Mortal Kombat is an American media franchise centered on a series of fighting video games originally developed by Midway Games in 1992.
The original Mortal Kombat arcade game spawned a franchise consisting of action-adventure games, a comic book series, a card game, films, an animated TV series, and a live-action tour. Mortal Kombat has become the best-selling fighting game franchise worldwide and one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time.
Controversies surrounding Mortal Kombat, in part, led to the creation of the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) video game rating system. Early games in the series were noted for their realistic digitized sprites and an extensive use of palette swapping to create new characters. Following Midway's bankruptcy, the Mortal Kombat development team was acquired by Warner Bros. Entertainment and re-established as NetherRealm Studios.
The series takes place in a fictional universe consisting of numerous realms which, according to in-game backstories, were created by an ancient, eternal, and ethereal pantheon of preternatural divine beings known as the Elder Gods. The Mortal Kombat: Deception manual described six of the realms as: "Earthrealm, home to such legendary heroes as Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Sonya Blade, Johnny Cage, and Jax Briggs, and under the protection of the Thunder God Raiden; Netherrealm, the fiery depths of which are inhospitable to all but the most vile, a realm of demons and shadowy warriors such as Quan Chi and Noob Saibot; Outworld, a realm of constant strife which Emperor Shao Kahn claims as his own; Seido, the Realm of Order, whose inhabitants prize structure and order above all else; the Realm of Chaos, whose inhabitants do not abide by any rules whatsoever, and where constant turmoil and change are worshiped; and Edenia, which is known for its beauty, artistic expression, and the longevity of its inhabitants."[17][18] The Elder Gods decreed that the denizens of one realm could only conquer another realm by defeating the defending realm's greatest warriors in ten consecutive martial arts tournaments, called Mortal Kombat.
The first Mortal Kombat game takes place in Earthrealm (Earth) where seven different warriors with their own reasons for entering the tournament with the prize being the continued freedom of their realm under threat of a takeover by Outworld. Among the established warriors were Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, and Sonya Blade. With the help of the thunder god Raiden, the Earthrealm warriors were victorious, and Liu Kang became the new champion of Mortal Kombat.[19] In Mortal Kombat II, unable to deal with his minion Shang Tsung's failure, Outworld Emperor Shao Kahn lures the Earthrealm warriors to Outworld for a do-over, winner-take-all tournament, where Liu Kang eventually defeats Shao Kahn. By the time of Mortal Kombat 3, Shao Kahn merged Edenia with his empire and revived its former queen Sindel in Earthrealm, combining it with Outworld as well. He attempts to invade Earthrealm, but is ultimately defeated by Liu Kang once more. After the Kahn's defeat, Edenia was freed from his grasp and returned to a peaceful realm, ruled by Princess Kitana. The following game, Mortal Kombat 4, features the fallen elder god Shinnok attempting to conquer the realms and kill Raiden. He is defeated by Liu Kang.

Thanks guys! This MK channel really is the Quality over Quantity of MK podcasts. Great chemistry
Im sustained for another 3 months. Thanks boys.
What happened to Jango?
A podcast of old mk game fans talking about old mk lore?!! I have found my people!!!!
thank you guy, you're arguably best yt channel i follow.
Shad singing what he thought the lyrics were to Jago's stage is one my all time favorites from episode 122 of the show. "...found him in the car wash underneath a table." 😄👍🏻
Hey, NetherKast team! Sub-Zero_7th here; Thanks for another episode! It's been a long time since I've talked to you guys. I hope you're well. Cyborg, thanks for the shoutout @44:04 through 44:07. I believe I was the guest on episode #24, and I felt bad that I didn't say more. It was late at night, and I was also messaging one of my friends. I was amused that all of you could hear my very fast typing, and I recall it was Razor or Shad who founded it to be soothing.
As for the series, I'm still into it, but it's just not the same for me. Then again, I've largely been out of touch with a lot of gaming. I remember how excited I was for the games back in the 2000s. I'd love to hear you guys rank the different stages, songs, and finishers.
The T-shirt for this episode "I'm not a loose meet guy"
Love these Q&As
I want Kintaro and Dramin to guest star in mk also great episode as always
So i absolutely love you guys and i have been listening for years. I wish you were as positive with the game as other kommunities im a part of, such as Ketchup and Mustard, Super, Kenny Bomb, Waz, Ninja Killa, Honeybee, TrueUnderdawg and others...but ill listen to whatever you guys decide to talk about. You four are always wildly entertaining even if i dont always agree with you. Ive loved MK since i was a kid and probably always will, i can deal with basically whatever as long as the game is fun, anyway looking forward to whatever kontent you guys want to give...Graveyard Shift was amazing, please bring it back! Temp choosing Hara Kiri over that would you rather lives rent free in my head everyday of my life 😂
There are still many bright spots in each modern game. Plenty still to love, IMO. Thanks for sticking with us! -Cyborg
Another Lore vid soon pls , maybe regarding story expansion predictions for mk1? Hopefully they can make it better bc the old lore is still better
.. speaking of MK characters crossing over into other games, wasn't Kitana in a holding cell at Arkham in a Batman game? 🐉
Love it
I know you don’t like dark souls razor but fromsoft is another dev that does their own thing
Mk1 is fun to play. Story is typical NRS "meh!" I hate that they changed Scorpions and Kuai Langs backstories by merging the two iconic characters. It really shits me! We need a proper reboot that is faithful to the original lore. I'd just do an arcade remake with a story thrown into it. That's just my opinion and needs 🐉
