Shang Tsung and Raiden Playable, Classic Sub-Zero

Post by Gambid »

The Brazilian website IG published a article about the upcoming Mortal Kombat, based on what the author, Gus Lanzetta, saw on E3. He even had the chance to talk with producer Hector Sanchez who revealed that Shang Tsung and Raiden are going to be playable in the next Mortal Kombat game and that the Sub-Zero who we have seen is actually the classic one. He is Sub-Zero we saw in Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero and in Mortal Kombat 1 (1992).

For those of you unfamiliar with the mythology of the series, the classic Sub-Zero is killed by Scorpion during Mortal Kombat 1 and later returns as the corrupted Noob Saibot. Sub-Zero we know from the post Mortal Kombat 1 story is actually the younger brother of the original Sub-Zero.

Click here to read the article. Due to the fact that most of you probably don't speak Portuguese, here is a link to the translated article.

We especially like the screenshots in this article!!!

I hope that means the younger Sub-Zero will be a cyber-ninja!

That doesn't mean anything yet. The younger Sub-Zero might still be in the story, might appear as an alternative costume, might even be a separate character, might not show up at all or even get killed, ....

We will just have to wait and see.

I don't believe that they will turn him into a robot, may be the elder one at some point. This will unfortunately annihilate the whole Noob Saibot thing :(

Good riddance about Noob Saibot, it was a silly joke that went on far too long.

Since we already got a "female Sub-Zero" they can easily make a robot who does freezing. And then probably Smoke and Cyrax can stay in human form.

Can't say that I agree about the joke thing :)

I always liked Noob Saibot. He was definitely one of the mysteries of the Game: hidden Character in Mortal Kombat II, 3, UMK3 Arcade, MK4 Home, MK Gold, MKTE and MKD. Also present in MK Shaolin Monks.

Yeah Noob Saibot is pretty cool. And though I like the Younger Sub-Zero, it would be awesome to have a robot version. Though if this game is like most MK's, we wont know what happens in the end until the next game.

I think that we will know a lot. We knew what happened at the end of Mortal Kombat VS. Dc Universe. And the new game follows the same approach of story telling.

But even if we don't know the ending, meaning we will not know the outcome of Shao Kahn's invasion, we will still know everything that happens in between.

I Was Thinking About IT Today That IF We Want To Play As ShanTsung In His Arena He Shouldn't Be Sitting On The Throne Like MKII With Shoa Kahn Last Level

I am sure that the team will consider this. They did back in Mortal Kombat II but not in Mortal Kombat Deception. We will see :D :D :D
