This game is the same as Mortal Kombat 3 except for the inclusion of new backgrounds and more charactors (22 playable in all). This version marks the return of Scorpion, Reptile, Kitana and Jade (not to mention the endurance rounds). Hidden characters include Human Smoke, Classic Sub-Zero, Mileena, Ermac, Rain and Noob Saibot (Rain and Noob Saibot are not selectable in any way).The Background so far, Shao Kahn has taken over the Earth Realm by letting his wife Sindel be reborn on Earth to open the way and has stripped Earth's souls. Some souls however, have be protected by Thunder God Raiden and Kahn cannot touch then. Kitana has decided she cannot sit back and let her forced father reap what he has sown. Jade has decided to join her, though she work in her own mysterious way. Reptile has found himself betrayed and seeks revenge. And Scorpion, The Lost Soul Bent On Revenge, may get what he's fought for. He alone may hold a wild card for the Earth Realm. Other Fighters from past tournaments, The Demonic Milenna The Mysterious Ermac, have joined the fray. And believed dead from in the year 1992, Sub-Zero Older brother, The Original Sub-Zero has returned. Each one, has it's own good or evil motis operenda and a common goal. THE DESTRUCTION OF SHAO KAHN!
You start by choosing the type of game:
Players can choose from 22 fighters with different abilities: Classic Sub-Zero, Cyrax, Ermac, Smoke, Jade, Jax, Kabal, Kano, Kitana, Kung Lao, Liu Kang, Mileena, Nightwolf, Reptile, Scorpion, Sektor, Shang Tsung, Sheeva, Sindel, Sonya, Stryker and Sub-Zero. You also have secret methods to allow playing additional fighters: Human Smoke, and Rain.
The game play is the same as the standard fighting-type games punch, kick, shoot, or otherwise injure the enemy until you or your opponent's energy is depleated. The entire Mortal Kombat series is unique in the way that it allows you special finishing moves.

If performed correctly your character will perform a Fatality, Babality, Animality, Friendship, or Brutality.

Three hidden characters in this one. The code to unlock Smoke will unlock Ermac. Other codes will unlock the demonically beautiful Milenna, and the long believed dead Sub-Zero I. Holding down LP, BLK, LK, Run, and the joystick Down and Left or Down and Right, will change Cyborg Smoke into Human Smoke.
The term "Ermac," short for "Error Macro," was first coined during the development of Smash TV. This condition was a rare glitch that would load a level where the player could fight Ermac the ninja from the original Mortal Kombat.
Choosing the second question mark after finishing an eight-player tournament shows all the playable charactors fatalities, friendships, and babalities (with the exception of Classic Sub-Zero).
