The character ladder endings set up an amazing scenario: Darkseid in Netherealm with new powers; Shao Khan in the phantom zone, but not depowered and building an army of super criminals; Quan Chi and Lex Luthor forming a deadly alliance between universes.

There was DLC planned for MK vs DC for new characters which are Quan Chi, Kung Lao and Reptile for MK side and Harley Quinn, Killer Croc and Doomsday for DC side
MK VS DC no matter how good it is will never be canon and its non canon,it makes no sense and doesn't fit into the actual mk lore,it's a crossover game,just like marvel vs capcom is a crossover series its not canon either
@@SupportGamin2025 In the aftermath dlc, there is a scene in which Liu Kang and Raiden fight over whether they can trust Shang Tsung or not and is eerily similar to a scene in the MK vs DC game.

Multiple characters in injustice and mk have referenced MK vs DC in dialogue with each other as well (sub zero in injustice 2 for example) Also iirc MK MK2 MK3 MK4 Deadly Alliance (5) Deception (6) Armageddon (7) MK vs DC (8) MK9 MKX (X = 10) MK11 If mk vs DC wasn't cannon wouldn't MK8 be what we know as MK9?
The MK 3D era the the Star Wars Prequels of Mortal Kombat. Three great games filled with a lot of lore and background for the universe. Very underrated and unfairly hated by the people who hold the originals in a high pedestal.
Pretty much, with the NRS era being the sequel trilogy, starting out decent but slowly making the fanbase more divided with some liking the new direction and some absolutely hating it. Also with the new entries surprisingly shrinking the world when the previous installments made it feel much bigger.
I think they could try this idea again, now that DC isn’t stickily seen as a kids or teens fanbase like it was back when this game came out, that severely limited the potential of this game when it came out.
I just found it interest though how most of the MK character tower endings were them becoming DC heroes Sub-Zero become Batman Sonya becoming a green lantern Kano becoming the joker etc. But there really was no winners at all with this game.
Can you cover the real most forgotten MK character sometime, aka "Monster"? I think that's his name, the Scorpion clone that Shujinko fights in Deception, especially because if I remember correctly, it's kind of implied that he's the actual champion of the gods or something like that, or maybe he's being manipulated too, but either way, I always wondered if there was anything more to him haha Good video as always 👍😇👍

While being a long time fan of MK from the beginning!! I'll be 40 in August! I enjoyed MK vs DC. While it did have flaws still enjoyed it and I do play it from time to time on my xbox360. The ending with Sub-Zero becoming a version of Batman was my favorite ending. Until next video have a great day and really enjoy your videos!
I could see Shao-Kahn and Darksied being interested in each other's powers but they would not work together. Shao-Kahn hearing about the Anti-Life Equation, something that would allow him to control every being in the universe would make him jump on that ASAP. Darksied meanwhile, I could see him liking the idea of merging his world with the ones he conquered so instead of having to rule separate planets, he'd just merge captured worlds into his and considering how massive Apokolips and New Genesis are, to the point where Earth would barely be able to displace a lake, every planet he merged his with would likely just become like a small country on his world or even smaller and would be right under his rule. Also, both Shao-Kahn and Darksied are both pretty similar, being gods that essentially live to take over and subjugate everything which is why they couldn't ever get along, they would be destined to fight each other to control what the other has. As for Dark Kahn, he essentially is like the character Access from the Marvel vs DC comics, being a being created from both realities that can merge things from those realities together except Dark Kahn can do it on a much larger scale as he can merge the entire realities together whereas Access can only merge individual people. I know it'd never happen, but if they ever did an MK vs DC vs Marvel, I could just see Access being one of the main characters actively trying to stop Dark Kahn as his entire goal is to keep the DC and Marvel universe separate and likely wouldn't want other realities being involved as well. Could even be interesting seeing Dark Kahn and Access battling via merging different characters together and making them fight, like Dark Kahn uses his Rage Corruption to control his fusions while Access merges heroes to ensure they'd ally with him. Would be a completely crazy and convoluted story but would be cool seeing full on MK/DC