Just my two cent, but I think Geras is the canonical choice. He’s the only fighter on the roster we haven’t played as or fought up to this point in the story.
Can we take a moment to appreciate how realistic they were running up and down the stairs? Some of them were actually looking at the stairs as they were down so they won’t fall. 😅
Love to see Liu Kang at 20:38 smiling. It‘s just so wholesome after all he went in the MK games that he now got a happy ending and props for his role, knowing that he has done his role right and succeeded
@@chiefjpac3149 yeah, I like how genuinely nice Johnny is in this game especially after Kenshi saved his life, and for once things ended on a pretty high and hopeful note with no one dead (except Sindel but then again not really since she’s just rooming with jerrod in Ermac), they all deserved it after 3 games of suffering and pain
20:29 is so heartwarming for me. Liu kang being my absolute favorite character since i was little and seeing him actually feeling joy and relief in the end is just a beautiful thing.
He looks like he’s done better than Raiden when he was a god and many had to be sacrificed for Earthrealm’s defenses and here is one of Liu Kang’s people thanking him for enriching their lives instead of treating them like pawns.
@@Praechi and on top of that, he's a lapdog of the incompetent Elder Gods. He didn't have any time to spare for luxury and needs to be ready to do their biddings 24/7. Roughly, Raiden is probably in the underdog level of gods hierarchy, just a little bit above Rain, a little bit under Shao Kahn. No wonder he spent his semi eternal life in bitterness and depression. Liu Kang, however, is a Titan. The Elder Gods themselves is his lapdog.
20:29 I love how Liu Kang is truly happy from the bottom of his heart after hearing this. He loves having Johnny, Raiden, Kung Lao, and the others as his allies. All he’s doing is relishing in his role as Earthrealm’s protector and being himself, and he loves knowing after everything he’s been through, his friends love nothing more than to be his friend too.
I really love the fact that Liu Kang made time to sit and have dinner with the champions (and then abandon them when the time came to pay the bill). If there's one thing this game does better than its predecessors at, it's depicting a warm and wholesome dynamic between the Earthrealm champions as allies and friends. The banter and dialogue between them says a lot about how far they came since when they first met Liu Kang and trained at the Wu Shi.
What a lovely place I could imagine seeing the world's most despised villains suffering for eternity It's beautiful if only it was ruled by a good guy.
I am surprised to see so many villains who were once pure evil try to help heroes but I remember this is a new universe and timeline so I guess we will all need to keep an open mind of who will be evil and who won't.
Scorpion nemesis is Subzero Liu Kang nemesis is Shang Tsung Raiden nemesis is Shao Kahn I feel like u can’t have an mk game with all of them in there and not have them have some sort of fight or feud
The guy who plays Shang Tsung is awesome. And he's distinct enough to be a new iteration of him but still bears a striking resemblance to Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa's portrayal, from facial expressions to cadence.
All those alternates are so damn cool. Tarkatan Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade as Kano, female Johnny Cage, freaking Goro as Shao Kahn and Shao Kahn as God-damn Johnny Cage. You can tell they had a ton of fun just thinking of what combos to make.
20:38 i hate the idea of mess with timeline almost every game but that moment made the series for me That sincere smile of Liu Kang makes all the things he has to pass since Deadly alliance worthy
I like how theres a good virtuous shang tsung and he has 5 seconds of screen time all because when he helped the player and turned his back to the evil shang tsung his entire skeleton got ripped out of him by one of simple strongest looking spells evil shang tsung had, like you dont even need to be weak or dying for it to work you just need your opponent have their back turned on you to essentially kill them with zero effort how stupidly op.

I hope that the MCU will use this method in Avengers Secret Wars by bringing multiverse variants of Marvel characters including those from What If? such as Zombie Captain America if they want to bring the hype back for their fans.
Bro, this is gonna be one of the coolest endings in fighting game history. Literally any of the main roster can be chosen for different cutscenes im guessing because itd be weird if say li mei did the same moves as general shao. And the amount of different fighters you face off against is amazing. Im definitely picking shao because i like the idea of him working with liu against shang and quan. Plus, it fits because he was the final guy who made it to the top of Armageddon in mk9
I really like that MK has the boldness to permit itself to have happy endings, even the tower endings are wholesome when they had to be instead of the old edgy and over the top endings we used to see
And they all tie in together leading into the story expansion. So we might see Onaga judging from Shao and Reiko's endings. Reiko even mentions in a dialogue that he tamed Onaga so we'll see.
