New Characters

  • Hydro - A member of the original Lin Kuei with Hydrokinesis, the power to manipulate water. Hydro was the friend & partner of the original Sub-Zero, Bi-Han. Unfortunately, he was unable to save his friend from being murdered by Scorpion of the Shirai Ryu during the 1st Mortal Kombat tournament. Following the news of Bi-Han's death, Hydro tried to avenge his fallen friend sometime before Tundra & Smoke would make a similar journey. He fought very well, but unfortunately was severely brutalized & nearly murdered by Scorpion. Barely clinging onto his life, Hydro was taken in by his family to be nursed back to health. Ultimately, this would be a time-consuming process that allowed Hydro to be spared the Lin Kuei's Cyber Initiative. When he was finally healthy again, Hydro was offered a position in the new Lin Kuei by Kuai Liang, otherwise known as the new Sub-Zero, the grandmaster. However, Hydro would refuse the position, remaining loyal to the old Lin Kuei. He became disillusioned entirely when he found out that his own brother, Aqua, had joined the new Shirai Ryu clan, led by the man who brutally murdered Bi-Han & nearly killed him years prior. Unsure of his purpose in life, Hydro was approached by Frost & Sektor & offered them a chance to be reunited with the old Lin Kuei clan. Hydro agreed & disappeared. When he resurfaced, he was forever changed. Hydro was now cyberized just like Cyrax, Frost, Sektor & Smoke were, & now serves as one of the top lieutenants of the cyborg ninja clan known as the Tekunin.

Like Ferra/Torr, The rider, Takk, serves as the de facto brains of the duo, while the hulking Ferra is the muscle. It's possible they communicate each other telepathically, or that Takk can actually understand the booming grunts that are Frra's usual vocalizations as well as her limited english grammar. Found roaming the Tarkatan Wastes by Imperial troops, Takk/Ferra was trained/coerced into serving as Kotal Khan & Jade's personal bodyguard.
  • Nighthawk - Every generation, the Great Spirit chooses a worthy warrior to become Nightwolf: the Matoka’s champion and protector. Grey Cloud proved worthy when he laid down his life to prevent the Black Dragon from plundering what remained of his tribe’s sacred artifacts.

He uses it not only to fight for the Matoka’s future, but also to defend all of Earthrealm, he would bare a son with his lover of the Matoka, Spring Deer, that son would be named Fateful Eagle. One day Fateful Eagle, he was destined to become the next Nightwolf, however Fateful believed that he was not yet ready to become a Guardian like his father & handle the responibilities of a Defender of Earthrealm. So he rebelled against his own father & ran away, heading on a journey to find his own destiny. Though he ended up regretting his decision of abandoning home weeks later. Fateful would be mockd for his Cherokee/Matoka native american heritage by racist people. What was worst was that he got beaten up by thugs. While trying to find food, he spot a suffering native american woman getting mugged by a criminal, Fateful came to the woman's aid, who was carrying a sacred relic of the Matoka, the criminal was a member of the Red Dragons. Despite not wanting to be the next Nightwolf, Fateful had to take a stand & so, he accepted the detiny chosen for him & chose to defend the Matoka for the first time, although he put up a good fight, but he was brutally beaten. However, he was willing to protect the woman & the relic, even if it means taking down the Red Dragon along with him. That was when the Great Spirit came to him and embodied him, taking the mantle of not Nightwolf, but another legendary defender of the Matoka: Nighthawk. Now as Nighthawk,  he managed to fight back against the crook and successfully drove the Red Dragon away from Matoka, saving the woman & the Sacred Relic of The Matoka, pleasing Nightwolf. Years later, along with Nightwolf, Nighthawk allies with Liu Kang and Raiden to defeat the evil Bluddbath.
  • Toxicito - Toxicito is a Zataurria Shokan, A Reptilian Shokan whose kind was thought to have been extinct long ago. Toxicito seeks vengeance on Shao Khan for the genocide of his race. He serves as Jade’s subordinate and allies with Fire God Liu Kang and The Defenders Of Earthrealm to defeat Bluddbath and save the realms.
  • Hornbuckle - A former member of Onaga's holy men, he was involved with the capture of the firespawn known as Blaze & his conscription into guarding the Dragon's Egg. However, by following this act in the name of Onaga, he began to have reservations about the cult's actions, as he had personally joined them in hopes of seeing Shao Khan dethroned & Outworld being placed in better hands. During a mission with the cult, this Outworlder was transported to Earthrealm. With no way of returning to Outworld, he decided to make a life for himself there, eventually becoming an MMA fighter by the stage name of "Hornbuckle". He would go unknown with the greater conflict of the realms for many years, but with Kitana Khan now on the throne, Hornbuckle returned to Outworld to serve the new Queen, amending for his past mistakes & fighting alongside Liu Kang and his allies in the battle against Bluddbath.
  • Belokk - A powerful demon of the Netherrealm, Belokk has served as a general of Hell's armies long before the fallen Elder God, Shinnok, seized dominion over the realm. Belokk had initially opposed the fallen Elder God, but was ultimately defeated alongside his master, Lucifer. For thousands of years did Belokk fade into obscurity. However, the defeat & death of Shinnok caused the destablization of the Netherrealm & the balance of power ha shifted in a different direction.The Netherrealm no longer had one singular monarch.The perfect condition for Belokk to reawaken once more. He quickly joined forces with Bluddbath to help build his army by recruiting demons & Onis to take the kamidogus & use them to rule the realms with an iron fist. Belokk had also allied with a fabled "Elder Demon" of incredible power named Baphomet. With his power & Baphomet's power combined, Belokks' power became very strong and deadly.
  • Aqua - An individual with hydrokinetic abilities, Aqua is the younger brother of Hydro of the Lin Kuei However, he didn't join the Lin Kuei, fearing that they were not as righteous as Hydro said they were. He was absolutely right about the perilous nature of his brother's work when Hydro was nearly killed by Scorpion during an effort to avenge his brother, Bi-Han. Aqua brought Hydro back to their family, where he was nursed back to health over a period of years. During that time, Aqua continued to explore the capacity of his powers & eventually learnd of a clan with an MO that he could get behind: The Shirai Ryu. The Lin Kuei's once-extinct enemy, now reformed by the very same man who had brutalized his brother for the purpose of protecting Earthrealm. Of course, Aqua was unaware of most of this Hydro had mentuined the Shirai Ryu before, but never in great detail, as he only referred to his opponent as "Scorpion" or Bi-Han's murderer, neither knowing anything of Hanzo Hasashi. Aqua enlisted himself in the clan, becoming a formidable opponent. Amusingly, he took up wearing a mask resembling the bill of a duck, believing that the sheer ridiculousness of it would throw off his enemies & cause to underestimate him. He was proven right on several occasions in which this small distraction granted him victory in sparring against fellow students of the Shirai Ryu. Now, Aqua's life has become quite troublesome. His Grandmaster has dedicated himself & the clan to aid Earthrealm's new protector god, Fire God Liu Kang, whose presence mixed with Raiden's presence made Aqua uneasy as of late. Furthermore, Hydro had suddenly resurfaced, allegedly aiding a new clan, and hacing been transformed into a cyborg, the very fate that he managed to evade years prior. The future of Aqua remains unseen, but there's no doubt that he'll be a variable asset in what's to come.

As his plans were nearing fruition, Onaga requested something of the Saurians would need to volunteer themselves for the process. Reptile, Komodai & Chameleon have nearly submitted, but it was Tiamat who suggested anothr possibility. He took the group to a tomb where they uncovered the body of the tyrant ruler of Zaterra, Tetsurri. Tiamat proposed that they present the body of Tetsurri to Onaga & allow the deceased tyrannical king to become his vessel. The other Saurians, including Reptile & Komodai agreed. Tiamat aided in carrying Tetsurri's casket & watched in awe as the Dragon King had returned to life after thousands of years. Upon learning that Tiamat was the one who suggested this vessel, Onaga saw fit to reward the Saurian by using but a small fraction of his sorcery to imbue Tiamat with mystical power, increasing the Saurian's size, physical strength & ferocity tenfold. Tiamat was promoted to the position of general among Onaga's nigh, undefeatable, undead army. As he had promised, Tiamat would serve the Dragon King very well.

