After the defeat of Shao Kahn, the Earthrealm is restored and all souls are returned. World peace prospers as mankind learns to live together and respect one another. All nation-states are abolished under the direction of a one-world government created by the elder gods. All weapons are rounded up and destroyed. Those who would cause disruptions are imprisoned on the moon. The only threat to be found is inclement weather. After twenty years of peace and security, elder god Thrandor rebels against Raiden and the other elder gods and is banished to earth. His influence over mankind threatens its peace. Thrandor challenges Raiden to assembly his best warriors to fight to the death in the first Mortal Kombat tournament in decades. It's winner-takes-all -- put up or SHUT UP! It's....MORTAL KOMBAT!!!
