Mortal Kombat 1 Story Theories SO CRAZY THEY MIGHT BE TRUE



Update: This video was re-uploaded because the original video had errors in it. We apologize for the same.

Story and storytelling aren’t necessarily things that fighting games as a whole put a great deal of stock into, but Mortal Kombat is perhaps the biggest exception to that rule. Over the course of several games and years, NetherRealm Studios has proven that it’s capable of delivering captivating tales in its fighting franchise, and with the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1, we might just be in line for the most captivating one yet.

There’s no shortage of excitement about how its rebooted timeline will twist and turn, and what new wrinkles and changes it’ll add to things, places, and characters that have become familiar to series fans- which, of course, means there’s plenty of theories floating around about that stuff as well. Here, we’re going to go over a few theories that we feel have a pretty good chance of actually coming true.

    I just hope Hanzo is in it and I think with this MK1 they are bring all the color variations of ninjas back.

    Bro this is the same script that IGN used in one of their recent videos, cmon gamingbolt you guys got lazy as hell on this one

  3. Limos Hill

    Backlash from the first version of this video was that bad huh 😂

    Lmao!! This video is a re-upload with the correct pronunciation of Kronika.

    4:33 these are awful and look so out of place. If you're gonna have little snippets during the verses screen, at least tell the voice actors "talk as if you're about to fight", the voice acting is as if they're walking along a beach staring at the sunset. Really bad.

    My theories are General Shao is Onaga’s son and Hanzo is the father of Bi-Han and Kuai and he becomes Noob later on.

  7. i think that be more interesting, to have original scorpion be noob, and original sub just becomes a big baddy that gets heat from new scorpion.

    I haven’t watched yet but my personal theory is that Shang Shung is going to team up with Kronika as the new “Deadly Alliance” and Onaga will be the surprise villain that shows up halfway through the campaign.

    I wonder what will happen if sub zero dies? Does that mean we won’t be having a sub-zero character? Or will be sub-zero replaced by frost? Because we need to have at least one character with ice abilities 🤷🏼‍♂️

    I have a take on who Hanzo is, though I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone else bring it up; I think Hanzo is Smoke. He's already got the tragedy down (really early on, but I'd argure that it counts), and his relationship with his adopted brothers (and theirs with each other, for that matter) is going to be a point in the story.

    So happy this game comes out next month I’m so over the theories lol

  12. Jomael

    There was a clip of smoke saying for the shiri… so we know the clan exists in this game

  13. Coffin Boy

    If it’s a new timeline and considering Hanzo is such a formidable warrior it wouldn’t be too far fetched to say that lui lang gave Hanzo dominion over nether realm. Right?

    SPOILER

    Hanzo will come into this timeline from another one, already having become Scorpion. I hope he's not a dumbass manipulated by someone this time.
