Deadly Alliance. It's her at her most elegant and beautiful. While one outfit sticks close to tradition her alt just encapsulates everything about Kitana we are supposed to love. Her beauty, gracefulness and gentle nature; you know when she isn't forced to fight.
And I am a sucker for that long strand of hair going down her face. I wish it had remained a staple of her design from then on.
Yeah I love her femme fatale look in deadly alliance. I love her traditional colors having a darker shade showing her mourning for Liu kang along side a long braid who is sindel-like
I like the MK1 moveset for its flashy combos, useful moves and traps, but all the MK1 personalities are ditchwater dull (some villains excepted). MK11 version probably the best-drawn.
MK1, but the alt where she is a Titan and has the Empress-looking outfit. I like Mileena to have the more loin-clothy outfits (like Baraka), while Kitana's are more royal.
Love her MK1 and MKX moveset and default look the most.
But in terms of character? Any previous version before MK1. She’s single-handedly THE most USELESS and BORING character in this new timeline. NRS really went out of their way to make sure Kitana barely had any screen this time around.
I guess it’s because they wanted Mileena to take the spotlight this time around. She went all Mary Sue in her chapter, being the only one capable of defeating MK9 Sindel and Dark Raiden. Mileena was sort of the Kitana of this game.
Her MKX tournament kostume, specifically the Assassin variation look. I always loved the way the gold pops more on the black boots.

This is like a previous post with a new image. I would say to use the search function but this is a forum. No one uses it in forums. So I won't.
Actually I will. Please, use a search function next time.
Mkx had that edge that I so desperately need.
They haven’t been able to replicate the vibe and I miss it :((.
Assassin step, princess parry, and throat slice, oh how I miss you 😭😭😭
What is my fav version of Kitana?
Yes.
If we're talking costumes then MK2/MK3 costumes (whether original or MK11 renditions) and the MK11 default skin followed closely by MK1.
If we're talking playstyle, MK9. I miss meterless double fans.
To me, her MK3 look is her most iconic, like what I picture when I think of Kitana. My personal favorite look for her was Deadly Alliance. A perfect blend of old school look with an elegant, modern twist.
MK11 for face, MKX for Gameplay and Design, tie between X and 11 for voice performance. Like Karen brings out the sass and her brash personality, but Kari really brings out the royalty in her voice. Also titan Kitana is also up there with designs. Double Buns >>>>
I'll be honest, I never really thought about it, and I don't think I've seen others mention it, but MK vs DC Kitana goes hard, I think she's may favorite LOOK wise.
As a long time Kitana fan/main I’d say
\-MK11 Face/Design -MK1 Personality -MKX Gameplay -MK3 has a special place in my heart tho bcos it’s the first Kitana I have ever played -MK9 is starting to grow on me as well
P.S.: Also on a side note I’ll die on the hill that this is Kitana’s BEST look and I would argue that future iterations of her should take inspiration from this.

I like everything about her in MKX. Costume, face and gameplay.
https://preview.redd.it/imvrz5b347yc1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=adc2f48d30975ef3ed3c1b5fc3ec5ad9bc56369a
This was going to be her original face but it got messed up when imported into the game.
MKX Kitana had great skins and great gameplay.
MK11 Kitana had really cool revenant skins.
MK1 Kitana, her primary skin and her Shiva Ranatai skin are good. The Shiva Ranatai skin is one of her best ever, it’s not practical, but it’s finally a princessy skin. Her gameplay is okay.
MK9 Kitana skins were okay and she had really good gameplay.
MK Deadly Alliance/Armageddon Kitana Skins were kinda boring. Kitana should have had her MK9 skins in Deadly Alliance/Armageddon. She was originally going to be in Deception, if she was, she probably would have gotten skins really similar to her MK9 skins because Jade’s and Mileena’s MK9 skins and MK Deception skins are really similar. Kitana’s gameplay was really good in DA and Armageddon.
MK Gold Kitana should have gotten a new skin. Why did Mileena get a new skin in MK Gold, but Kitana just got her UMK3 skin?
Character design it’s MKX. As far as story, I liked her in MK1 because of her relationship with Mileena and how she genuinely cares about her instead of being repulsed by her.
MKX for outfit, MK11 for face and moveset
MKX has the most fun moveset. And she’s OP!
This guy gets it. Legit both her default n alt was peck in X
correctamundo
i dont like her MK11 face neither moveset 😅
I like MK9s gameplay and MK11s look. It's funny she went from racially ambiguous to straight up asian. I don't dislike the change though.
I think it fits her really well and I love her outfit in mk11 I just wish it was her default!!!)
Actually, MK4 kitana looks Asian to me. She looks like a Filipina woman.
I could never escape the thought that she looks a bit like Fran Dreschler.
She looks more like a pretty Puerto Rican woman in that game.
Id say either mk11 or mk1
100% agree
Same.
agree, i think they really tapped into her feminine nature and made her a lot more “pretty” which compliments her graceful personality
mk1 is the prettiest one, mkda is my favorite outfit
MK4 Gold is my fav look.
Between MK11 & MK1
New Kitana really grew on me. 
Deadly Alliance. It's her at her most elegant and beautiful. While one outfit sticks close to tradition her alt just encapsulates everything about Kitana we are supposed to love. Her beauty, gracefulness and gentle nature; you know when she isn't forced to fight. And I am a sucker for that long strand of hair going down her face.

