MK Haziness: MK1 Throne Room

Post by ded »

Did you know that one of the biggest mysteries in Mortal Kombat 1 was lost in time? The Throne Room arena causes tons of rumours and speculations. The pictures on the wall and some columns disappears in random cases. Sometimes the arena is also shorter than usual. To this day, it is unknown whether this was done on purpose or not...


Tell us what you think about this MK haziness? :)

Lol, I play MK pretty much time but never knew about this. Btw, carpet on the 4th picture is different too. Or that just because of the screen resolution?

I never knew about this before. My guess is unintentional bug just like today's game often have texture loading issues or physics issues.

Are the above screenshots taken from the arcade version or a port?

Being a developer means spending countless hours in front of the code. Sometimes developers just need to blow off some steam, so they add something they consider funny in the code.
