Confirmed in July, there hasn't been much lately concerning the new season for the Mortal Kombat Legacy web series. Until now that is. Feast your eyes on the new trailer below!
"The Mortal Kombat Legacy continues in Season 2 as Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Kenshi, and Ermac join the ranks. The rivalries and histories of these fierce warriors will unfold as Raiden and his recruits clash against the dark forces of Outworld. The epic battle for Earthrealm has finally begun."
What's most interesting is what they're doing with Liu Kang. Long considered the Luke Skywalker of Mortal Kombat, Kang has been the hero of the franchise since the game hit arcades in 1992. But in Legacy's second season, it looks like he'll be fighting on the side of Shang Tsung, something the character has never done before.
Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Kenshi, and Ermac join Jax, Sonya Blade, Kano, Stryker, Johnny Cage, Kitana, Mileena, Quan-Chi, Sindel, Scorpion, Sub Zero, Raiden, Cyrax, and Sektor. It'll be quite the cast, but nothing that MK fans should have problems keeping up with. The events of the show are generally faithful to the story of the game, with a few liberties taken for dramatic effect.
For those of you looking to play catch up, here's a quick refresher of where first season of Legacy left off: (WARNING: SPOILERS!)
Kano's transformation to his trademark Terminator face is complete, the origin of Mileena and Kitana's rivalry is played out, Johnny Cage's fall from Hollywood's graces, the murder of Scorpion by Sub-Zero and Scorpion's spectral re-emergence, and an interesting introduction to protector of Earthrelam, Lord Raiden.
Since reading what happened obviously isn't worth half of experiencing it for yourself, we've put together a list of links for every episode of season one. Enjoy!
