He introduces himself to the monk whose name is Kung Lao the descendent of Liu Kang and the present day Kung Lao. Players are transported to the Shaolin temple where Liu Kang appears before one of the monks. As every fighting game needs a villain for the characters to stand up against, and a god-like Shang Tsung would do the trick.Ĭhoosing the side of good will have Liu Kang defeat Shang Tsung and take Kronika's crown to restart history. This ending is way more cynical in terms of the fate of the world, but it could be what unites the realms in the next Mortal Kombat. They inform him that Outrealm, Earthrealm and NetherRealm are under his rule, and the rest of the realms will soon follow.Ī pleased Shang Tsung laughs and utters, 'it has begun.'

Shang Tsung uses the hourglass to create a new era in his image where he's a deity and Raiden and Fujin are seen reporting to him. The Shang Tsung ending as it's the most straightforward and predictable.Ĭhoosing the evil sorcerer and defeating Liu Kang will have Shang Tsung absorb Kang's soul and gain the power needed to run Kronika's hourglass. Each choice comes with its own ending, but don't worry you can replay this final battle to see both. Here is where, players will have to decide whether to fight as Shang Tsung or Liu Kang. This leads to the final battle between Shang Tsung and Liu Kang, a match both men have been looking forward to for years and brings the Mortal Kombat story full circle. Liu Kang knew this would happen all along, but he needed Shang Tsung to defeat Kronika. Just as Shang Tsung has taken the crown for himself, defeated Kronika and absorbed her powers Liu Kang returns from the future to face him.

Through the course of the Aftermath story we see betrayal after betrayal, as one would expect when Shang Tsung is at the center of the plot, which leads to the final battle. Liu Kang decides to trust Shang Tsung to go back to the past and retrieve the crown. In Aftermath, Shang Tsung warns our heroes that they need Kronika's crown-which was destroyed in the final battle-to reshape history once again. When Kronika was defeated and killed by Thunder Fire God Liu Kang at the end of the main story, they were released.

The titan of time tried to recruit the three men to help her reshape history, but when they refused they were put in this special prison.

The story of Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath sees Shang Tsung, Nightwolf and Fujin emerge from 'The Void' that Kronika put them in during the events of the main story. NetherRealm Studios/Warner Bros MORTAL KOMBAT 11 AFTERMATH ENDING EXPLAINED
