While Mortal Kombat is mainly known for its fast-paced action and brutal fatalities, it also features a deep story filled with hopes, dreams, betrayals, and world-ending threats. I’m Keegan and today we will go through the entire story of all Mortal Kombat games, from the main entries in the game to series to the lesser-known spin-offs.

Un update of this one. Thanks!!
I love how dark raiden isn’t even bad. He’s just mercilessly good.
He's corrupted not evil
lawful good
@@Night-Shade.Nothing corrupt about dark Raiden. Corrupt means that your dishonest and he wasn't dishonest or used trickery. Tainted might describe him better.
@@Luke973T "Tainted" is a good description for him, but I said corrupted cuz in both timelines the life essence of Raiden is corrupted (The devs words). First by Onaga and then in the 2nd timeline by Shinok.
This is a great response. Great way to put it. From Dahshon
I just realized Ermac is such a side character that you can tell the entire story of MK without mentioning him.
damn
They also didn't mention the great Kung Lao's story, which if Liu Kang beating Shang Tsung is canon, gives some hints as to where mk12 will go
@@kingx7137 but the great kung Lao is in Liu Kang ending
@@AlexandreSilva-oj1hg That's why i said if that is canon. If it's not then so be it

Things to know to avoid the world's destruction
1. The elder gods are useless
2. Don't touch Shinnok's amulet
One major story point missed, Shang Tsung originally had won 9 tournaments until he was defeated by the great kung Lao, shao Kahn sent goro to participate and goro become the new champion who killed the great kung Lao and won 9 tournaments until he was defeated by lui kang in MK1
Glad to see I wasn’t the only one to notice!
Also, Shang Tsung once fought alongside other Earthrealm warriors before he decided to group with the bad guys
Then how do kung lou and lui kang come back to life after both of them are killed
@@vincentmartinez222 If you mean the Kung Lao that Goro killed, that is not the Kung Lao we knew from the games. Goro killed The Great Kung Lao, ancestor of the Kung Lao we knew. For Liu Kang, once Raiden accidentally killed him, he has never been resurrected once as a human anymore. He got reincarnated into a Revenant by Quan Chi and joins their side. The Liu Kang we saw in MK 11 is the past Liu Kang that Kronika pulled to the present timeline (present = MK 11). This past Liu Kang's soul got absorbed by the Revenant Liu Kang, and then got merged together along with Raiden to create the ultimate Fire God Liu Kang, the one being Kronika feared.
EDIT : Forgot to mention, Revenant Kung Lao is not The Great Kung Lao. Revenant Kung Lao is the reincarnation of the Kung Lao that was killed by, I believe Shao Kahn. Quan Chi resurrected both Revenant Kung Lao and Revenant Liu Kang to join his side. Same goes with the past Kung Lao, Kronika pulled him into MK 11's timeline.
@@DarchrowTheEnigmau forgot to mention the original timeline. In this timeline, Kung Lao got killed in MK3 by Shao Kahn, then magically come back with Johnny Cage after Shao Kahn has been “killed” by Liu Kang.
And Liu Kang got killed too in MK Deadly Alliance by Tsung and Quan Chi. Then he got “revive” by Raiden Dark magic, however, it only revived his body, not his soul. Thanks for Ermac, who steals Liu Kang soul from Shang Tsung, Liu Kang soul got back and have a battle with his zombie body then win, claiming his body back (although his body was already rotting)
Midway/Netherealm Studios handled the reboot in the best way possible: performing a full reboot back to the beginning and still preserving the storyline from all the previous games. Thank you for putting this all together!
I likes the reboot idea, but no mention of Armageddon in the reboot and I hate the 'multiverse' situation MK 11 brought
@@edymiguel4247 there was a "multiverse" already in Armageddon when Raiden came from a different timeline.
@@edymiguel4247the beginning of mk9 is showing the ending of Armageddon and is the cause of Raiden altering the events of the past in the first place. Did you even play it?
Not multiverse. Multiple timelines@@edymiguel4247
XD?
