After constructing the Ultratech Lab, Fulgore — the relentless heavy-assault cyborg — pays a visit to Cyber Smoke at the Lin Kuei Palace. He coldly informs Cyber Smoke of his directive: to lead the charge toward mass production and the eventual enslavement of humanity. Outraged by such a purpose, Cyber Smoke refuses to comply and unleashes his fury. Wreathed in smoke and armed with his Double Bakufu Swords and his deadly Kunai with Chain, he clashes with Fulgore in a fierce battle of man versus machine. Soon, reinforcements arrive — Sub-Zero, Cyrax, Scorpion, Liu Kang, Kitana, Kung Lao, Cole Young, Kenshi, Raiden, Chappie, Jax, Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade, Deon, Vanessa, and even the human Glamrocks — all uniting to bring Fulgore down once and for all.
