Credits ===The History of Mortal Kombat=== Mortal Kombat is the tournament between Earth Realm's best warriors and the Out World's best warriors as it decides the fate of Earth Realm. Shao Kahn, the emperor of Out World, seeks Earth Realm and tries to invade it where the Elder Gods had created a tournament under the name of '''Mortal Kombat'''. If Out World defeated Earth Realm's warriors in 10 tournaments, Earth Realm will fall to the tyrant's hands. Out World had already won 9 tournaments and beating the ''Great Kung Lao'' whom Goro defeated. In the tenth, Shang Tsung, had picked some of Earth's best martial artists whom included: Liu Kang, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade. Liu Kang succeeded in freeing Earth from Shao Kahn's dirty hands. But after then, Out World forces begin to attack Earth Realm even though Earth is supposed to be safe for 1 generation. The Tarakatan Warriors spread into the Wu Shi Academy, killing its shaolin monks. And it's Liu Kang and Kung Lao's duty to save the world. ===The Boss Tips=== ====Defeating Oni Warlord==== Oni Warlord is nothing but a big oni, player can defeat him even without this help. To defeat him, keep launching fireballs (as Liu Kang) or keep teleport attack (as Scorpion) and when he launches his move, run towards him and press O. ====Defeating the Out World Assassins==== You must first tire Kitana and free her from the spell by keeping Mileena and Jade from escaping her. Then keep injuring the 2 assassins until they are thrown to one of the traps. When they are thrown, go to the pullover and Test Your Might. Keep doing it until they are defeated. ====Defeating Reptile==== =====Defeating The Giant Serpent===== First step in beating Reptile is defeating his giant "pet" snake. Avoid his movements and destroy the stone columns. The ground should come crashing down with the snake, where you will fight Reptile. =====Defeating Reptile===== It is as simple it could be. Keep punching him, if he teleported to the head of the snake and launch you with blasts, do the following: Evade them by pressing R2+[Direction]+X and DO NOT jump. When he disappears, it is better to the following: As Kung Lao: Keep Spinning As Liu Kang: Keep performing Flying Kick As Scorpion: Keep performing Hellfire Kick As Sub-Zero: Keep performing Ice Slide ====Defeating Baraka==== Keep evading his techniques and punch him. Keep doing it until he gets to the other side and tries to shoot you with his blasts. When he is doing that, keep launching Fireballs or throw your hat. When the swords are down, take them... Win in the test your might battle with Baraka... THEN IMPALE HIM by pressing R2 towards him (Not directly IN FRONT of him). Do it with both swords and he will be dazed. Finish Him and it is done. **NOTE** When Baraka throws burning monks, launch them away, they should give you health. ====Defeating Goro==== Goro is the weakest boss after Oni Warlord to me... Keep evading his attacks, and when he catches you... Win in test your might. When performs his attacks, evade them and run towards him by pressing O with it. Okay, this is the easiest part, the part of Goro holding the giant stone column. Don't get too close to him. When he slams the column to the ground, evade it directing the evasion towards Goro. Before he could lift it up, run towards him and press O. Do it until he is defeated. Really easy, no? **NOTE** before facing Goro with a little distance, you will have to face Kuai Liang, the younger Sub-Zero. You won't kill him, you will fight him, and then he will assist you in your quest. But he won't be there fighting alongside you against Goro. ====Defeating Scorpion==== =====Defeating Scorpion===== Beware, Scorpion is the second most powerful boss after Shao Kahn. At first, attack him normally. When he is escaping and performing RAISE HELL attack. Go to him and evade the attack. In some moment. He will throw his spear to the platform on the ground (In the shape of MK's Dragon) and interact it. Pull the spear and Scorpion will be dragged down. Defeat him and make sure your health is ultimately high. Because the hard part is coming... =====Defeating ''Inferno'' Scorpion===== After you throw him to hell, he will reappear with skin tone Red from anger. And rips his mask off, showing the flaming skull which he truly is. Avoid his brutal techniques especially the one which he keeps throwing it towards everywhere around him. And launch Fireballs at him until