fusions as well as MK/Marvel fusions, maybe even get a return of some Amalgam characters like Dark Claw, Super Soldier or Dr. Doomsday. While I can't see them ever doing MK vs DC vs Marvel, I can definetly see them doing another MK vs DC or well MK vs Injustice. DC is a lot more violent and Warner Brothers has both series so at worse you wouldn't have fatalities but if they were creative they could have brutal...well, Brutalities that would just leave the victim as a crippled, broken mess with the excuse being Dark Kahn (I assume he'd come back since they keep mentioning him in Injustice and MK 11) needs everyone alive to make sure the fusion goes completely as planned. It'd be interesting to see a modern take on this idea, I see people more excited about the prospect so clearly there is a potential market there if they play it smart. On a final note, honestly Netherrealm Studios really hasn't fixed their issue with new characters, they still don't do anything with the new ones besides Jacqui and Cassie. Kotal is worthless, D'Vorah is a Mary Sue that just gets to kill fan favorites and all the new villains (and old villains) are worthless jobbers who barely win fights so they're not a threat. The only thing NRS improved was spectacle, everything looks nicer, bigger, bloodier, etc but its far more shallow. The MK world is a lot smaller as everything just revolves around Earthrealm, the Nether Realm and Outworld instead of all six realms in the older games, all the villains and heroes work with each other so there are only two factions and they keep rebooting everything so whatever story they started to work on gets erased. The 3D era made me love MK, the NRS Era makes me constantly annoyed at MK because of all its stupid decisions, where they can't pay attention to continuity, ignore cool storylines for stupid ones, seem to increasingly try to bleed money out of people and make retcons and changes to favor some characters at the expense of others. I think the worst example of this is what they did with Sindel and Kabal, completely reversing their characters in MK 11 like the writers didn't even play the first two games (or the older games). If characters can be changed that drastically, why should anyone even care about this big storymode you made, none of it will matter the next time so why get invested?
For MKvsDC2 they could use the MKvsDC's Arcade Endings In Scorpion's Ending it was said that DarkKhan still exist (somehow as a separate being than Darkseid & ShaoKhan) Also the Final Boss of MKvsDC2 could be Black Lantern Onaga
..... Can i get a remake of this.... Ive been seeing injustice vs mk in my head for a while. And they could not only bring DarkKhan back but other fusions or those versions of characters from the endings specifically superhero subzero and what is basically fire god liu kang
Oh yeahhh I remember the fatalities would pan away and that really threw me off. Like the Batman one you showed he just falls down after being frozen and slammed lol
If only there was a sequel, cause using dlcs for mk in Injustice 2 game. Mortal Kombat is more fit to have a crossover with Injustice. If not, maybe a reboot would do.
My introduction was a MK 1 Arcade Stand up in a run down old movie theater selling tickets for a 1.50 a pop it was sitting in the back out of the way. I was like what the heck is this? I spent 20 hard earn dollars in quarters that day and I finally ripped a spine out. I missed my movie I can't even remember what it was I payed to see but I will never forget the first time I played MK.
What the heck I was literally just watching all the mk movie compilation and I just finished mk vs dc and I jumped on my phone and now this is here quite ironic
I’m not sure if u knew this but in one of the towers of time u have to beat a tower called dark khan which could be a coincidence or a little fun Easter egg
I like this series because it feels good to talk about something that doesn't have to do much with the main continuities. I would like more MK vs DC analysis too because it's important to look at the highest of the highs and lowest of the lows of Mortal Kombat. Thanks for what you do, HBTW. Really amazing content.
i think mk vs dc is cannon because it is mentioned multiple times in Mortal Kombat 11 and Injustice 2 which means Mortal Kombat and Injustice is canon there's even a mention about Joker in Mortal Kombat 1
From what I've heard, the Mortal Kombat side of MK vs DC Universe is canon, as Joker remembers his fight with Scorpion in an intro with Scorpion in MK11
That because joker is a 4th wall breaker he aware of storys canon or not. Like in crossover he remembers spiderman from previous crossover that was non canon to the story. Spiderman didn't know who he was and said never meet he before.