I like how if the Liu Kang ending becomes canon for MK12, the story essentially becomes full circle with the Great Kung Lao being trained to become the Earthrealm champion who defeats Shang Tsung in the first place 500 years before the events of MK1
Why’d u spoil it man :(
@@samarthkapil6579 why are you watching a video about the timeline then? Go play the games yourself they have been out for a while now.
@@AM-nu2kv its a joke. Also i am a tekken player but I did play mk11 casually.

YOU MISSED A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO PUT KOMPLETE IN THE TITLE
15:14 "Raiden tries to defeat the deadly alliance but the duo is too powerful even the thundergod"
*Shows picture of frost*
lol that confused me too
After watching this video, I now realize that, despite the Elder Gods creating the tournament to keep the realms in check and avoid ressurecting the Great One, they allow outworld to break the rules a LOT
I was about to say, if they're following the 50 year rule, then Liu Kang would be old and dead by mk3
@@Replete_Mummy99the mk 2 tournament was a special case. Win and they win forever without having to defend from outworld. Lose and they get conquered on the spot. They could have turned it down but decided to agree. The standard tournament rules are set to where you cant decline the invite at all if 50 years has passed. Mk3 there was no tournament just the invasion.
Man what a time coming home from school playing MK Deception and Shaolin monks.
Wow I am old, I was coming home from school and playing MK1 🤣
Boy, they’re really good at resetting this franchise every few years and keeping it interesting. Can’t wait to see what they do with this new era with MK1.
The writing and cinematography in these games is super underrated, especially mk9-on
MK will always have a special place in my heart
36:53 I wish that was true, but is not that Sindel didn't get her memories back, the writers deliberately chose to change Sindel whole personality from the original games, in the reboot she was always evil from the start, a two dimensional power hungry evil empress, a female version of Shao Khan, a total mockery of her original timeline version, a strong mother who fought through horde of enemies to rescue her daughter from brainwashing
Shhh, we ignore the bad retcon
I really hate that retcon..
No idea what ur on about that never happened. (I'm in denial)
Not canon btw dont @ me
@@burnedsmackdown4209 Hopefully, so is Fire God Liu Kang.
Just saw the new cinematic trailer for the next MK game. its funny how they decided to call it MK1 instead of MK12 but I'm probably still gonna call it 12 for posterity's sake lol. Definitely excited and thanks so much for this timeline. Its always nice to be refreshed on MK info. Been a fan since MK SubZero days. That and MK 3/4 were my first MK games so its a big part of where my love for fighting games came from. Good times.
that trailer brought me to this, i haven’t played much of the story lately just messing around w homies and needed a good catch up
If you think about it, it makes sense to call it MK1 since the timeline is reset
Well they called it MK 1 for a reason 😂
I dont understand where MK1 (12) is going because why would Shang Sung return like weve seen in the trailer if he was erased from existence by Fire god Liu Kang (its pretty obvious thats the canon ending)
@@pepelarrza3877 idk, but we'll see. They should have a good reason.
Shang Tsung was the original Mortal Kombat champion when Edenia was defeated until the great Kung Lao defeated him in the tournament for the Earth. Then, he reappeared the next MK, older and bringing Goro with him. Goro defeated the great Kung Lao and became the new champion, enabling Shang Tsung to seize the tournament, stripping control of Shaolin monks. There's when Goro starts his winning streak before the first MK.
MK1 was announced after this and the canon ending was Liu Kang's
I'm gonna need the gang to get together and hold an intervention for Raiden. His addiction to the rage has caused too much trouble lol But seriously Great video and even better telling of the timeline. Even someone like myself (a self proclaimed MK junkie since I was a toddler) still find somethings in the story to be confusing at times. This was a very well done presentation on everything especially the filling in on some of the spinoffs I never played (special forces & shaolin monks). Great Job Leaderboard!
Mortal Kombat 1 the reboot came about explaining essentially that the battle between Fire God Liu Kang and Shang Tsung caused a severe rip in timelines and now the universe Liu Kang created and the one SHang Tsung created now exist along each other as well as multiple other timelines where each of the characters from MK 11 defeated Kronika and took her crown.
