the best "ninja". He needs to be back.
Fighting games can have stories too. MK9's story was quite good.
Nope, he doesn't
What magazine is it? Pelaaja?
From the way they worded it, it sounds a lot more like an assumption than any confirmation.

Its going to be interesting to see how MKX continues the story with the events from MK9.
It is easy to see that the game overall is going to be more mature/serious story wise judging by the Art Direction taken compared to MK9. Looking at previous characters and their new models/art.
Very excited to play through the Story... alot can happen in 20-25+ years worth of story.

Finally a good news about this game. At least Kung Lao is better than those stupid new characters.
Theyre too busy playing KOF97 to care.

Well the elder subzero is dead (killed by scorpion) and the younger subzero was turned into a cyborg in MK9 story instead of this happening to Smoke.
I doubt Subzero is going to be turned back into a human so the new subzero is most likely well.. NEW! I can see why the magazine would assume this, its the answer a lot of people would probably lean towards.

SHOCKING NEWS but still cool

what old, he's probably not even in his 50s. look at his skin, slightly greying hair. that's not old!
There's been some stuff lately that suggests it's going to turn out be the older one, as a couple of the intros between him and Quan Chi have the latter talking about how he has SZ's brother's soul. And remember that the elder one revived as Noob Saibot and thrown into the Soulnado, and hasn't been seen since. (and the last guy to get thrown into a Soulnado, Scorpion came back as the Elder Gods' champion...)

Old subzero/noob got thrown into a soulnado, I figure anything can happen from that.

Has Kabal been confirmed yet?

SOULADO!!?!?!? Didn't even know that was a thing. Definitely opens up a lot of possibilities there then. Interesting..Interesting...
I would imagine Scorpion just listened to MegaDeth's Tornado of souls over and over while inside there

Especially considering Ed Boon is 50 and he looks like this:
That's from 2011, but he hasn't really changed since then.

Yep, Kenshi is definitely going to be in this one.
I'm surprised to see Kung Lao in this game, in fact, I'm surprised to see that most of the returning characters are characters from MK9. I was expecting to see Fujin, Reiko, or Tanya by now rather than Goro, Kung Lao, Raiden, and possibly Jax.
When it comes to Kung Lao, his look leaves a lot to be desired. Although his aesthetics are not the best in this game, he was always a fun character to use especially in MK9, so I'm happy to see his return.

Takes place over the course of 25 years I think.

Great news. Kung is in my top 3 of all time. Sub Zero, Kung Lao, Raiden.

wtf. Did he stop aging at 41?
His eyebrows refuse to be anything but black. His hair plays along.

I think old Kung Lao is pretty cool. The idea anyway. His design could be cooler
