Sonya's, Liu Kang's, and Scorpion's, have all
been discovered and added to the FAQ. This
completes the move-finding for MK4, and this
could possibly be the final update to the FAQ,
after almost a year (June 30th, 1997 to
April 22nd, 1998) of working. Thanks to MKX
for the movements to the Fatalities. Enjoy!

thanks to MKX.

section.

to MKX for the movements. Some other revisions
have also been made to the Weapons/Breakers section.
Jarek's Goro's Lair Stage Fatality also added.

- v13.3: A second Fatality for Sub-Zero and Tanya have
been added. Remember, these are REVISION 3.0
Fatalities, which is the version that many people
still don't have. To find out which version
you're playing on, wait until you see the title
screen during the attract mode (the one with the
MK4 Logo), and you'll see a revision number on it.
A big thanks goes out to the MKX for
these movements.

- v13.2: The CURRENT STATUS section has been updated with
the latest on Revision 3.0. Also, the SECRET
CHARACTERS, CODES, & TRICKS section has been
updated with some tricks you can pull off in MK4.

- v13.1: Minor formatting corrections and small
additions/removals here and there. The
CURRENT STATUS section has been updated
with the latest news regarding Revision 3.

- v13: This is it! This will hopefully be the final major
revision of this FAQ, as long as there isn't another
major revision of MK4 introduced in Chicago. Look around,
a whole bunch of things have been changed/added. Every single
section has gone under some revision. Three major sections
have been added, SECRET CHARACTERS & CODES, WEAPON MOVES and
CHARACTER ENDINGS. A big thanks goes out to the Lin Kuei
Headquarters for use of their weapon movements and endings.

IV. KEY:
What each of the button sequences means.
Updated: January 13th
================================================================

U = Up HP = High Punch HK = High Kick
F = Forward BLK = Block
D = Down LP = Low Punch LK = Low Kick
B = Back RUN = Run

"," = then
"+" = and
"()" = Requirements for a move

EXAMPLES: ---------

* "B, B, HP+LP" means to do two back motions on
the joystick, and then press High Punch and Low Punch at the
same time.

* "Hold HP (F, F, D, F+HK) Release" means to Hold the High Punch
button while doing the motions Forward, Forward, Down on the
controller, then pressing Forward and the High Kick button at
the same time, before releasing everything.

FATALITIES: ---------

* "B, D, F, HP (Sweep)" means to do the motion Back, Down,
Forward, then hit the button High Punch. This move must
be done at "Sweep Distance", or one foot sweep away from
your opponent. Other distances include but are not limited
to:

1) "Close"........... Make sure you're standing as close to the opponent
as possible.
2) "1 Step Away"..... Get as close to your opponent as possible,
then tap the joystick back once to get one
step away from him/her.
3) "Sweep Distance".. One full foot sweep away from your
opponent. A good way to test this
is to make your last move a Breaker move (F+LK).
These moves will almost always put
you in the perfect position.
4) "Half Screen"..... Make sure that 1/2 of the screen is between you
and your opponent. "Just Outside Sweep" could also
be considered "Half Screen".
5) "Full Screen"..... Make sure that you and your opponent are as far away
from eachother as possible by backing up until the
screen doesn't scroll anymore.

V. CURRENT STATUS
The Status on MK4's Completion
Updated: January 26th
================================================================

- Update: 1/26/98 12:00AM
Word has it that Revision 3.0 is now, finally, appearing in
arcades across the nation. There hasn't been any confirmation
as to why the shipment of the new upgrade was so slow, but
that doesn't really matter now. What matters now is that we
get back out there and look for those 15 remaining fatalities!

