** Similarly, [[Word of God|Ed Boon]]'s [http://twitter.com/#!/NOOBDE Twitter] update on September 10, 2011 contained [http://twitpic.com/2n1by5 a picture] of a single leg, clearly belonging to a female character. Many guessed either a redesign for Sindel or (judging from the symbol on the loincloth) Sareena (an [[Implied Love Interest]] of both Sub-Zeroes and an [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]/[[Ascended Extra]] from ''[[Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero|Mythologies]]''). Others guessed that was it Skarlet, a rumored character from ''[[Mortal Kombat 2|2]]'' believed to be encountered when selecting between the blue Kitana and the purple/pink Mileena. The latter school of thought was ultimately correct, with a character known as Skarlet (originally known as "The [[Lady in Red]]") making her debut in ''9'' as DLC. The fact that [[Word of God|Shaun Himmerick]] mentioned in an interview that "hidden characters that didn't exist, we're gonna make sure they exist now" makes the notion of this being an [[Ascended Glitch]] very plausible.
** In ''[[Mortal Kombat 4|Gold]]'', the [[McNinja|Lin Kuei]]-turned cyborg Cyrax [[Suddenly Ethnicity|was revealed to be]] [[Ambiguously Brown|dark-skinned]] in his ending despite his clan being based in China. Cue the fan theory that the Lin Kuei kidnaps and enlists members into their ranks. Again, ''9'' lends credibility to this; Cyrax's bio states that he's Motswana and was recruited to join the Lin Kuei, while Smoke hails from Prague (as in, the Czech Republic).
** Finally, the development that {{spoiler|the younger Sub-Zero [[Unwilling Roboticisation|would be turned into a cyborg]] instead of [[Heterosexual Life Partners|his best friend]] Smoke [[For Want of a Nail|in the new timeline]]}} counts as this for some. In fact, [[Wild Mass Guessing]] on
* A somewhat meta example: it was suspected almost from the very start that the Sniper Update for ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'' was more than it appeared. Valve had mentioned in passing that they didn't want to see servers flooding with the single class that was being updated, since the players hated that situation so much. When people noticed the Dead Ringer in the spy's hands on the blog, it became nearly a certainty that the Spy would be getting updated at the same time. It was also suspected that Jarate was not just a joke, but there wasn't much of a basis for that suspicion.
** Jarate is considered a case of [[Sure Why Not]]? by [[Unpleasable Fanbase|some]]. This may also be the case with the Scout Update unlocks which resemble suggestions from the forums too much to be coincidence.