he is stunned (MAX Fireball LVL. required) and punch him. When he is dazed, FINISH HIM. Then you will find the hell skeletons trying to pull down Scorpion to the grounds of Hell. When he dragged, he tries to escape, but the performer of the fatality catches a skeleton and throws it on Scorpion causing him to fall down in Hell. Then he raises his thumbs will sinking as a sign for respect before his death. ====Defeating Shang Tsung==== Shang Tsung is the second weakest character despite being a Sub-Boss. When he morphs into Johnny Cage, power slam him (Second Upgrade of THROW) and when he is down, do it again, and again, and again and again, until he is completely loses. Then Finish Him. ====Defeating Kintaro==== Same way as Goro, but he is a little more difficult. ====Defeating ''Shao Kahn''==== =====Normal Shao Kahn===== Keep away from Shao Kahn, and launch Fireballs combo towards him. Only Liu Kang can easily beat that guy. Do not jump because he will catch you. Keep away and launch these fireballs combos until a scene is shown. =====Defeating ''Hammered'' Shao Kahn===== This is the hard part... Keep away from Shao Kahn and do what you have done with normal Shao Kahn (Fireball Combo). And when he is near, Long Jump (L1+X) away, especially when he spins the hammer too fast. When your health is lowered, use the item Jax left you on a cursor that is green colored ball (How to earn it is below). When you defeat Shao Kahn, a scene shows Raiden turning Shao Kahn to a statue, and Liu Kang with Kung Lao kills him. Then some talking happens with a funny scene which Johnny Cage says: Maybe I'll search for that clone they mentioned earlier. And when the heroes go away, the wrecked sorcerer, Quan Chi, is seen holding Shinnok's Amulet whom he will use it later in Deadly Alliance. **IMPORTANT NOTE** How to get the item Jax left? Before entering the arena, go right, where you will find a woman in a cell, it's Kitana! Talk to her 3 or 4 times, until guards appear from a door. Kill those guards and enter the door they entered from. There you will find Jax Briggs trying to save Sonya Blade, and when he does, Kano appears. This will turn on a SECRET BOSS BATTLE against Kano. This is the best one, because Kano is weak, and a third member will join you ONLY THIS BATTLE. Then Jax leaves with Sonya, but before it he gives Liu Kang a green colored energy ball that you will use in the battle with Shao Kahn. Go to it during the battle with Shao Kahn and interact it, in the bottom of the arena, a Medium Health will appear. Take it, and complete your battle. ''WARNING!!!'' Do not use that item against any sub-boss as Shang Tsung and Kintaro, only use it against Shao Kahn, because he is the ultimate enemy. Whom I have no idea who could I beat him ALONE in the second try! ====Unlocking Characters==== =====Johnny Cage===== KO-OP required. In the Portal (Out World) after you get out of the Wu Shi Academy, go to the left until you reach the end. You will find two colored plates on the ground. Each player must touch it, and a land will emit from the wall, that land keeps getting in and out. Jump on it, then jump again to the roof of the wall. There you will find the red token. Take it to unlock Johnny Cage in Versus Mode. =====Kitana===== In the Evil Monastery, the area where you first get the Multality. After it, there are two statues of Evil Priests where they required Fist of Ruin ability. Before it, there are a group of columns, jump on the one which is half broken then jump on the roof near it. Continue the path and you'll find a token includes Kitana in Versus Mode. =====Reptile===== In the Living Forest, the areas after you face the Brothers of Shadows. There is a gap with a little waterfall. Long jump across it AND DO NOT FALL INTO WATER. Enter the door after that gap. There you will find a living tree after it 2 clay soldiers. Break the shields of the clay soldiers. You only need one warrior of them. Throw one into the water and follow him. Watch out from the serpents. Get the warrior in front of the giant stone column and launch him toward it using Triangle (Uppercut as Liu Kang, Scorpion. Spin as Kung Lao. Slide as Sub-Zero). The column should come crashing down. Go back to the tiny waterfall you were at. There will be no longer a waterfall. There will be a token that unlocks Reptile in Versus Mode. =====Baraka===== In the Soul Tombs, the area where there is a priest you need to break after you throw Tarakatan Warriors