- Update: 1/22/98 5:00PM
Where is Revision 3.0? It was expected to make a nationwide
release a week or 2 back, but the shipping of the new upgrade
has supposedly lagged behind for some reason. I've called around
to local arcades, and some weren't even aware of the new revision,
and the ones who were aware of it said it may be arriving within
the coming week. It's done, its just gotta get out there. :)

- Update: 1/13/98 10:00PM
Version 3.0 is now 100% complete, and the beta testing in Chicago
has, for the most part, come to an end. This looks to be the last
of the "developmental" stage of MK4, and now its time for the final
search of fatalities before it just sits around and collects dust,
and then we move on to the Home Versions. :)

- Update: 12/28/97 5:00PM
Version 3.0 is currently shipping nationwide. It has been testing
in Chicago for the past few weeks, and has gone through some minor
tweaking to fix bugs and glitches here and there. The major
difference in this version is that there is now a 2nd fatality for
every character, and there have also been some other minor additions.
A new Stage Fatality has been added to Goro's Lair, which requires
a different movement from the Prison Stage Fatality. Some weapons and
breakers have been switched around and added, and spiked balls have
been added to the floor of the purple stage for throwing. There was
also a glitch in Version 2.92 (A beta of v3.0) where a bloody skeleton
was playable! With the addition of a "Meat Lives!" comment on Ed Boon's
MK4 page, the rumors are flowing about this possibly playable corpse,
although nothing has been confirmed. Version 3 should arrive at most
arcades sometime after the New Year, 1998.

- Update: 10/20/97 9:30PM
Version 2.0 has been released nationwide. Version 1.44 and 1.72
were beta tests for the final Version 2.0. Information on these
versions is available in the REVISION HISTORY section. Among the
many changes made to Version 2.0 are the addition Jax, Johnny Cage,
and Reiko, a 3-D Movement Button, Interactive Backgrounds, a VS.
Screen, and most, if not the rest of the character fatalities.

- Update: 9/27/97 7:30PM
Version 2.0 has arrived in Chicago for testing, however, this is
only a BETA, and the final nationwide release of v2.0 should be
sometime during the week of October 5th - 10th 1997. Check back here
for the latest version information of MK4.

- Update: 9/11/97 7:00PM
Version 1.0 of MK4 has been released nationwide. Not much changes
from the version 0.99, only now every character has a different
button sequence for their weapon pull out move. Check your local
arcade and see if MK4 has arrived yet! If there are any future
upgrades to the software, it'll be here, so don't forget to check
back.

- Update: 9/8/97 10:30PM
Version 0.99 is the current revision number at the MK4 Beta
test sites in Chicago. A "Version 1.0" is scheduled to be
released later this week in the windy city, which is the version
that will be shipped to arcades across the country. We are just
days away from MK4's release, a moment we've been waiting for
over a year now!

- Update: 9/2/97 11:30PM
The new, and possibly the final MK4 Beta ROM Upgrade occurred
tonight at Dennis's Place in Chicago. Some of the new additions
were Jarek, a new character from Kano's Black Dragon Organization,
a new move for Sonya, the cartwheel, and alot of weapon changes.
There is also a new boss in the game, but not much is known about
him yet. Check out the news page for the latest updates. So the
question is now... "When will MK4 go national?" I guess we'll have
to wait and see.

- Update: 8/25/97 5:30PM
Testing at Diversions Arcade in Chicago was halted about a week
ago for an unknown reason. Fortunately, there are still 3 to 4 more
arcades in the Chicago area that are housing the MK4 Beta, like
"Just for Fun" and "Dennis's Place". A new upgrade dated "August 24th"
is now in the machines. This new revision includes 2 new stages,
"The Prison" and "The Living Forest". Shinnok now has some of his
"Impersonation" moves, and there are also new moves for Tanya and
Quan Chi. More updates soon.

- Update: 8/20/97 8:30PM
Testing at Diversions in Chicago, IL. began a few days ago. There
have been a whole bunch of glitches, crashes, lock-ups, ect. Midway
is keeping track of all of the glitches, and making many small upgrades
to the ROM board, fixing a few glitches at a time. So it looks like
they're going to fix all of the current problems before they continue
to develop the game. I'll keep you updated on further developments.