Kronika is somehow revived or rather, Shang Tsung shapeshifted into Kronika and infiltrated Fire God Liu Kang's timeline to manipulate the fate of the Shang Tsung and Quan Chi from Fire God Lui Kang's timeline into working together to destroy Fire God Lui Kang's timeline to make it easier to merge his (Shang Tsung's) timeline into Fire God Liu Kang's own and make it one. Fire God Liu Kang made Geras the keeper and protector of the hourglass and So Geras warned him that someone was messing with Shang Tsung's and Quan Chi's fate but the hourglass would not reveal the identity of who this person was until very late.
Fire God Liu Kang finds out eventually via Shang Tsung (the one with his own alternate timeline) that he was the mastermind behind the whole ordeal and that he manipulated the Shang Tsung and Quan Chi from Fire God Liu Kang's timeline and that they were just pawns for his grand design. This forces Quan Chi and Shan Tsung (from Fire God Liu Kang's timeline) to unfortunately team up to defeat Shang Tsung from his timeline. This is so fkn confusing with so many turns but if you read this far stay with me babe. So they fight, evil Sindel from Shang Tsung's timeline fights and defeats most of the people from Fire God Liu Kang's timeline and literally repeats a variation of the line she did from MK 9 (which was infuriating and a cheap cop out cause Sindel is MY GIRL FR FR) "Come forward if you dare, I will finish what Shang Tsung could not".......Like really NRS??! Y'all couldn't think of any other creative line?!?
Anyway, Sindel gets defeated by Fire God Liu Kang's Sindel. FG Liu Kang and everyone retreats and Geras tells FG Liu Kang that he stored some serious power away for FG Liu Kang centuries ago that can help FG Liu Knag to scan the universe for other timelines, in case he needed to use it. But if he does use it, FG Liu Kang cannot go back to the timeline that he created. and so Liu Kang used the power to gather everyone from all the other timelines to help defeat Shang Tsung from his timeline and Shang Tsung's timeline comes crashing down.
I hope that wasnt too confusing...its a lot to digest and I hope I explained it correctly
It's great to see this again! I have been playing every single games except spin-offs.

I think it's safe to say the ending where Fire God Liu Kang wins is cannon since he's on the cover of Mortal Kombat 1.
Reading through these comments. There is not a single mentioning of Reptile. I'll always stay loyal to the first secret, and personally the coolest, character in the MK series. It'd be awesome if he reappeared in the new game as a part of the new timeline. Maybe he'll finally be able to revive his lost race. Just give him a win. Please.
He’s our very first Hidden Character ever. Respect!
Same with Ermac
damn bro I guess you're up for a BIG treat
Damn I must be the only person on this planet that has owned every MK game and never played campaign mode ! This video has caught me up to speed and also made me wish I did the story mode !!😢
I remember playing deadly alliance, deception and shaolin monks. Crazy my younger self didnt realize the storyline, just enjoyed fighting games lol
They could honestly make this into a series.
We need an updated version of this. After the release of MK1, it's safe to assume the Liu Kang ending in the Aftermath is canonical.
It's genius really. I hope they make new movies the last one was awesome imo
Mate that was a great timeline of MK. Seriously the best IP out there. Can’t wait for more content through the games and movies 😊
Who’s here after Mortal Kombat 1
Me
Just picked up mk11 ultimate edition and i havent played since mk shaolin munks. I am freakin loving it. And the combos and all that are coming back to me pretty quick. Story mode is awesome too.
I just recently started playing X. The last one I ever played was 4. Talk about rusty! 😅 It’s all coming back to me now, though. Just took a bit. I, too, am loving this game. It is absolutely amazing.
As someone who has played Mortal Kombat since i could hold a controller, even i learned some things from this video. Ed Boon and gang really did an amazing job expanding on the story over the years. And now it's for another reboot.