MK vs DC Universe was actually good. Everyone trashes it because of the “fatalities”. But we all knew what it was before we played it. It was rated T. The game was enjoyable.
Thank you! The last thing I need to see is more beloved DC characters turning into bloodthirsty monsters. Injustice did that and I hate it for that. They should bring back Heroic Brutalities for the more heroic MK characters. At least when they face off against an ally.
Yeah, honestly as an MK fan I don't give a shit about the violence. Its mindless and was just implemented as a gimmick to give MK attention back in the day but nowadays other video games, tv shows, cartoons, comics and anime have just as much if not more violence so the fatalities and all that are nothing special. I like MK for the cool worlds and characters. You had all these unique realms that were distinct like Edenia seeming like a paradise, Outworld looking like a barren wasteland, Order Realm and Chaos Realm looking just as the name suggest with Earthrealm having a cool mystical feel to it with only the Netherrealm not being too special but I mean..its hell. You also have cool characters like Ermac who is a collection of hundreds of souls in one body who speaks in a cool voice and refers to themself as We and Us because they are essentially multiple people or Havik who exists solely to cause chaos and breaks his body parts just to have fun or Drahmin who has a mask that keeps his rage in check that has the title of Oni Torturer and fights alongside Moloch, who is called the Oni Destroyer, both titles sounding bad ass. The 3d era as well as the classic era had a lot of cool ideas and characters. The newer games are just about Earthrealm, Netherrealm and Outworld and revolves around the Special Forces, feeling more like G.I. Joe that the cool mystical fighting game it used to be. Plus its constantly rebooting itself and changing things so nothing in the new games ever matters or stays consistent.
It's a shame that this crossover fighting game failed and the concept of Darkkhan could work if both Darkseid and Shao Kahn doesn't trust each other,all in all if Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe didn't happen,then with wouldn't get the NRS games we know today.
A friend of mine is wondering what if trigon and Onaga combined will make a new DC versus mk movie do you think history behind the warrior do you think that be a good idea
@@aleanddragonITA I respect your opinion but I honestly thought the black lanterns would fit well with Shinnok and the neitherealmers like Nekron and Shinnok Joining forces
@@maximusthewolfreborn2118 but Onaga was the one about trying to obtain Immortality and had an Army of Undeads Shinnok wants to conquer Earth because of The Realm's Life (He tried to turn The NetherRealm in a copy of earth multiple times, and even created Human looking like Demons) The Black Lantern wants to End All Life Their Objective don't connects & don't forget that neither them can connect, only the Dead can use a Black Lantern Ring (& even if Batman in Death Metal & Red Arrow/Speedy in NeoDarkside/Earth-Omega Crisis look like Alive they still are Undeads/Semi-Undeads/Dying) so Shinnok as an Immortal can't even use a Black Ring Differently Onaga wants simply conquer All Realms & Become Immortal Also you associate the Black Lantern with Shinnok simply because Shinnok->NetherRealm=Dead/Undead->Black Lanterns
Even The Another Fusion Counterpart Just Like Vegito And Gogeta. The Other Fusion Counterpart Of Dark Kahn Named Shaoseid. And The Names Combination Between Shao, From Shao Kahn And Seid, From At The End Of Darkseid And The Other Fusion Counterpart Of Ultron Sigma Named Sigma Ultron And The Names Combination Between They Change In Swapped Just Like Several Naruto And The Other Japanese Characters And His Final Form Called Sigma Alpha The Powerful Form Counterpart Of Ultron Omega They Are The Most Powerful Final Form In The Video Games Franchises
Just Like In Trivia On The Villains Wiki He Was The Counterpart To Ultron Sigma Both Are The Most Powerful Non-Playable Fusion Crossover Antagonist In The Video Games Franchise Who Want To Take On All The Several Crossover Heroes And Villains From Every Multiverse Franchises
I really did like mk vs dc but the reason I like it is maybe because it was the very first Mk game introduced to me. So not a good start but hey now I am big MK fan
Dark kahn would be perfect candidate for a red lantern or be the Kahn of red lantern Corp now I know why atrocious was so a teptation to hall Jordan in injustice 2
Kinda makes me wonder if they have a crossover between Young Justice and Mortal Kombat, maybe it would take events after season 2, where the next generation of kombatnants (such as Cassie Cage, Jacqui Briggs, etc.) would have a team up with the Team. Now sure what the others would think. But let me remind you that it's more like wishful thinking. But would've been interesting.