Select Screen: http://fighters.simplenet.com/mk/mk4/moves/v1.72.jpg

- Version 2.1 - Released: October 17th, 1997
Select Screen: http://fighters.simplenet.com/mk/mk4/moves/v1.72.jpg
* Exactly the same as Version 2.0
* The only thing fixed was a nasty CPU bug which was making the
computer extremely easy to beat, and even allowing someone to
control the computer with the second controller. This was causing
arcades to lose revenue, because the game was so easy that you
could beat it within minutes to see the endings, then never play
it again.

- Version 3.0 - Released: January 20th, 1998 (Current Version)
Select Screen: http://fighters.simplenet.com/mk/mk4/moves/v1.72.jpg
* Third and supposedly final OFFICIAL release of MK4.
* Had been testing for about a month in Chicago before going national.
* A 2nd Fatality for every character.
* Stage Fatality added to Goro's Lair where you uppercut them into
spikes on the ceiling. Requires a different movement than the Prison
Stage Fatality.
* Spiked balls added to the floors of the Purple Stage for throwing.
* Most bugs have been fixed, however camera flaws still exist,
especially in the Purple Stage.
* More Kombat Kodes added.
* New weapon for Johnny Cage.
* Fatality "Demo" added at the beginning of the game. It shows
fatalitys being performed, and just before any killing is done,
it fades to black and the "Fatality" sign appears.
* More breakers have been added and switched around.
* Close Captions have been added to the endings for noisy arcades.
* The Combo System has been modified, and Air Combos and linkers
are now possible.
* There was a glitch in Version 2.92 (A beta of Version 3.0) where
if you chose the 2-on-2 Kombat, then each player chose either
Sub-Zero or Scorpion as 1 of their 2 characters, when the match
began, one of each player's characters would be a bloody corpse!
The skeletons would fight eachother and everything. With the recent
remark "Meat Lives" made on Ed Boon's MK4 Page, the rumors have
been flowing on if this corpse is secretly playable in MK4. Meat
IS in fact playable in this version. For more information, refer
to the SECRET CHARACTERS & CODES section.

VII. BASIC INFORMATION:
Basic Information about the game and the characters.
Updated: January 13th

Index of Basic Information Section:
1) Characters
2) Starting Out
3) Select Screen
4) Choose Your Destiny
================================================================

--------------------------------------
1) CHARACTERS
--------------------------------------
Characters in Mortal Kombat 4:

- Returning Characters: - New Characters:
* Scorpion * Kai - Former Member of White Lotus
* Raiden * Shinnok - Fallen Elder God
* Sonya * Quan Chi - Evil Sorcerer
* Liu Kang * Tanya - Edenian Ambassador
* Reptile * Fujin - God of Wind
* Jax * Jarek - Black Dragon Member
* Johnny Cage * Meat - Bloody skeleton corpse (Secret)
* Reiko - General of Shinnok's Army

--------------------------------------
2) STARTING OUT
--------------------------------------
Once you have put your quarter(s) into the game, a screen similar to
this will show up:
_________________________________
| |
| M O R T A L 4 K O M B A T |
| Credits: 2 |
| ____________ ___________ |
|| | | ||
|| 1 on 1 | | 2 on 2 ||
|| KOMBAT | | KOMBAT ||
|| 2 Credits | | 6 Credits ||
||____________| |___________||
|_________________________________|

Depending on the amount of quarters you have entered, you will be able to
select either 1-on-1, which is a normal game, or 2-on-2, which is a team
game, in where 4 characters are selected all together. Each time you lose,
that character explodes and your second choice jumps out. The order in which
you choose the characters will be the order in which you play as them. Roles
are switched every round, and the character who went first in the previous
round goes second in the next round.

