The sinister Shang Tsung, enraged by his previous failures, unleashes deadlier fighters from Outworld, including the infamous Shao Kahn, Sindel, and Quan Chi.

Meanwhile, Johnny Cage, a cocky Hollywood action star, is pulled into the war alongside Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, and Kung Lao. As Scorpion and Sub-Zero‘s legendary rivalry reignites, new alliances are formed, and fatalities are bloodier than ever.