The mere fact that the Writers of NRS have been able to link MK11 endings to MK1 story speaks volumes of pure ingenuity. Mortal Kombat is the game that keeps giving. And man this is just mind-blowing
@@rynemcgriffin1752 if every ending is canon, Titan Shao will conquer every other timeline. He's much stronger than Shang Tsung, he knows soul magic and can grow more powerful than anybody in all the timelines. It's just bad writing.
this made me cry ngl. This game has came so far, and only get better more you play. Only thing that hasn’t been tainted by overdoing it with movies and cartoons, perfect
Been playing fighting games my whole life and I absolutely love everything about this new story, from klassic, to 3D, to new era, all get their new perfect roles/story/purpose. This game was a love letter to long time fans of the franchise and its about damn time a good AAA title had some heart put into it, its a great year for fighting game fans
I kind of what to see how each heroic version of the villian characters (Shao Khan, Nitara, Kano, Quan Chi) plays out like maybe the good verison of Shang is that timeline's Raiden
@@juangabriellopez4475Fujin is a woman this time. The giveaway is a few dialogues mentioning "Raiden's sister" but the name is never mentioned. Possible future DLC👌
We got Johnny asking Kenshi if he has money then Kenshi just throws the other two under the bus states that the host should pay and Johnny pushing the bill towards Raiden. Yep, typical friendship move.
Marvel will get a fighting game and netherrealm studios and wb would made a deal with disney to make a marvel fighting game with injustice engine and they would plan making marvel vs dc fighting game in the near future as ed boon talk in some few interviews that he like to make a marvel vs dc game
That said, it doesn't make sense how weak he was to lose to anyone but Liu Kang (who seemingly looks nerfed as well, if you remember how strong he was when he first became a God).
After how they rehashed MK1 to 4 there was no way they were going to rehash MK Deception just to get booed yet again by the fandom for lack of originality.
Aesthetically I would have picked Raiden as the final victor to this whole storyline,as Raiden was the beginning of this tale and his interaction with Liu Kang in the end of the second timeline was amazing. And this would have been a nice send off for Raiden’s character offering a new storytelling.
@@SAMUELMEZALHSAlumnithe first was y'know, mk 1 all the way to Armageddon but 9 was a soft reboot with that medallion, and then this is another soft reboot with the hourglass
The fact there's even a selectable option for DLC characters in the roster is honestly cool. Reminds me of when we first got to pick three fighters to fight the final boss in World of Light in Smash Ultimate, how people wrote their own stories and came up with their own reasons for the fights they chose. Replay value and healthy encouragement of fanfiction for the win!
As a Havok fan, I am extremely happy with how this game ended. Originally when I saw the trailers and I was thinking of the plot I thought they would psych us out with Shang Soon and shao Kahn being villains and be revealed to be Havik and I'm glad that seems like that's where they're going to be going with the new plot. I hope they just don't do a fake out Dark Raiden again.
We got to pick ANY FIGHTER in final chapter, plus a DLC selection? Imagine Homelander, Omni-Man and Peachmaker just happen to join Liu Kang final battle?
if there is any justice in this world if you select peacemaker for the whole trip up the pyramid "Do Ya Wanna Taste It" will be blasting in the background
Omni Man will just fly through everyone. Homelander will mow everyone down with his laser eyes. Peacemaker will go right past enemy defenses because no one will see him.
Btw, for anyone who doesn’t get why Peacemaker would slip through enemy forces unseen, is because he’s played by the never-seen-before creature John Cena.
Been watching a couple of the "Final Boss Fights" and it is insane how many different combinations they came up with. Yeah, there are some overlaps, but there are just so many different combos shown off that it is clear the "future content" is going to be insane fi they have shown what combos are possible already.
They did Armageddon right. I didn’t think that was possible. They actually managed to redo the events of the worst game and do it well. Color me impressed.
How? Nobody cares about who dies here because there's infinite number of them in the original Armageddon it was a big battle between different characters not copy paste of each other
@@AshtinTaylor-xk4nw yes they had the chance to make villains righteous and heroes evil They didn’t even do it , NRS sucks they have no good new characters either
You know, if I got to that point, I might play as General Shao and fight alongside Lord Liu Kang against Shang Tsung and Quan Chi, you know what I’m saying? Rewrite the tale.
