In this case, Kratos from God of War Series, and Freddy Krueger from the Nightmare on Elm Street movie series. The first is Kratos from God of War. Liu Kang does a cartwheel kick on his opponent, similar to his first Mortal Kombat Fatality. The undead version of Liu Kang, this costume changes Kang’s eyes to a glowing red colour, his robes have pointy shoulder pads and his arms have a scaly/transparent like appearance. It had that post-apocalyptic look and feel that has pretty much defined the character since his first appearance in Mortal Kombat 3. But seeing it realized in live-action takes the get-up to a whole new level. If not counting the DC Universe characters, Freddy is the second guest character of the Mortal Kombat series. One is “origin story clothes”, which you see with other characters, and another is “street clothes”, which is where I went with Kano.

KANO – There are a couple themes I like to stick to when it comes to alts. Kano is the Terminator, Liu Kang is Bruce Lee, Johnny Cage is JCVD in Bloodsport, Raiden is Lightning from Big Trouble in Little China, Shang is a mix of Han from Enter the Dragon and Lo Pan from Big Trouble, et cetera. Liu Kang is one character that has evolved a lot over the course of the games in the Mortal Kombat series. Although Goro was technically a fully CG character in the film (and therefore not a showcase of a costume in the traditional sense), there is no denying that he looked like he had been ripped straight out of the video games.

Kintaro Goro: Unlocked by beating Klassic Tower with Goro, on Hard, with a Gold rating. Complete at least 15 rounds in an Endless Tower with Mileena. This is the only game to feature the Bell Tower without a stage fatality. Like many other Mortal Kombat games, this series also known by its fatality signature move for each characters. His body was resurrected without his spirit in Mortal Kombat: Deception. Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition and Mortal Kombat Trilogy also had this feature, as well as Mortal Kombat: Deception’s double enemy stages.

Liu Kang’s second bonus costume is based on his alternate costume from Mortal Kombat 2011, and it was the first costume he wore in the Story Mode.

His first fatality references how he killed Roland Kincaid (Ken Sagoes) in the third film. For example, you can select the Erron Black Kutie Icon to gain 55 Koins per fatality performed. I also made his underclothes brown, since it would blend into the darkness or one’s environment better than black does. It should also be noted that Reptile, initially a secret character in the original MK, is on the roster also. Maybe it stems from my superhero interests, but I like iconography that concisely and stylishly identifies a character or the group they belong to. SCORPION – Like Liu, I went the “origin story” route with Scorpion, I wanted to make his body look like he’s just been murdered by Sub-Zero. SUB-ZERO – This was a tough concept to come up with, but what I eventually settled on was that I wanted some way to telegraph the Cyberninjas without using anything cyber.
