After centuries of Mortal Kombat, Emperor Shao Kahn has finally defeated Raiden and his allies. Faced with extinction, Raiden has one last chance. To undo the Emperor’s victory, he must strike Shao Kahn where he is vulnerable… The Past. With a return to the mature presentation and classic 2D fighting plane, Mortal Kombat is the most accessible and competitive MK game to date, coming soon to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Mortal Kombat further extends the brutal experience with a visually striking story mode that will rewrite the ancient history of the Mortal Kombat Tournament.
Cyrax, a Motswana member of the Lin Kuei, relies on his natural fighting ability, his chi, to carry out Lin Kuei missions. He is proud to serve, but shows reservations when the Grandmaster initiates a program to convert the clan into cyborgs. Reluctant to lose his humanity, he believes his instincts and judgement more effective than any mechanical augmentation. His doubts only grow after Raiden convinces him that enabling Shang Tsung to win the Mortal Kombat tournament would spell the end of Earthrealm, including the Lin Kuei. He confronts Sektor, who is willing to co-opt him even if by force, but Cyrax defeats him and announces he will leave the Lin Kuei. However, in unseen events, he ends up getting caught and automated anyway, joining Sektor in giving chase to Smoke and Tundra (the younger Sub-Zero) into the Outworld.