A truly awesome final chapter, in not only coming full circle, and allowing you to choose whoever you want of the playable cast, but it also making it look like everyone was important in it, even dead people! Even NON playable characters like Sonya. I hope that future DLC Mortal Kombat specific characters like Quan Chi will come along the relative updates for this chapter, so one can play as them too in it.
At 14:20 I just realized the music score here is the same in the original Mortal Kombat movie where Liu Kang confronts Shang Tsung towards the end of the movie.
I dunno why but I'm glad this Liu Kang is the Liu Kang. Like it feels like going to a new school but the one teaching is a familiar face so you have a sense of safety while being around somewhat new faces and I love the direction this new saga is going. I enjoyed every second of the story. Love the new light and roles each character played that were sort of different from their previous ones. Everyone in the games playable roster had a perfect amount of storytelling given and I just have to applaud Mr Boon for making such an awesome game ❤️🙌😁
I like how it straight up just raiden/lei mei, Johnny Cage/havik, UMK3 Cyber Smoke, Sonya/Kano Female reptile/Khamelon, Kenshi/Rain, to takeda, cassie, Jacque Brigs, and kung jin, to jonny cage/shao kahn, dark raiden/kung lao, frost, to a test your might on a melina clone, then geras/quan chi, female ermac, then to the deadly alliance match, then classic jax getting a drop the hammer refrence from lord havik YES
This is an amazing ending, being able to pick your final fighter from the roster as good guy Titans (Lol Shao and Shang Tsung) in a reference to armageddon against random character mashups is so much fun. And the replayability too! I loved seeing Liu Kang thank Shao or Shao going “Nice work Kitana!” After killing the Kombat Kids
I doubt it, seeing as how these characters are basically just the characters you play as in the main roster if you hacked the game and changed their code to use the special moves of another fighter.

Fun fact: all the enemies you face in this level are random. You can play it again and ve fighting completely different enemies.

And from what I’ve seen, the only one who isn’t random is Cyber Smoke.
@@rashawn71there was a female khameleon in supers playthrough. Just finished it last night

16:45 The End
Was not expecting Kreate-A-Fighter Armageddon
I gotta say this battle of the Multiverse was amazing we need Avengers secret wars to be exactly like this 🔥🔥🔥
Same thing i was thinking gotta be as ambitious as this
I want to see Tobey Spidey finally meet high jackman
@@iancruz6617 a lot of rumours confirm that they’re gonna meet in secret wars
@@ilyaslb5814 I hope they do. It's been plan since 2002 but fox pulled the plug last second for wolverine to show up in an alley seeing them meet.
This is bad
So basically the main villian is Shang Tsung from MK 11 Aftermath Evil Ending and that makes it Canon now
That said, it doesn't make sense how weak he was to lose to anyone but Liu Kang (who seemingly looks nerfed as well, if you remember how strong he was when he first became a God).
What makes you say this is that Shang Tsung?
Not the same Shang Tsung.
@@rafaelguerra9608 leak says that was Shang Tsung disguise as Kronika
Yeah it's only MK11 Shang Tsung posing as Kronika
Very lame 🙄🥱
I was hoping that Onaga would return.
After how they rehashed MK1 to 4 there was no way they were going to rehash MK Deception just to get booed yet again by the fandom for lack of originality.
Onaga is gone rip.he's never coming back again
There will never be a better mk than mk8
instead we got a Shang Tsung and Quan-Chi, A Deadly Alliance part II.
@@TheDragonninja1983yup instead we got shang tsung again
Aesthetically I would have picked Raiden as the final victor to this whole storyline,as Raiden was the beginning of this tale and his interaction with Liu Kang in the end of the second timeline was amazing.
And this would have been a nice send off for Raiden’s character offering a new storytelling.
Yesss exactly Raiden and Geras are the only 2 picks that make senee in the final fight
Which is the “second” timeline?????
@@SAMUELMEZALHSAlumnithe first was y'know, mk 1 all the way to Armageddon but 9 was a soft reboot with that medallion, and then this is another soft reboot with the hourglass
I picked Liu Kang thinking I’d lead the fight, but it turned out to be another Liu Kang with OG Liu Kang leading me lmao.