-----------------------------------------
3) SELECT SCREEN
-----------------------------------------

After pressing start on the previous screen, you'll be confronted with a
select screen of all of the characters in MK4. Simply highlight the
character you would like to play as, and press any button to choose him.
If you wait too long to select a character, the computer will select one
for you. Here is an example of the layout of the select screen:

S E L E C T Y O U R F I G H T E R
______________________________________________________
| | | | | |
| Kai | Raiden | Shinnok | Liu | Reptile |
| | | | Kang | |
|__________|__________|__________|__________|__________|
| | | | | |
| Scorpion | Jax | Reiko | Johnny | Jarek |
| | | | Cage | |
|__________|__________|__________|__________|__________|
| | | | | |
| Tanya | Fujin | Sub-Zero | Quan | Sonya |
| | | | Chi | |
|__________|__________|__________|__________|__________|
| RANDOM | GROUP | HIDDEN |
|__________|__________|__________|


A) Random, Group, and Hidden Buttons --------------------------------------
At the bottom of the screen are 3 new buttons. The Random, Group, and
Hidden buttons. Here is a short explanation of what each of them can do.

* RANDOM: Randomly selects a character.
* HIDDEN: This button hides the flashing selector box around the
character, so your opponent doesn't have a chance to see
who you select, and neither do you if you don't pay
attention. In this mode of selecting a character, the
darkening of the selected box, and the saying of the
selected character's names are disabled. So you have
virtually no idea of who your opponent, or you for that
matter, selected. If you wait too long to select a character
while hidden, it will select one for you.
* GROUP: This button only works in 2-on-2 Battle Mode. If you select
it, you will play as the first person on the select screen
(Kai). If you win the match with Kai, you'll play as Raiden.
It will continue across the select screen grid like so until
you lose. If you're able to defeat this mode and go through
the select screen grid without losing, you get to play as the
hidden character "Meat". For more information on "Meat",
refer to the SECRET CHARACTERS & CODES section.

B) Alternate Character Colors/Outfits -------------------------------------
In MK4, you have the option of playing as your character in a different
outfit or color. Instead of direct palette (color) swaps as it was in
MK3/UMK3, every character now has something different about them. For
example, Liu Kang can either be wearing a shirt or not wearing a shirt.
Sub-Zero can either wear a mask or not wear a mask, and so on. To do this,
highlight your character on the select screen, hold the "Start" button,
and hold down the following buttons, depending on which character you want
to use:

Kai: HP+BLK+LK Reiko: HP+LK+RUN
Raiden: LP+BLK+HK Cage: LP+LK+RUN
Shinnok: HP+BLK+LP Jarek: HK+HP+RUN
Liu Kang: HK+BLK+LK Fujin: HP+LP+HK
Reptile: LP+BLK+LK Quan Chi: HP+HK+RUN
Scorpion: HP+BLK+HK Tanya: LP+HK+LK
Jax: LP+BLK+RUN Sub-Zero: HP+BLK+RUN
Sonya: HP+LK+RUN

----------------------------------------------
4) CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY
----------------------------------------------
After selecting your characters in a 1-player game only, a screen will come
up in which you are to choose which battle plan you'd like to take. As the
towers get taller, they get harder and more experienced, and you fight
more opponents. In order, the towers are: Novice (6 opponents), Beginner
(7 opponents), Warrior (8 opponents), Master (8 opponents), and Master II
(8 opponents). Here is a small representation of what the "Choose Your
Destiny" screen looks like:

__ __ __
__ |__| |__| |__|
__ |__| |__| |__| |__|
|__| |__| |__| |__| |__|
|__| |__| |__| |__| |__|
|__| |__| |__| |__| |__|
|__| |__| |__| |__| |__|
|__| |__| |__| |__| |__|
|__| |__| |__| |__| |__|
| | | | | | | | |__|
Novice Beginner Warrior Master Master II

If you'd like, press the "Start" button to rotate the towers, altering the
order of characters you will fight. This is useful if there's a character
in a tower that you especially don't like to fight. Simply rotate the tower
until you find a Battle Plan with that character not included in the order.
Shinnok is at the top of every tower, as he is the boss of MK4.