I feel like I am on an island with this one BUUUUT I actually liked DC vs Mortal Kombat lol. I know MK is known for over the top gore and there was none of that but it was a fun game to me so I knew who Dark Kahn was :)
I enjoyed the story for what it was. It was pretty standard crossover shenanigans, but it introduced me to MK proper. I felt pretty underwhelmed by Dark Kahn himself though. The two people that made up his being were much more interesting than the fusion himself.

It's a Fusion of Something from DC (Black Lantern Corps) & Mortal Kombat (The Dragon King: Onaga)
You know The Green Lantern Corps right? Their Power is Will
But there are others Lantern Corps with their Emotional Powers
Yellow = Fear
Blue = Hope
Red = Rage
And so on
Black Lanterns are also part of this
with their Power being Death (and their Members are Undead/Zombies)
And Onaga is from Mortal Kombat
He is The Dragon King that ruled Outworld when Shao Khan was still a God
Shao Khan renounced his title of God and poisoned Onaga (so that he could rule Outworld instead)
But this wasn't the end for Onaga as he was going around as a Ghost
In the Original Time Line he was able to resurrect himself in Deadly Alliance & Deceptions
The reason why i think this is a Good Combo is 3
1)Onaga is currently dead and underused
2)Onaga can also resurrect people (but not himself)
3)Onaga wish for immortality could be exploited by The Black Lantern Corps

The 3D era made me love MK, the NRS Era makes me constantly annoyed at MK because of all its stupid decisions, where they can't pay attention to continuity, ignore cool storylines for stupid ones, seem to increasingly try to bleed money out of people and make retcons and changes to favor some characters at the expense of others. I think the worst example of this is what they did with Sindel and Kabal, completely reversing their characters in MK 11 like the writers didn't even play the first two games (or the older games). If characters can be changed that drastically, why should anyone even care about this big storymode you made, none of it will matter the next time so why get invested?
For MKvsDC2 they could use the MKvsDC's Arcade Endings
In Scorpion's Ending it was said that DarkKhan still exist (somehow as a separate being than Darkseid & ShaoKhan)
Also the Final Boss of MKvsDC2 could be Black Lantern Onaga

Knowing that nether realm studio does mortal kombat and injustice it will be nice to see a newer and better version of mortal kombat vs dc
I'd love to see Dark Kahn return. Dude was badass
Dark Kahn didn't even look like a threat
That is definitely not true
More of a threat than Kronika
@@getchaxxx6762 kronika is just a rip off of the ancient one from doctor strange
Dark Kahn is kinda a knockoff of blaze
He looks like a Beta version of Corrupted Shinnok
Im hearing this vid while playing the game after years honestly i like this game
Don't forget that this new entity was merged with one if Darkseid's avatar
My fav mk yt
Amazing how people complained the game was a travesty but now they want a sequel
Dark Kahn starts at 7:51 literally halfway in after a ridiculously long Raid Shadow legends ad and filler
It actually start at 3:35
Good to hear you got good support on your last two vids, you make some great kontent
I don't know why, but to me Dark Kahn just looks like a redesign of Blaze rather than a fusion of Darkseif and Shao Kahn.