I picked Liu Kang thinking I’d lead the fight, but it turned out to be another Liu Kang with OG Liu Kang leading me lmao.
The fact there's even a selectable option for DLC characters in the roster is honestly cool. Reminds me of when we first got to pick three fighters to fight the final boss in World of Light in Smash Ultimate, how people wrote their own stories and came up with their own reasons for the fights they chose. Replay value and healthy encouragement of fanfiction for the win!
I don't think they have any dialogue after defeated Shang Tsung
Whoever names him John Kahner deserves a raise
Something funny about Goro coming back up and pulling both Cages down
Hot Cage too 😳
Also Goro punch Ninja Mime Johnny in the nuts and throws him of the platform like in the first movie.
from movie references
Looks like this variant of Goro learned his lesson from the first movie.
As a Havok fan, I am extremely happy with how this game ended. Originally when I saw the trailers and I was thinking of the plot I thought they would psych us out with Shang Soon and shao Kahn being villains and be revealed to be Havik and I'm glad that seems like that's where they're going to be going with the new plot. I hope they just don't do a fake out Dark Raiden again.
9:22 *This is one of the dumbest alternate Shao Kahns/Johnny Cages I've ever, and I freakin' love it.*
This makes me emotional on so many levels. MK has been an integral part of my life ever since its inception. Can’t wait to play this.
4:05 I love how they all carefully and slowly walk down the stairs.
12:19 look at scorpion
😂😂😂
looks kinda goofy ngl
Safety first
Can you imagine how embarrassing it is to trip and fall to your death in this scenario? 😭
The idea of Havik being the next villain is insanely exciting for me, Havik is one of my favorite MK characters and this game has done my boy justice.
7:56 F for Ninja Mime!
8:10
You can't fight in blinding rain.
*Proceeds to fight in blinding rain.*
Finishing the game with scorpion is really Justice to his character and Liu Kang respects him totally happy about Scorpion
We got to pick ANY FIGHTER in final chapter, plus a DLC selection? Imagine Homelander, Omni-Man and Peachmaker just happen to join Liu Kang final battle?
if there is any justice in this world if you select peacemaker for the whole trip up the pyramid "Do Ya Wanna Taste It" will be blasting in the background
Omni Man will just fly through everyone. Homelander will mow everyone down with his laser eyes. Peacemaker will go right past enemy defenses because no one will see him.
Homelander is just an accuse to transport superman into the MK universe
@@RedfoxjackI'm going to do this. LOL.
Btw, for anyone who doesn’t get why Peacemaker would slip through enemy forces unseen, is because he’s played by the never-seen-before creature John Cena.
Been watching a couple of the "Final Boss Fights" and it is insane how many different combinations they came up with. Yeah, there are some overlaps, but there are just so many different combos shown off that it is clear the "future content" is going to be insane fi they have shown what combos are possible already.
I suspect Generative AI is behind this
Just when you think you've seen it all, Ed Boon cooks up something new and even crazier.
😂New.
They did Armageddon right. I didn’t think that was possible. They actually managed to redo the events of the worst game and do it well. Color me impressed.
Midway Mortal Kombat Armageddon >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> NRS mk 1
@@SultanSancar-xx4ycabsolutely not
@@rockycuro7737you’re probably 15
How? Nobody cares about who dies here because there's infinite number of them in the original Armageddon it was a big battle between different characters not copy paste of each other
@@maxhall7832 if I was, then a 15 year old would be smarter than you
I bet the devs had the moment of their life while working on this ending. Boss told them to create their wildest imagination with the characters
A really cool way to give you many choices who saves the multiverse, but imagine if it was someone like Baraka doing this lol
i watched dashies let’s play and wanted him to choose him in the final fight lmfaoo
Armageddon nostalgia
All they do is rip from Midway nothing original comes from Netherealm
@@NAMEKDENDEdo you expect anything different from ed boon’s leadership
@@AshtinTaylor-xk4nw yes they had the chance to make villains righteous and heroes evil
They didn’t even do it , NRS sucks they have no good new characters either
I remember as a kid I dream of a first person game of that where you clash the OPPONENT.
@@NAMEKDENDEDidn’t they turn Geras into a good guy?
7:28 gyaaattttt
Imagine actually joining Shang Tsungs side in this when he's trying to take over the multiverse...