================================================================
VIII. STAGES:
The stages are extremely detailed, and are nothing short of
spectacular. They are beautiful to look at, very inspiring,
and help to set the tone of the game. All of the stages are
just one large circle, with many, many details.
Updated: March 12th
================================================================

- Goro's Lair:
* 3D version of the classic MK1 stage.
* Four Entrances into the fighting area.
* Lit candles glowing in the background.
* Yellow eyes of foreign creatures are found lurking in the
shadows in the background.
* Large boulders are scattered around the stage for throwing.
* STAGE FATALITY:
The Goro's Lair Stage Fatality is much like the Kombat Tomb
Fatality in MK2. The character uppercuts his opponent, and the
camera angle changes revealing many sharp spikes on the ceiling.
The opponent then goes flying straight for them before slamming
into them and sticking on the ceiling. If you hold DOWN on both
joysticks while your opponent is impaled on the spikes, they'll
slowly slide off before falling back to the ground, a bloody mess.

- The Well:
* Has an opening in the center with a large flame surrounded by
windows with more fire. The camera "zooms" in before the
fight begins before each match.
* Ashes are all over the ground, flies up when stepped on,
even more fly up when fallen on.
* Decapitated heads are scattered around the stage for throwing.
* Stone carvings on the walls sometimes show the heads of the
MK4 Design Team.

- The Rain Stage:
* Its a large rock platform type structure that reaches sky-level.
* Many mountains and other platforms surround the large platform.
* Lightning flashes and thunder claps randomly appear in the sky,
and it's raining.
* A silhouette of a face appears in the sky every once and awhile
during a lightning strike.

- The Snake Stage:
* Boasts a green look
* In the distance is a green inner-lit skull with the silhouette
of a person chained inside, struggling to escape.
* In the center of the stage is a large convex circle with a slit,
like a reptilian eye, with green light coming from the slit.
* A large snake replica lines the room where the wall meets the floor.

- The Elder Gods:
* Boasts a blue look
* A blue MK Dragon logo is carved into the wall.
* On both sides opposite the Dragon logo are 2 more walls
with stars carved into them.
* There are two openings to the stage, both looking out into the
sky, where there are two blue, moving, faces across from eachother.
They have many facial expressions. They smile, and from time to time,
boast an evil face, often during fatalities.

- The Tomb:
* Purple sky
* A skull has been carved into the wall, and you can see the purple
sky through its holes, with gray clouds scrolling by.
* Body under the skull laying on a platform against the wall with a
purple cloth over it.
* Coffins are placed against the wall on opposite sides of the room.
* Large spiked balls are scattered around the stage for throwing.
* Large pots are in the 4 corners of the room, burning with fire.

- The Dojo:
* Developed by Josh Tsui
* Originally created for MK Mythologies, but converted for MK4.
* All kinds of banners & signs with Chinese and MK insignias.
* Through the windows you see that its raining outside.
* Represents a Shaolin Temple.

- The Living Forest:
* You're much more out in the open than in MK2. The characters
are further from the trees.
* It seems as though the stage is a little too bright, with
bright green grass.
* Not as gloomy as it was in MK2.
* A couple of the faces on the trees were molded from Ed Boon's face,
lead programmer in MK4.
* The trees still open and close their mouths, and roar.
No secret characters have been spotted peeking out from a
tree... yet. :)

- The Prison Stage:
* Developed by Josh Tsui
* Originally created for MK Mythologies, but converted for MK4.
* A spotlight is constantly hovering over each character,
providing for some shadow effects.
* STAGE FATALITY:
The character picks you up over his head, with one hand
grabbing your arm and the other grabbing your leg. He/she
begins to spin you around. The camera zooms in very close,
showing a close up of you spinning your opponent, and then
zooms back out. Once enough speed has been picked up, he/she
lets go, and you go flying straight for the large ventilation
fan in the background, before hitting it straight on, body
parts and blood shooting all over the stage. Your opponent
looks on. Finally, the opponents decapitated head goes flying
straight for the camera, before hitting it making a large blood
splat on the camera.
* The ground, as well as most of the walls are made entirely
of steel.
* There are numerous air vents and a huge spinning ventilation fan.
* The large ventilation fan in the background slowly picks up
speed as the round progresses.