Idgaf what they say, this one was a fun af game.
..... Can i get a remake of this.... Ive been seeing injustice vs mk in my head for a while. And they could not only bring DarkKhan back but other fusions or those versions of characters from the endings specifically superhero subzero and what is basically fire god liu kang
so tired of youtubers promoting raid shadow legends... they all say the same...
Oh yeahhh I remember the fatalities would pan away and that really threw me off. Like the Batman one you showed he just falls down after being frozen and slammed lol
3:30 is the jump time for the UNNECESSARILY LENGTHY AD. Your welcome!😉👍
AHH YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!!!
I actually love this game and would love to see a reboot
If only there was a sequel, cause using dlcs for mk in Injustice 2 game. Mortal Kombat is more fit to have a crossover with Injustice. If not, maybe a reboot would do.
Not to mention that the MKvsDCU engine gave birth to both MK9 and Injustice (not to mention the games that came after them).
Great video and awesome retrospective, with out this travesty of a game we wouldn't have the glorious MK and Injustice games of today.
There’s a series called Wha Happun on the Matt McMuscles channel that has an episode on this game, worth checking out if you’re an MK fan.
yo bro, you back that grind 🔥
Unpopular opinion actually looked cool and the whole concept with the rage was cool too. They just dropped the ball on the gameplay and the story.
My introduction was a MK 1 Arcade Stand up in a run down old movie theater selling tickets for a 1.50 a pop it was sitting in the back out of the way. I was like what the heck is this? I spent 20 hard earn dollars in quarters that day and I finally ripped a spine out. I missed my movie I can't even remember what it was I payed to see but I will never forget the first time I played MK.
Dark Kahn vs fire god Liu Kang
What the heck I was literally just watching all the mk movie compilation and I just finished mk vs dc and I jumped on my phone and now this is here quite ironic
Don’t laugh this game was my second mk game
This was my 4th I'm an og
@@BCSTAR954 This was my 5th MK game and now I'm on my 8th...I wonder what the future holds for the MK Kommunity 🤔
@@PlanetNateGaming my first was MK4 , Deadly Alliance, Deception, MK vs DC Universe, MKX, now MK 11
@@BCSTAR954 Trilogy, Deception,Shoalin Monks, Armageddon, MKvsDC and everything since...MK makes me feel old as I've played it for 21 years (I'm 27)
@@PlanetNateGaming well I'm be 27 in November so we're close to the same age so we're basically mk OGs
I hope that dark kahn becomes a dlc character soon because his design looks cool.
Jesus christ how much did raid pay you longest Sponcer I ever seen lol
The way Raid is being memed is on another level
History behind the Raid: Shadow Legends
@@_Amit_Sunil facts lol
After deadly alliance this was the game that brought me back into the mk games then mk9 made me a bigger fan
I’m not sure if u knew this but in one of the towers of time u have to beat a tower called dark khan which could be a coincidence or a little fun Easter egg
Scorpion's Arcade Ending mention that Dark Khan still exist (as a separate being than Darkseid & Shao Khan ''somehow'')
Now with the popularity of injustice and new mk series I would love to see a mk vs dc 2 maybe this time they could get it right
It'd be cool if you could do more history ofs about more Tekken characters
They should do a mkvsdc 2 but this time have the blood and gore that mk game should have.Also give the game a bigger roster.
I actually wouldn't mind it. I think with more effort and a better roster it can work
That list for blood explains why everyone screams and eyes glow before a fatality
And I just finished watching all the cutscenes yesterday
Ha that Be a fusion mod for Dragon Ball Z Budokai and Tenkaichi if Darkseid and Shao Kahn would do the fusion dance or use potara earrings
I want to see him fight Ultron Sigma. 2 Boss Fusions from not great crossover fighting games.