I wish Netherealm would explore the idea that Mortal Kombat occurs every 50 years. The tournament in the first game occurred in 1992, which means Earthrealm had a tournament in 1942, during World War 2. I want to see THAT tournament. There's also a ton of potential for tournaments in eras like the Old West, Victorian England, and the Golden Age of Piracy.
It’s the guy from the amagi!!
Now with MK one out, the conclusion of this video is funny to me, as not just both endings are canon, but all the other ones as well xD
Loved this video, even if it scrambled my brain a bit with all the information! I played MK11 but that was back when it first came out mostly, so it's good to have a refresher (and a summary of Aftermath since I never played it) with the impending announcement of the next installment.
Speaking of the next game, the characters I'd loved to see make returns from the older games would undoubtedly be Havik, and Hotaru to go with him since they're polar opposites! Above even them though, I'd absolutely love to see the return of Onaga; we've had Shinnok and Shao Kahn make their returns, I think it's high time to let the one true King rule once again ;]
I love that both endings to mk11 are Canon
Turns out both endings are Canon, possibly every arcade ending too.
its amazing what including time travel can do to canon
tbh I like the new origin in MK1 a bit more, story feels like it will gel together much smoother in future games given the current plot....Mileena being a normal sister to Kitana who gets a decease just makes more sense, along with Scorpion and Sub-Zero being brothers who have different morals
Yes I love it so much more
Since the new Mortal Kombat game is on its way and it'll be my first experience with the series, this video was great for helping me get up to speed with what's going on.
I had no idea the story for Mortal Kombat was so involved.
Dude un ironically GO PLAY at least 4 to deception- deceptions campaign is amazing
Hope you enjoy it! I just re-started with MK11 after not playing any of em since the 90s, I'd say the story is actually pretty fun to get into, definitely check it out someday if you find it on a sale, it's very cinematic and looks great, even if has a lot of plot holes.
The biggest issue with this video is the "He must Win" line. It's not that shao Kahn needs to win 10 tournaments, shao Kahn needs to successfully conquer earth realm by bypassing the mortal Kombat tournament. Only then will the elder gods destroy intervene and destroy him. That's what he must Win means
Really had my head scratching, thx for explaining
I didn’t quite know what he meant by that either. Thanks.
Krocnika
Mortal Kombat 1:allow me to introduce myself
BEST RECAP VIDEO FOR MORTAL KOMAT
You should name the title "The Komplete Timeline of Mortal Kombat".
shoutout man growing i knew the story was deep because i just randomly started from deadly alliance
I think it's safe to say from the mk1 trailers that liu kang's aftermath ending is canon lol
Gotta love biggest threat against godlike beings and dimension conquering tyrants is bicycle kick.
Best recap I’ve seen, 😊
Great work with many questions cleared up
Here as soon as the Mortal Kombat 1 trailer dropped for a story recap.
Shaolin monks is one of the most unique entries🙌🏾
What if MK1 is both MK11 endings merging into one timeline and we see a conflict between the forces of powered up Shang Tsung and Fire God Liu Kang. With all the time-manipulation going on, it opens the door for potential splits and merges even more.
That would actually be cool but i dont think shang tsung is the actual villain. Mainly because i think they won't be revealing the villain in the first trailer
@@Sush._. I don't think they did. I personally see this Shang Tsung as a misdirection, because the alternate timeline Shang Tsung is a god just like Liu Kang. We could just be seeing Liu Kang's timeline version of Shang. I mean, unless they just pull another Kronika type out their ass, nothing is on the same scale of power as Fire God now.
Yeah you were right man
@@SuperKidx10x Im a genius
911 calls for bro
Doctor eats an apple to keep away the bro
I’ve watched this way too many times in preparation for mortal Kombat 1.
I was playing Ultimate Mortal Kombat when I found this video (not a favorite, but definitely a guilty pleasure) 👊
Omg the answer to which of the 2 endings is canan in mk11 is awesome
You misspelled "Komplete".
Great vid, love the history of MK..
Thank you.🙏😉
Just this one line i thought was a bit odd :
21:17 "Everything from the previous games doesn't really exist anymore"
But...most of it still exists as it did in the first tournament as you mentioned immediately afterward, its just rebooted , so a few changes .