IX. STORYLINE:
MK4's Introduction Storyline, Spoken by Rayden.
Updated: September 8th
================================================================


"Thousands of years ago in a battle with the fallen elder god known
as Shinnok, I was responsible for the death of an entire civilization.
To rid all realms of Shinnok's menace I waged a war that plunged the
earth into centuries of darkness and banished Shinnok to a place called
the Netherealm. Now after Shao Kahn's defeat at the hands of Earth's
warriors, Shinnok has managed to escape his confines of the Netherealm.
The war is now being fought once again, and this time it can be won by
mortals."

- Rayden

all exactly the same. In fact, they can differ in many ways and all
have different moves. Each one takes time to get used to and use
effectively. Below are moves for each character's weapon. Over the
course of the game, the character can lose his/her weapon and subsequently
use a different weapon, gaining it's moves and abilities.

balance. He then uses both hands to tug at your leg as hard as he
can, while you're stumbling around on one foot. After a few tugs,
the leg comes tearing off, with blood shooting out of your hip
and the decapitated leg. Quan Chi then takes a swing at you
with your leg, hitting you to the ground, still bleeding. He then
beats you with it repeatedly. Each time the opponent makes an
attempt to get up, he/she gets knocked back down by the leg.

[Description: Tanya jumps up on top of your shoulders, just as
if she was doing her breaker move. The camera pans upward,
showing an "above the head" view of Tanya sitting on her
opponent's shoulders, with his/her head between her legs.
Then, she twists her legs counterclockwise, turning the
opponents head with her. Only this time, instead of just
hyperextending it out of place as it is in her breaker,
the head dangles there, and bobbles around on the opponent's neck,
making cracking and crunching noises.]

* Goro's Lair Stage Fatality: F, F, F, LP (Close; Goro's Lair Only)
[Description: Tanya uppercuts his opponent, and the
camera angle changes revealing many sharp spikes on the ceiling.
The opponent then goes flying straight for them before slamming
into them and sticking on the ceiling.]

TIP: If you hold DOWN on both joysticks while your opponent is
impaled on the spikes, they'll slowly slide off before
falling back to the ground, a bloody mess.

* Prison Stage Fatality: B, F, D, HP (Close; Prison Stage Only)
[Description: Tanya picks you up, with one hand
grabbing your arm and the other grabbing your leg. She begins to
spin you around. Once enough speed has been picked up, he/she
lets go, and you go flying straight for the large ventilation
fan in the background, before hitting it straight on, body parts
and blood shooting all over the stage. Finally, the opponents
decapitated head goes flying straight for the camera, before
hitting it making a large blood splat on the screen.]

XIII. SECRET CHARACTERS, CODES, and TRICKS
All of the secrets in Mortal Kombat 4.
Updated: February 14th

Index of Secret Characters, Codes, and Tricks Section:
1) MK4's Secret Characters
2) MK4 Tips and Tricks
3) MK4 Kombat Kodes
================================================================

--------------------------------------
1) MK4'S SECRET CHARACTERS
--------------------------------------
There are supposedly 3 total hidden character currently in Mortal Kombat
4. If there are more or less, time will only tell, but you can bet that
all of the hidden characters that are confirmed to be in the game will be
listed in this section.

1) "Meat" ----------
http://fighters.simplenet.com/mk/mk4/news/meat.jpg

HISTORY:
Discovered on: December 21st, 1997
Meat was said to originally be a glitch in Version 2.72 of MK4, which only
tested in Chicago. After Ed Boon posted "Meat Lives" on his website, the
rumor mill picked up speed, and before you know it he is playable in
Version 3 of MK4. Many people think he also came from a rumor in MK1 where
you'd be able to play as or versus the skeleton hanging in Goro's Lair.

FACTS:
1) Meat simply spoofs the moves of the character that you choose. So
after you've beaten the GROUP MODE and you select Scorpion afterwards,
Meat will be able to do all of Scorpion's moves and finishing moves.
2) Meat doesn't have an ending. Beating the game with him crashes the
system.
3) Meat was originally the model for the "skeleton" during certain
fatalities in which the opponent's skin would be ripped off,
revealing the bloody skeleton that is now known as "Meat". No one
knows why the MK4 Team decided to bring him to life.