into a spike that come down. Destroy that priest statue, and go further after the gaps on the small land. Complete that until you reach the other side of the upcoming door. There will be a token that unlocks Baraka in Versus Mode. =====Scorpion===== Scorpion is a character that can be played in versus, single and KO-OP. In foundry follow the pathway downstairs to the left of the save station. Two archers will bust through the wall. Throw one at the wall to the left of the door way and it will bust open revealing a secret room full of lava and a yin yang on a ledge. Grab one of the archers and throw them in the lava. Then double jump off the guards back to claim the Scorpion yin yang for VS. Alternately, do the following code in Main Menu: Hold L2 press: square, up, L1, R1, left, right, square release L2. **NOTE** to know if it is true, you will hear a confirmation sound. WARNING!!! The way to unlock Scorpion during adventure only unlocks him in versus mode. To unlock him in KO-OP and single player during adventure, beat the game with Liu Kang. =====Sub-Zero===== Sub-Zero is a character that can be played in versus, single and KO-OP. In Wastelands, the blood lakes after you face Sub-Zero. Complete the path of the blood lake to the door that Sub-Zero will weaken it, there will be 2 statues in shaped of Lions. The left one has a yin yang token that unlocks Sub-Zero. Alternately, if you weren't lucky in that like me… Use the following code in the Main Menu to unlock him: Hold L2 press: square, down, up, L1, L1, up, square release L2… WARNING!!!

Listed below are the 5 missions and the parameters that need to be met in order to complete them. In order to start these missions, you need to find Smoke first in the Living Forest. He is located in the area with the waterfalls. When you come across the second set of Clay Soldiers, throw one of them into the rock that is blocking a doorway. Head inside to find Smoke. Talk to him each time you complete a mission until they are all done. --> Mission 1: Break the walls in the Soul Tombs. You have to break the walls in the Soul Tombs for this mission. So head to the Soul Tombs and go through the green room. In the first room of this portion of the level, throw the Tarkatas through the breakable wall toward the back of the room. You’ll also be rewarded with a Fatality and 500 EXP. --> Mission 2: Find the shrine. You have to “find the shrine” in this mission. When you first entered the Wu Shi Academy you came to a fork. We ended up taking the right fork. It is now time to take the left one. Long Jump over the spike pit and knock down the statue with the Fist of Ruin. Walk up to the wooden double doors and you’ll be rewarded with 700 EXP. --> Mission 3: Perform 3 sacrifices in the torture room. In order to perform these three sacrifices, head to the Soul Tombs once again. As you enter a cut-scene will play out showing you where you need to go. It turns out that a new door with a skull over it has opened up. In this room is a pit and 3 different portions of the wall with spikes on them. You need to throw three enemies onto these spikes in order to pass the mission. You’ll be rewarded with 700 EXP. --> Mission 4: Throw an enemy into the purple portals in the Portal area. Head to the Portal (the main hub of the game). If you remember, there are two small purple portals scattered about. On the uppermost portion of the Portal area (across the gap) is a small portal straight ahead. Throw one of the Shadow Priests into it or one of the other guards around. The second portal can be found on the lowermost portion of this area. Go to this area and locate the portal; it is back and to the right. Throw one of the Shadow Priests or the Demon Captain into it to complete the mission. You’ll be rewarded 700 EXP for completing the mission. --> Mission 5: Survive in the frozen wasteland. Go through the portal that opens up to the right of Smoke. You find yourself in the Pit II from Mortal Kombat II! Enemy upon enemy will continue to attack you. Kill all of them (throwing some off the bridge helps tremendously) and return to Smoke; you’ll be rewarded with 700 EXP once again. For completing Smoke’s missions, you unlocked Mortal Kombat II! Congratulations! You will also unlock one of the BEST rewards other than MKII. You will unlock 50,000 EXP!!!! ====Credits==== This FAQ is made only for gamefaqs.com and any user who will copy it to another website. Well, will be reported by me.
