Taking place before the events of the first ''[[Mortal Kombat (Videovideo Gamegame)|Mortal Kombat]]'', the game begins with Black Dragon leader Kano breaking his gang out of jail and Jax out for revenge. Soon Jax discovers that they're after the "Eye of Shitian", a powerful relic and aims to stop them getting their hands on the artifact.

Soon Jax discovers that they're after the "Eye of Shitian", a powerful relic and aims to stop them getting their hands on the artifact.
 
The game suffered development problems, including half the original Midway team leaving (along with series co-founder John Tobias), the story being rewritten half way through and being rushed out to release.
 
Followed, game-wise, by '''[[Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance (Video Game)|Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance]]'''. Spinoff-wise, followed by '''[[Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks (Video Game)|Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks]]'''.

{{tropelist}}
=== Tropes: ===
 
* [[Beat'Em Up]]
* [[Blaxploitation]]: Cheesy 70's style intro, [[Scary Black Man]], outdated [[Jive Turkey]] sounding dialogue, distracted by the "honeys" and even owns a purple muscle car.
* [[Dummied Out]]: Quite a lot apparently but the most glaring ommission is Sonya. Not only is she not a playable character as originally planned but her absence is never explained.
* [[Five-Bad Band]]: The Black Dragon members, arguably doubling as a [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]].
** [[Big Bad]]: Kano.
** [[The Dragon]]: Jarek.
** [[Evil Genius]]: No Face.
** [[The Brute]]: Tremor.
** [[Dark Chick]]: Tasia.
* [[Foregone Conclusion]]: Kano's plan will be taken down, it's only the how that's in question.
* [[Murder, Inc.]]: The Black Dragon.
* [[Undying Loyalty]]: Save for maybe Jarek, the Black Dragon clansmen are very devoted to Kano. [[Bad Boss|He's merely using them as cannon fodder for any Special Forces members following his trail.]].
* [[Wanted Poster]]