PRIMARY WAY TO PLAY AS MEAT:
Here is a step-by-step way to play as "Meat" in MK4:
1) Choose the GROUP button at the bottom of the select screen during
a 1-on-1 Kombat Mode.
2) Defeat the GROUP mode by defeating your opponent with every one of
the players on the select screen grid.
3) Once the GROUP MODE has been beat, select any character, and when you
play, you'll be Meat, with the moves of the character you chose.
4) If you don't continue a game or if you lose, you can no longer be Meat.

ALTERNATE WAYS:
There are no alternate ways of playing as "Meat" at this point in time.
If alternate ways are discovered, they will be listed here.


--------------------------------------
2) MK4 TIPS and TRICKS
--------------------------------------
As with past MK games, there are a number of small secrets in MK4.
Some of them don't do much, and are just for entertainment, while
some others can actually be quite useful and can effect the gameplay.
Here's a list of the current tips and tricks in MK4.

1) Hold Start after doing the Goro's Lair Fatality with any character,
and Dan Forden (MK4's Sound Programmer) will say his classic "Toasty!"

2) Hold Down on both joysticks after doing the Goro's Lair Fatality
with any character, and the victim will slide off the spikes and
fall back to the ground, a bloody mess.

3) Hold Start during Scorpion's "Breath of Death" fatality, and
Dan Forden (MK4's Sound Programmer) will say "Toasty! 3D!"

4) If you wait for an extended amount of time at the
"Select Method of Kombat" screen, the announcer will say
"What are you waiting for!?"

5) Press Start at the "Choose your Destiny" screen to rotate the
towers for an alternate line-up of opponents.

6) At the end of the credits, there is a message at the end that reads:

"Mortal Kombat ha5 been brought to you by Midway."

Many people consider this a teaser for the possible Mortal Kombat 5.
Another teaser for MK5 involves the "The Greatest Warrior is..."
screen. If you wait long enough, the initials on the screen are
occasionally replaced with "MK5". It only shows it once, before
returning back to the original initials.

7) If you enter an offensive word at the "Greatest Warrior is..."
screen, such as "ASS" or "FUK", those initials will be replaced
with MK co-creator Ed Boon's initials, "EJB".


--------------------------------------
3) KOMBAT KODES
--------------------------------------
"Kombat Kodes" have been around since the introduction of the interactive
Versus Screen in MK3. When playing in 1-on-1 Kombat Mode, after selecting
your character, you'll be confronted with a screen with 6 small boxes at
the bottom, and the 2 characters you selected, about to face off.

_________________________
|P1 |P1 |P1 |P2 |P2 |P2 |
|LP |BLK|LK |LP |BLK|LK |
ппппппппппппппппппппппппп
P1 = Player 1 P2 = Player 2

The Kombat Kodes are made up of 6 numbers, each representing a box on the
VS. Screen. Player 1 controls the first 3 boxes by pressing LP for the
first one, BLK for the second one, and LK for the third one. Player 2
controls the last 3 boxes by pressing LP for the fourth one, BLK for the
fifth one, and LK for the sixth one. For example, if you had the code
423-665, Player 1 would press LP 4 times, BLK 2 times, and LK 3 times,
while Player 2 would press LP 6 times, BLK 6 times, and LK 5 times.

123-123 - One Hit Wins:
Both characters will begin the round on Danger, with only a sliver of
life remaining.

020-020 - Red Rain:
If done on the Rain Stage, it will rain Blood instead of water.

050-050 - Explosive Kombat:
If done in 2-on-2 Kombat, when each of the first set of players loses,
they'll explode.

002-002 - Invincible Weapons:
Both players start the round with their weapon drawn, and it can't be
knocked out of their hands.

100-100 - Disable throws:
Neither of the players can throw.

111-111 - Free Weapon:
Random Weapons fall from the sky for anyone to pick up.

222-222 - Random Weapon:
Each character starts the round with a random weapon drawn.

333-333 - