Meanwhile, Scorpion fights Sub-Zero which ends by grabbing the former and resulting in the two hurling themselves off the bridge's cliff, impaling both Sub-Zero and Scorpion on a large spike. Then, Quan Chi appears and reveals to a badly injured Scorpion that he disguised himself as Sub-Zero and ordered the Lin Kuei soldiers to exterminate the Shirai Ryu since the real Sub-Zero was not actually involved in the carnage while also being the one responsible for murdering Satoshi and Harumi. Before the sorcerer leaves, Scorpion has a thought of Satoshi when he told his son that the Scorpion creature has its will, which made itself stronger. Scorpion then came back from that and removes himself from the spike to exact his redeem revenge. At the torture chamber, Kano is holding Jax hostage, and releases a horde of Outworlders to fight Sonya. They easily outmatch her, but she is saved by Johnny. They are able to defeat the horde, free Jax and finally defeat Kano. As they are about to leave, Jax apparently kills Kano by crushing his head.

Overview

Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge is an animated movie based on the popular Mortal Kombat series of fighting games by Warner Bros.

Plot

In Japan, Hanzo Hasashi is taking his son, Satoshi, back to the Shirai Ryu village. There, they are ambushed by the warriors of the Lin Kuei, who have already slaughtered the entire village. Hanzo is able to counter the ambush and hide in his dojo. Upon entering his room, Hanzo discovers the corpse of his wife, Harumi, unleashing a state of berserk rage inside him as he starts to eliminate the remaining warriors of the Lin Kuei inside the dojo. Hanzo looses the notion of space and time, and awakes outside the dojo, with the Lin Kuei's Grandmaster Sub-Zero holding Satoshi hostage and threatening to kill him if Hanzo doesn't surrender. Hanzo does, but Sub-Zero incapacitates him and kills Satoshi regardless by impaling him through the throat, before shooting an icicle through Hanzo's mouth, impaling him through the back of the neck and killing him.

In the Shaolin temple, Raiden tells Liu Kang to prepare himself to the tournament, and other defenders will be reunited with them. In Los Angeles, Johnny Cage, having broken up with his girlfriend, receives a call from his agent, who tells him that he should travel to China for his next job. In China, Sonya Blade engages a thug in a street fight, amid a Special Forces task to locate Kano, where she gets an invitation for the tournament. In the Netherrealm, Hanzo is about to be tortured by Moloch, but manages to free himself and kills the demon. On his search for Shinnok, he eliminates hundreds of demons, before meeting with Quan Chi. Quan Chi tells him that Shinnok was in-disposed and proposes an offer to Hanzo: Join the Mortal Kombat Tournament, which Sub-Zero will attend and complete his revenge, but also retrieve the key to free Shinnok, which is being held at Shang Tsung's Palace, the tournament location. Hanzo accepts, now dubbing himself as 'Scorpion'.

On a boat, Johnny meets with Liu Kang, Sonya and Raiden, as they travel through the vail to reach the Island of Shang Tsung. Upon their arrival, Shang Tsung hosts the attendants. Meanwhile, Scorpion manages to infiltrate inside the treasures of Shang Tsung, but just as he is about to get the key, but is persuaded by Raiden not to take it. Shang Tsung gives a demonstration of the tournament by capturing Jax Briggs and forcing him to fight his champion Goro. Goro succeeds in defeating Jax by ripping both his arms off, but Raiden stops Jax's execution and warns Shang Tsung that this fight was the tournament not been offically started yet. He is able to heal Jax's wounds, but Shang Tsung holds him prisoner. Shang Tsung then starts the tournament properly, and uses his magic to teleport the attendants to face each other on the Island.

Johnny is teleported to a tower, where he encounters Baraka, but destroys the tower in the process. Sonya is sent to a swamp, where she fights Reptile and successfully decapitates him with a chain. In a forest, Scorpion kills a lone Lin Kuei warrior. At Shang Tsung's Garden, Liu Kang fights Kitana, but defeats her, although he instead spares her life afterwards. In the wake of Earthrealm's success, Shang Tsung orders the Black Dragon to kill them. Liu Kang reunites with Sonya and Johnny, and later they meet Scorpion after killing a few Black Dragon members. Raiden appears and tells them they must enter the throne room to face the final kombatant, but Black Dragon members try to stop them. Upon reaching the bridge that leads to the throne room, the Earthrealmers are ambushed by Kano and Black Dragon assassins. With the help of Scorpion, they manage to defeat the Black Dragon. Kano is confronted by Sub-Zero, who overpowers him, but Scorpion, recognizing Sub-Zero as his son's killer, starts to battle him. Kano runs to the torture chamber, but Sonya goes after him, while Johnny decides to help her and Liu Kang goes to the throne room to confront Shang Tsung.

Meanwhile, Scorpion fights Sub-Zero which ends by grabbing the former and resulting in the two hurling themselves off the bridge's cliff, impaling both Sub-Zero and Scorpion on a large spike, although Scorpion survives due to him being undead while Sub-Zero is killed. Then, Quan Chi appears and reveals to a badly injured Scorpion that he disguised himself as Sub-Zero and ordered the Lin Kuei soldiers to exterminate the Shirai Ryu since the real Sub-Zero was not actually involved in the carnage while also being the one responsible for murdering Satoshi and Harumi. Before the sorcerer leaves, Scorpion has a thought of Satoshi when he told his son that the Scorpion creature has its will, which made itself stronger. Scorpion then came back from that and removes himself from the spike to exact his redeem revenge. At the torture chamber, Kano is holding Jax hostage, and releases a horde of Outworlders to fight Sonya. They easily outmatch her, but she is saved by Johnny. They are able to defeat the horde, free Jax and finally defeat Kano. As they are about to leave, Jax apparently kills Kano by crushing his head.

Liu Kang reaches the throne, and there he battles Goro. Goro easily outmatches Liu Kang, but before he is about to execute him just like he did to Jax, Scorpion appears and decapitates Goro. Shang Tsung proposes to Scorpion to defeat Liu Kang, in exchange for having Quan Chi. Scorpion tricks Shang Tsung into giving him the key, and ends the tournament, making Liu Kang the champion of Mortal Kombat. Since the tournament ended, Shang Tsung leaves to Outworld and the Island starts to crumble. Raiden and Liu Kang gather with Sonya, Johnny and Jax and leave in the boat. Scorpion stays to battle Quan Chi which ends by successfully killing him, finally avenging Satoshi, Harumi and the fallen Shirai Ryu before the island crumbles in ruins, allowing Scorpion to be crushed by debris as he accepts his fate and joins his clan in the afterlife. As Liu Kang and the Earthrealmers watch the island collapse, he voices regret for failing, but Raiden assures him that his destiny was never to face Goro, but rather the Emperor.