Krypt

The Krypt returns as it takes place in the Hall of Kombatants, Chaosrealm, Earthrealm, NetherRealm, OrderRealm, Outworld, Edenia, Zaterra, Arctika, Vaeternus, Dreamrealm, Shang Tsung’s Island and the Nexus. The Krypt takes on an Open-World style map. At the entrance, Shujinko will welcome you. Unlike the Krypt in previous games, you can choose between three characters to use to explore the Krypt, you can choose either Apep (from Mortal Kombat: Deception & Mortal Kombat: Unchained), his descendant from Mortal Kombat 11, or create their own avatar. There are many doors and gates that block the player's path, which can be opened by solving puzzles or retrieving certain key items. There are also hundreds of chests scattered throughout The Krypt, which mostly contain random rewards. The varying types of chest each require a different currency to unlock: Koins (either Gold, silver, bronze, kopper, ruby, sapphire, emerald, blue zircon, aquamarine, topaz, iolite, lapis lazuli, platinum, diamond & rainbow), Soul Fragments, and Hearts. Chests requiring Hearts have pre-determined loot, and are the same for everybody. To open them, one must first smash the bust of Shao Kahn atop the chest. There are a few rarer chests as well, including: Kronika Vaults, Blindfold Chests, and a couple unique ones like the submerged chest in The Dead Woods.

There is no Save option in The Krypt, just like in Mortal Kombat 11. Because the game requires an online connection, saving is automatic so that it can store your rewards. Leaving the Krypt and returning later will let you continue exactly where you left off.

Death traps return as a number of death traps are present throughout the Krypt as well that can kill the player. There is no penalty for falling victim to these or dying at the hands of the Krypt's denizens, as the player quickly respawns nearby, though Shujinko will comment on the player's demise.

Key Items return also, with various uses. Some are permanent tools to aid your adventure, and some are consumable to increase your ability to find treasure. From Shao Khan’s Hammer, Ermac’s Amulet, & Scorpion’s Kunai Spear to Blaze’s Heart, Kenshi’s Blindfold, Raiden’s shattered staff & Shinnok’s pendant. As well as konsumable key items like the Ash of the Red Dragon, Sindel's Wedding Ring, Kia’s Spiked Club, Scavenger's Lock Pick, The Mystery Bundle, The Naknadan Charm & Tetsurri’s Gem.

The Sub-Areas in the Krypt are as followed: The Palace Entrance, The Kourtyard, The Living Forest, The Dead Woods, The Forge, The Sacrifice, The Naknadan Shrine, The Warrior Shrine, The Dojo, Shang Tsung’s Throne Room, The Mountain Pass, Kourtyard Kave, The Bridge, The Pit, The Bottom Of The Pit, Goro’s Lair, Goro’s Fortress, The Flesh Pits, The Sky Temple, Kuantan Jungle, The Graveyard, The Soul Chamber, The Dead Pool, Seido, Chaosrealm’s Aging Pool, The Relic Chamber, Earthrealm Subway, The Street, The Ruins Of Zaterra, The Abandoned Koliseum, Yin-Yang Island, The Sea Of Blood, The Bone Temple, Arctika, The Tekunin Warship, The Kytinn Hive, Edenian Palace, Kenshi’s Last Stand, Goro’s Throne Room, The Door of The One Being, The Nexus, Armory, Kollector’s Room, Goro’s Dining Hall, Goro’s Treasure Chamber, The Wu Shi Academy, The Portal, The White Lotus Temple, The Jails, The Chamber Of Suffering, Secret Kave, The Torture Chamber, The Blood Pit, The Acid Bath, Tengu Hideout, Wooden Bridge, The Deadlands, The Bloodmarsh, The Hollow of Infestation, and The Meadow of Despair, as well as the Nekropolis.

