Is The Monkey King going to be Chaos Undivided?

[Tanuki Tales]

Just saw a loading screen where the Monkey King has four different aspects, one for each of the Ruinous Powers.

That would be interesting, but we don't know yet. I think this game will be the first official appearance of the King of Monkeys

We don't even know we are getting the Monkey King yet.

Other loading screens note that this is propaganda by the ruinous powers, and is in fact not true.

You can look at data, there can be things like placeholders, etc. Finding a named Id would be pretty obvious. Ogres where already confirmed to come at some point due to an Id, same happened with Grom the Paunch in WH2.

Although if it's just a "leak" then I would be skeptical.

Probably not, it's been confirmed those are Tzeentch propaganda to make him look worse than he really is to cathayan common folks.

Red Duke has had a selection cutscene for years and still isn't playable directly.

It would make sense if he got added in a Cathay centric DLC with Li Dao and Yin Yin. Or an Ind centric DLC, since he's used as muscle by Li Dao against them.

Hopefully he'll be Drycha-like, fighting against dragon lackeys. With or without chaos, I don't care.

Him being some kind of neutral, non-Chaos aligned Beastmen faction would be neat.