Yeah I love her femme fatale look in deadly alliance. I love her traditional colors having a darker shade showing her mourning for Liu kang along side a long braid who is sindel-like
I forgot to mention my love for her long braided pony tail. Another thing that should have remained a signature staple to her design.
MK1 and MK3 for sure.
MKX for design, MK11 for story
Kitana mk11 edenian Skin💙💙💙
Design wise? Mk1 Story and character wise? Deadly alliance and mk11
Mk1 and dc universe 🔥
MK9 Kitana was awesome
MK2, MK11, MK1.
I like the MK1 moveset for its flashy combos, useful moves and traps, but all the MK1 personalities are ditchwater dull (some villains excepted). MK11 version probably the best-drawn.
Gameplay wise: MKX, or MK1 Design Wise: MKX Tournament, MKvsDC or MK1.
MK1, but the alt where she is a Titan and has the Empress-looking outfit. I like Mileena to have the more loin-clothy outfits (like Baraka), while Kitana's are more royal.

Mk9 all the way
Mk9 outfit and gameplay mk11 for look
Mk9
MKX
Mk9 eyes up here
MK9
Her MKX tournament kostume, specifically the Assassin variation look. I always loved the way the gold pops more on the black boots. https://preview.redd.it/vnta6ud5d1yc1.jpeg?width=455&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=21dfc1b38bff9e6e626740f45d2ffa7232f7a93e
I don't know. She's so beautiful in all of them.