& then both(/all 4) merge into
Dark Ultron Sigma Khan
5:32 where’s that from or is it just a really well made dc animation on UA-cam if so where can I find it?
I had a fever dream about this guy being real
I like this series because it feels good to talk about something that doesn't have to do much with the main continuities.
I would like more MK vs DC analysis too because it's important to look at the highest of the highs and lowest of the lows of Mortal Kombat. Thanks for what you do, HBTW. Really amazing content.
i think mk vs dc is cannon because it is mentioned multiple times in Mortal Kombat 11 and Injustice 2 which means Mortal Kombat and Injustice is canon there's even a mention about Joker in Mortal Kombat 1
From what I've heard, the Mortal Kombat side of MK vs DC Universe is canon, as Joker remembers his fight with Scorpion in an intro with Scorpion in MK11
That because joker is a 4th wall breaker he aware of storys canon or not. Like in crossover he remembers spiderman from previous crossover that was non canon to the story. Spiderman didn't know who he was and said never meet he before.
It be cool if Warner Bros make a Mortal Kombat and DC Universe Crossover animated Movie
Dark khan for DLC
HBTW can do the other few Malibu comics characters please. Also that Skeleton guy from MK Deception.
Dude you make the ads longer each time I think this one was like 100+ seconds
Dark Kahn was WORSE boss ever to fight!
MK vs DC Universe was actually good. Everyone trashes it because of the “fatalities”. But we all knew what it was before we played it. It was rated T. The game was enjoyable.
Thank you! The last thing I need to see is more beloved DC characters turning into bloodthirsty monsters. Injustice did that and I hate it for that. They should bring back Heroic Brutalities for the more heroic MK characters. At least when they face off against an ally.
Yeah, honestly as an MK fan I don't give a shit about the violence. Its mindless and was just implemented as a gimmick to give MK attention back in the day but nowadays other video games, tv shows, cartoons, comics and anime have just as much if not more violence so the fatalities and all that are nothing special. I like MK for the cool worlds and characters. You had all these unique realms that were distinct like Edenia seeming like a paradise, Outworld looking like a barren wasteland, Order Realm and Chaos Realm looking just as the name suggest with Earthrealm having a cool mystical feel to it with only the Netherrealm not being too special but I mean..its hell. You also have cool characters like Ermac who is a collection of hundreds of souls in one body who speaks in a cool voice and refers to themself as We and Us because they are essentially multiple people or Havik who exists solely to cause chaos and breaks his body parts just to have fun or Drahmin who has a mask that keeps his rage in check that has the title of Oni Torturer and fights alongside Moloch, who is called the Oni Destroyer, both titles sounding bad ass. The 3d era as well as the classic era had a lot of cool ideas and characters. The newer games are just about Earthrealm, Netherrealm and Outworld and revolves around the Special Forces, feeling more like G.I. Joe that the cool mystical fighting game it used to be. Plus its constantly rebooting itself and changing things so nothing in the new games ever matters or stays consistent.
It's a shame that this crossover fighting game failed and the concept of Darkkhan could work if both Darkseid and Shao Kahn doesn't trust each other,all in all if Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe didn't happen,then with wouldn't get the NRS games we know today.
This game was fun with friends and the story was funny
*Raid Shadow Legends Advertisement begins
Video begins @3:36
I must restore balance to this timeline.
3 whole minutes man fuck..