Enemies also return. There are many enemy types in the Krypt. The angry spirit, which appears occasionally when putting on Kenshi's Blindfold, grabbing the player by the neck and exploding their head. By swinging Shao Kahn's hammer right after putting on the blindfold, the monster can be killed and the player will receive a reward, The Kytinn spider. They appear only in Kytinn areas of the Krypt and will chase after the player if noticed. They will spray fire at the player, burning them to death. They can also be killed by Shao Kahn's hammer. There is also the Wolf who can chase after the player and maul the player to death; it can also be killed by Shao Khan’s hammer. There is also the Tygorr who silently stalks the avatar for a few moments before striking instantly and mauling the player to death & can be killed by Shao Khan’s Hammer. There is also the revenant, the shadow wraith, the undead Shadow Priest, the Oni, the Flesh Pit monster & the Krypt Monster that can also kill the player & be killed by Shao Khan’s hammer.

Like in Mortal Kombat 11, Mortal Kombat 12 gets an Aftermath Edition that adds 9 new characters, 6 new stages, & a story mode expansion that has 7 thick chapters in story mode that take place after the events of Mortal Kombat 12’s story mode. Also, the updated version of the game features the return of stage fatalities & the animality & Hara-Kiri finishing moves. Mortal Kombat 12: Aftermath Edition would be released on the 5th of June in 2025.

Aftermath Story Mode Plot

Following the defeat of Bluddbath, Fire God Liu Kang, Elder God Raiden, Kitana Khan, Lotus Kang, & Asgarth attempt to restore the chaos, havoc & anarchy in the realms caused by Bluddbath utilizing Bluddbath’s now-purified pendant, only to be interrupted by Shinnok, The Great Kung Lao, Sujin (The Water God who hasn’t made an appearance since Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub Zero), Darrius, Drahmin, Blaze & Hsu Hao, all of whom Bluddbath imprisoned during his reign until his death freed all of them. Shinnok elaborates that, due to Liu Kang, Raiden & Lotus Kang destroying The Chaosrealm's Kamidogu & Kamidogu Dagger when they defeated Bluddbath & purifying the pendant with Orderrealm’s Jinsei in Seido the realms cannot be restored back to normal even with the Kamidogus & Kamidogu Daggers without destroying the entire universe. Shinnok convinces Lotus Kang to send him, Blaze, Hsu Hao, Sujin, Drahmin, Darrius & The Great Kung Lao back in time to steal the Chaosrealm’s Kamidogu & Kamidogu Dagger before Nitara & Havik recover it. Though Raiden, Liu Kang, Kitana, & Asgarth being very distrustful of Shinnok’s motives, Lotus agrees and sends them back, staying behind to protect the pendant.

The seven warriors are transported to Kuatan Jungle just as Pantherk & She-Wolf confronted Belokk & Nitara. They attempt to flee undetected only for news to spread of their arrival to Bluddbath, prompting the Namahage warlord to retaliate. To face Tiamat, Khrome, & Onaga in the Bone Temple, Shinnok determines that their best option is to free Daegon & resurrect Shao Khan. So they head to the Netherrealm to capture Shao Khan’s revenant. Upon returning to Outworld, Shinnok encounters Shang Tsung & persuades him to use Skarlet’s blood debt to Shao Khan to get them in the Soul Chamber undetected and restore Shao Khan despite fierce resistance from Goro, Kintaro, Toxicito, Sheeva & Kitana & Jade’s allies.

Shao Khan & Daegon join Shinnok and the others in traveling to his temple, where Sujin defeats Bluddbath’s forces and convinces Toxicito to join Liu Kang, Raiden & Kitana’s side early while Shao Khan defeats Onaga & Tiamat and helps the group capture the Kamidogu & Kamidogu Dagger of Chaosrealm. With the Kamidogu & Kamidogu Dagger of Chaosrealm in their possession, Sujin and Shinnok travel to the Fire Garden and convince Raiden & Fujin of Shinnok's alliance. When Bluddbath attempts to intervene, Raiden, Fujin, Sujin and Shinnok fend him off, though he reveals that Havik & the fallen Elder God were the ones who designed his pendant using his blood & the sacred water of Chaosrealm.