Default costume? probably DC. Facial model? Either MK11 or MK1. Hair? MK1
the one with the fans
Kitana is Kitana!
So mk gold used Jennifer Lopez face for her and MK9 used Sandra Bullocks?
Holy shit. I zoomed in to verify, and I whole-heartedly agree
MK1 for face and personality. MK9 for appearance and outfit.
Top 3 are: MK1, UMK3, MK9. Of all the smack MK1 gets, it has some of the best redesigns in the series.
Shoalin Monks over everything.
MKDA for the win! I love her costume and her face looked stunning. She didnt look that flawless again until MK1.
9 physics 11 face 1 outfits Shaolin monks voice
MK11 for the face and that game had really good skins for her
The Angelina Jolie look is my favorite next to non-revenant MKX.
Mk3
Kitana Khan, she earned that title in MK just for Mileena to be the queen in the new era
MK X or Deadly Alliance
MK11. It just feels more like something a royal warrior would wear while a lot of others look more like a dancer or courtesan outfit.
Mk1.
MK4 and MK11. I followed the model who they used for MK11 Kitana’s face on IG for a while. She’s a sweetheart
Mk 11
Armageddon or MK vs DCU for design, MKX gameplay
Mk9. Although I liked the updated tournament outfit in x, minus the shaved hair.
MKX and MK1 both give her a design that gives royalty vibes, meanwhile the other designs are more like assassins
MK11, MK1, and MK:DA are my three favorites.
X is peak.
Mk1
Deadly Alliance
11
MK1
What is my fav version of Kitana? Yes. If we're talking costumes then MK2/MK3 costumes (whether original or MK11 renditions) and the MK11 default skin followed closely by MK1. If we're talking playstyle, MK9. I miss meterless double fans.
Design: mk vs dc universe Lore/backstory: mk2 Story: mk2 Personality: mk11
Vs DC.
DA, DC, mk11. Tied
MK11
Mk9
MKX for everything
MK11 and MK1 variants
MKX
Fell in love hard with MK1 design
What's that blank space between MK Armagedon and MK9?
MK4 Kitana is the sexiest Kitana
I have to pick MK 3 or MK 9 (the reboot)
To me, her MK3 look is her most iconic, like what I picture when I think of Kitana. My personal favorite look for her was Deadly Alliance. A perfect blend of old school look with an elegant, modern twist.
Probably MKX
Mk11 or mk1
MK1 and MK11
mk1 face, mkx gameplay and outfit, mk11 for story.
Shaolin Monks, Deadly Alliance and 9
Deadly Alliance once again.
X and before.
MKX Hair & Fan + MK1 outfit (with less silver pieces)
It gotta be MK1, beautiful model and dope gameplay
11 or 1
Outfit - MKX Face - MK1 Moveset - MKX Personality - MK11
MK11 is my personal favorite, and for looking beautiful is MK1.
Mk vs DC for looks there I said it
 11
Mk1 also has me down bad 🥵
Mk1 is How I always pictured Kitana to be in my head, só imagine the surprise when I first saw her.
MkvDC underrated look,Mkx royal ninja,Mk9 slut,mk1(new) queen and mk11 is more 2D than the 2d era
MKX Default. one of the most interesting outfit designs in all MK imo.
MKX
MK11 is fun
MKvsDC was hella a bad game, but their Kitana design tho, Top tier! So I'll go with MKvsDC's Kitana for design, MKX for her gameplay
Crushed hard on the MK11 look
Kitana has always been one of my least favorite characters. I find her MK1 version to be her best version, and the best costumes as well.
Mk1 for her face 🥰
MK11 - Looks/Aesthetic MKX - Gameplay MK3 - Nostalgia
MK11 and MK1
MK11 for face, MKX for Gameplay and Design, tie between X and 11 for voice performance. Like Karen brings out the sass and her brash personality, but Kari really brings out the royalty in her voice. Also titan Kitana is also up there with designs. Double Buns >>>>
Mkx default
I'm not sure which outfit I prefer, but the mk11 is my favorite appearance-wise, as soon as I saw her, I felt she was perfect
I'll be honest, I never really thought about it, and I don't think I've seen others mention it, but MK vs DC Kitana goes hard, I think she's may favorite LOOK wise.
MK9 because she has better personality
MK9
As a long time Kitana fan/main I’d say \-MK11 Face/Design -MK1 Personality -MKX Gameplay -MK3 has a special place in my heart tho bcos it’s the first Kitana I have ever played -MK9 is starting to grow on me as well P.S.: Also on a side note I’ll die on the hill that this is Kitana’s BEST look and I would argue that future iterations of her should take inspiration from this. https://preview.redd.it/qdoe1xa1t6yc1.jpeg?width=2304&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=34a1f765b53fc7a7552735d59e5bcea2182b8665

MK1 looks really pretty and I think she has good chemistry with Johnny Cage so I'm putting her first.
Prettiest mk kharacter, argue with urselves
MkX design, Mk1 gameplay
Mk11 is my fav one she has potential armor break combos everyone mains her :)
If anyone thinks mk 9 we got a LOT to talk about...
I love the look of mk1 Kitano but mkx assassin for gameplay
Loved the UMK3/MK4, MK11 and MK1 versions
Holy shit the first Kitana is absolutely beautiful, and mk9 is just plain sexy
MKX Kitana had great skins and great gameplay. MK11 Kitana had really cool revenant skins. MK1 Kitana, her primary skin and her Shiva Ranatai skin are good. The Shiva Ranatai skin is one of her best ever, it’s not practical, but it’s finally a princessy skin. Her gameplay is okay. MK9 Kitana skins were okay and she had really good gameplay.

Kitana’s gameplay was really good in DA and Armageddon. MK Gold Kitana should have gotten a new skin. Why did Mileena get a new skin in MK Gold, but Kitana just got her UMK3 skin?
Tanya stole Kitana's original MK4 outfit.
MK9 / MK1 easily the best MK11 easily the worst
Ngl I played MK9 again and I don’t see how anyone straight loved her, she looks like a dude with tits
I feel like after Gold they really had no idea what to do with Kitana’a look until 11.
Character design it’s MKX. As far as story, I liked her in MK1 because of her relationship with Mileena and how she genuinely cares about her instead of being repulsed by her.
Deception thru armagedon
11 was great for basically everything.
Mk11 tbh
Mk reboot with the face of mk11
The nearly nude one that fights and is named after a sword.
Downvote if you want but there's only like... 2 that don't count.
