  • There are many characters that unfortunately did not make it on the main roster of Mortal Kombat 1; however, they are mentioned in many intro dialogues and other parts of the game, such as invasion mode and more.

      This Shao is a general who genuinely believes himself to be a freedom fighter and not a tyrant. From his perspective Sindel and now Meleena’s rule works against the people of Outworld. This is because he sees Outworld as a whole to be restricted by Liu Kang’s influence. Who is undermining they’re realms power to favor Earthrealm
      Shao believes that the Royal House is willfully complicit in this because of Liu Kang’s friendship with King Jarred. And so he believes he must usurp the Empire and take control. In this position of power he would then cut ties with Earthrealm. Removing Liu Kang’s influence

      He's much less tyranical and bloodthirsty than his older self and simply wants to Make Outworld Great Again.

    Kai had a lot of namedrops here I'm not surprised seeing as he is rumored to be playable with Travis Scott's likeness