Havik from chaos realm was the best continuous character for MK. They know the job very well.
After Takeda we can get hyped for the expansion!
You know, if I got to that point, I might play as General Shao and fight alongside Lord Liu Kang against Shang Tsung and Quan Chi, you know what I’m saying? Rewrite the tale.
I was planning on doing the same thing.
A kindred spirit! I would do the same for the other villains as well.
I’m putting Baraka in the spotlight, he will be a jobber NO LONGER!
Anyone putting Rain on the table?
I’d love to see someone make a playlist of every characters version of the Armageddon chapter
Me too
I want to see Nitara 😍
They went above and beyond for this story mode
@@GilbyMinaj choose a better character
It gives me the nostalgia of Armageddon it is gonna be the best story mode ever
A truly awesome final chapter, in not only coming full circle, and allowing you to choose whoever you want of the playable cast, but it also making it look like everyone was important in it, even dead people! Even NON playable characters like Sonya.
I hope that future DLC Mortal Kombat specific characters like Quan Chi will come along the relative updates for this chapter, so one can play as them too in it.
This was the best mk campaign I ever played, love how they let you choose your character, and a happy ending to suffice
22:12 Havik says "look at him"
The guy in the blindfold: >:0
At 11:40 i played kenshi for the final chapter, and man i can tell you that revenge is a dish best served cold.
At 14:20 I just realized the music score here is the same in the original Mortal Kombat movie where Liu Kang confronts Shang Tsung towards the end of the movie.
Good Shang/Quan fighting their evil selves was epic
Just so they can die from their own hands😂
Goro with 4 hammers is terrifying. The callback with him and the 3 Johnnys are hilarious.
I dunno why but I'm glad this Liu Kang is the Liu Kang. Like it feels like going to a new school but the one teaching is a familiar face so you have a sense of safety while being around somewhat new faces and I love the direction this new saga is going. I enjoyed every second of the story. Love the new light and roles each character played that were sort of different from their previous ones. Everyone in the games playable roster had a perfect amount of storytelling given and I just have to applaud Mr Boon for making such an awesome game ❤️🙌😁
I swear this man be coming in so fucking clutch
I like how all the Kombat Kids all got One shot by Kitana lol
The mashups they came up with are fantastic. John Kahner especially, if only Terminator was in this game too.
Johnny would be a better Kahn of Outworld than Shao tbh
I like that Armageddon is like a battle of create your own characters.
Thanks for not censoring the ending like everyone else. This ending is giving some serious Ultimate 3 vibes.
6:23 YES, CYBER SMOKE LETS GOOOOO
Depending on the character you will face different exponents, for example: raiden+kung lao or li mei+sub zero
9:40 with the John Kahner 😂
I like how it straight up just raiden/lei mei, Johnny Cage/havik, UMK3 Cyber Smoke, Sonya/Kano Female reptile/Khamelon, Kenshi/Rain, to takeda, cassie, Jacque Brigs, and kung jin, to jonny cage/shao kahn, dark raiden/kung lao, frost, to a test your might on a melina clone, then geras/quan chi, female ermac, then to the deadly alliance match, then classic jax getting a drop the hammer refrence from lord havik YES
This is an amazing ending, being able to pick your final fighter from the roster as good guy Titans (Lol Shao and Shang Tsung) in a reference to armageddon against random character mashups is so much fun. And the replayability too! I loved seeing Liu Kang thank Shao or Shao going “Nice work Kitana!” After killing the Kombat Kids
If you told me Mortal Kombat would involve a multiversal timeline battle, I'd call you crazy. Yet here we are.
This takes kicking your own butt to a whole new level
Scorpion doesn’t even make a victory pose after beating the Guard of Thunder, my man just runs away 😂
2:07 is cool reminds me of the Og Armageddon picture of all the characters but without Blaze flexing in the back
Sweet heavens, the Multiverse never gets a break.
Crazy how this entire war resembles MK Armageddon
I’m hoping these combination characters will one day be playable.
I doubt it, seeing as how these characters are basically just the characters you play as in the main roster if you hacked the game and changed their code to use the special moves of another fighter.
14:21 When liu talks to shang on top of the pyramid we hear the soundtrack from the first mk movie !!! Wow!!!
20:22 never thought I’d see MK get this wholesome but here we are lol