As the offensive on Bluddbath’s keep is about to commence, Shinnok signals Shao Khan to release and heal Motaro. Together, they destroy Khrome, imprison the Cage family, defeat Kitana, Liu Kang, Lotus, Asgarth, Pantherk, Jade, and Kung Lao, and kill She-Wolf & Kotal. In the process, Shao Khan reveals he was a disciple to Onaga who wanted to take the throne from him as he saw himself as his successor despite Onaga’s real successor to be Tetsurri, who was stronger compared to Shao Kahn. While Sujin spearheads the offensive on Bluddbath’s keep, Raiden & Fujin discover Shinnok's plot and Shao Khan’s betrayal while fighting Kano's revenant after he receives injuries from Lotus & Cassie Cage.

Raiden, Taven, Darrius, The Great Kung Lao, & Fujin arrive too late to stop Shinnok from tricking Sujin into giving him the pendant & the Kamidogu of Chaosrealm & Chaosrealm’s Kamidogu Dagger, and the fallen elder god gains Bluddbath’s full power; revealing that he had planned everything ever since he was imprisoned in the Dungeon of NRK. He overpowers and imprisons Sujin, Taven, Darrius, The Great Kung Lao, Raiden and Fujin into his amulet before using Hsu Hao, Blaze, Drahmin, Daegon, Shang Tsung and Shao Kahn to reach the Citadel. Once Bluddbath’s remaining allies are defeated, Shinnok drains Shang Tsung’s soul power & then imprisons Sindel, Daegon, Drahmin, Blaze, Hsu Hao and Shao Kahn into his amulet and destroys Bluddbath & decapitating him. As he starts manipulating the realms with all of the Kamidogus & Kamidogu Daggers, he is interrupted by Fire God Liu Kang, Elder God Raiden, Asgarth, Kitana Khan & Lotus Kang, who reveals that he was always aware of his intentions and deliberately allowed him to win so the Chaosrealm’s Kamidogu & Kamidogu Dagger would be preserved when Bluddbath was defeated.

From this point, the player can choose which character to fight with:

  • (Non-Canonical) If Shinnok is chosen, he overpowers Liu Kang, Raiden, Kitana, Asgarth & Lotus and traps them before turning Bluddbath’s allies & the revenants of Kano & Kotal into his slaves as he ushers in a campaign of conquest across the realms.
  • (Canonical) If Lotus Kang & his allies are chosen, they defeat Shinnok, ultimately kill him, and recover the pendant of Bluddbath & the Kamidogus & Kamidogu Daggers. Once they restore all of the realms, Lotus & Asgarth visit the White Lotus Shaolin temple so he can train the next generation of Earthrealm’s champions, led by Kung Lao’s son, Kung Yi (Voiced by Jin Hyong), to become the champions of not just Earthrealm, Outworld & Edenia, but also the realms.
  • (Canonical) If Lotus Kang & his allies successfully defeat Shinnok in two straight rounds without losing once nor anyone getting defeated, they manage to reunite with Kung Lao, The Cage & Briggs families & their allies all vow to create a better future while undoing the mistakes & chaos done by Bluddbath & Shinnok throughout the realms. Though they all realize that mortals will still make their own choices and new evils will eventually arise, they resolve to face whatever happens together. All while training the next generation of Earthrealm’s champions, led by Kung Yi, to become the champions of not just Earthrealm, Outworld & Edenia, but also the realms.

  6. The Pit: When an opponent is defeated on this stage, they can be uppercutted off the bridge where they will first lose an arm to the spiky pillars holding the bridge up, and then either land on a bed of spikes, meet their demise on the rocky bottom below, or  sliced to pieces by giant spinning blades at the bottom with their arm following after.