Holy crap, I don't think I'd ever seen those live-action scenes from MK Sub-Zero before! Had to rewind the video and rewatch that part -- I was laughing too hard to pay attention the first time through.
Keep going you doing best job ❤️❤️🐐🐐🔥🔥🔥
Who else is here after they announced mk1 instead of mk12
I haven’t played a MK since Armageddon and just got MK1 so I needed this lol. I didn’t even know Armageddon was a spin-off
Wow this explains a lot thanks
Something about his voice makes these videos great but it’s nice to know the new world Liu Kang made has endless possibilities for the story
Fun Fact: The word Shujinko means “main character” in Japanese.
Needed this video.
good job man!🤘🏻
That sub-zero mythologies game was cool and had a good idea but the live action scenes were hilarious lol and the extras shows the bloopers and outtakes lol
With the mk12/mk1 trailer now out, its proven that the canon ending is liu kang defeating shang tsung
10:08 ah more than two decades later and this still gets me every time XD
The movies failed us but this would be an amazing TV show Series
LIU KANG WON BABYYYYYYY
W
It’s good to hear Kegan again after he left “top 5 scary” nd “top 10 central dark”
I loveeeee these type of videossss
I didnt understand the whole story but I like how complicated it is.
Kabal lmao but yeah the stories of each game is really good tbh you explained it perfectly 🔥🔥🔥
After seeing the new MK trailer it seems the Liu Kang ending is cannon.
Thanks for updating the title on this video
" enter mortal kombat armageddon "
that game was my introduction to mk and is still my fav til this day 😭
well now its confirmed that Liu Kang actually won the fight.
Thanks for the recap as im prepared for the Imminent reveal for mortal kombat 12 um i mean 1
A bit too quick for me to catch the first time but i love it. My first game was Deception. Then in between that and mk9, or mk 2011, ive only played a small peice of mk vs dc. Then after 2011, i now have MKX, only played mk11 once, not the story. Now they got MK1. Cant wait tbh. But also, not a SUPERfan so probably could wait.
this video needs to be in a history class not just for video games
This is so convoluted 😂 After finishing the MK1 Story line (my second MK since the first in the 90's), SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED. MK 1 makes everything both simple and complicated. And Im here for the whole chaotic ride.
This is so interesting good job
You should’ve made the title “The Komplete Mortal Kombat Timeline”
Haha It's not too late to make the fix @The Leaderboard !
Now that the trailer has been released, we know the canon ending now
A few times during this review I'm reminded of 'The Princess Bride'. "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
Man I love MK ever since I played Shaolin Monks and have been following the lore but I cannot for the life of me ever get behind the retcons and rewrites for some of the characters and events in the game.
Also hang on!
Is it just me or the comic stories not mentioned? If I recall correctly it had a part to play in the whole story of the NRS timeline pre-MK1. Like about the Kamidogu now being daggers instead of relic looking objects back in Deception and explaining how Sub-Zero was "un-cyborged" in X.
I don't even fw mortal kombat, but the story is immaculate. Looking forward to playing the first game.
Both endings cannon🤯🤯
Can’t wait for you to review the mk1 news, Liu kang definitely won
Really enjoyed this, that’s for creating this video! Although I had it rewind so many times because the story got confusing. I think I prefer the original timeline. Less confusing and Sindel wasn’t a villain. Not sure why they made her evil in the new timeline.
Holy moly.... you did a great job..
Omg 😲
I see what you did when you started talking about Mortal Kombat 2. Naming the Kombatants in the order they are announced in the Mortal Kombat theme song 😏
man i love the narrator from amag- i mean theleaderboards
I kinda miss Armageddon. There were some features in that game I liked that were never reintroduce
Mk12 will be a cross between both endings. Kung Lao will train to beat the alternate shang tsung
Awesome. Cool storyline. Cant wait for MK 1 to launch. Well no MK12 then since there's a reset from God Liu Kang
But atleast we know which 1 was Cannon tho 😅 since we see Liu Kang as the God