A friend of mine is wondering what if trigon and Onaga combined will make a new DC versus mk movie do you think history behind the warrior do you think that be a good idea
Black Lantern Onaga*
@@aleanddragonITA I respect your opinion but I honestly thought the black lanterns would fit well with Shinnok and the neitherealmers like Nekron and Shinnok Joining forces
@@maximusthewolfreborn2118 but Onaga was the one about trying to obtain Immortality and had an Army of Undeads
Shinnok wants to conquer Earth because of The Realm's Life (He tried to turn The NetherRealm in a copy of earth multiple times, and even created Human looking like Demons)
The Black Lantern wants to End All Life
Their Objective don't connects & don't forget that neither them can connect, only the Dead can use a Black Lantern Ring (& even if Batman in Death Metal & Red Arrow/Speedy in NeoDarkside/Earth-Omega Crisis look like Alive they still are Undeads/Semi-Undeads/Dying) so Shinnok as an Immortal can't even use a Black Ring
Differently Onaga wants simply conquer All Realms & Become Immortal
Also you associate the Black Lantern with Shinnok simply because
Shinnok->NetherRealm=Dead/Undead->Black Lanterns
Wait, I thought MKvDC was partially canon, at least for Injustice -- The Kombatants in Injustice talk about MKvDC pretty candidly.
tbh, raidens MKVDC look is my personal favourite look of his.
I feel if they made a reboot or sequel it would be good as the DC characters can play like Injustice and MK characters play like new MK.
Even The Another Fusion Counterpart Just Like Vegito And Gogeta. The Other Fusion Counterpart Of Dark Kahn Named Shaoseid. And The Names Combination Between Shao, From Shao Kahn And Seid, From At The End Of Darkseid And The Other Fusion Counterpart Of Ultron Sigma Named Sigma Ultron And The Names Combination Between They Change In Swapped Just Like Several Naruto And The Other Japanese Characters And His Final Form Called Sigma Alpha The Powerful Form Counterpart Of Ultron Omega They Are The Most Powerful Final Form In The Video Games Franchises
I wouldn't mind an MK vs DC 2 now that Netherrealm isn't in the rut it was back in 08.
Just Like In Trivia On The Villains Wiki He Was The Counterpart To Ultron Sigma Both Are The Most Powerful Non-Playable Fusion Crossover Antagonist In The Video Games Franchise Who Want To Take On All The Several Crossover Heroes And Villains From Every Multiverse Franchises
Access is looking on from his 25 year exile...
I really did like mk vs dc but the reason I like it is maybe because it was the very first Mk game introduced to me. So not a good start but hey now I am big MK fan
Shao khan escapes the phantom zone then MK9 starts
Dark kahn would be perfect candidate for a red lantern or be the Kahn of red lantern Corp now I know why atrocious was so a teptation to hall Jordan in injustice 2
dark khan was hinted with a return in injustice 2 but I doubt it will really happen in injustice 3
A Leak talk about a MKvsDC2 Game that has a Some sort of Crossover Mecchanic with MK12 & Injustice3
So He could return there, maybe?
Dark kahn has the power to cause incursions essentially
Kinda makes me wonder if they have a crossover between Young Justice and Mortal Kombat, maybe it would take events after season 2, where the next generation of kombatnants (such as Cassie Cage, Jacqui Briggs, etc.) would have a team up with the Team. Now sure what the others would think. But let me remind you that it's more like wishful thinking. But would've been interesting.
Dude dc vs mk is really nice and darkkhan is a mixture between darkside and shao khan
I feel like I am on an island with this one BUUUUT I actually liked DC vs Mortal Kombat lol. I know MK is known for over the top gore and there was none of that but it was a fun game to me so I knew who Dark Kahn was :)
I enjoyed the story for what it was. It was pretty standard crossover shenanigans, but it introduced me to MK proper. I felt pretty underwhelmed by Dark Kahn himself though. The two people that made up his being were much more interesting than the fusion himself.
Remember the Superman ground pound over and over 😂 TIL you died
Ah Everything that was leading up to injustice
I remember asking for this about a year ago LOL KAAAAAAAAHHHNNNNN!!!!!!!
7:52
Start of Dark Khan segment.
I wouldn't have mind seeing dark Kahn as a dlc character in Injustice 2
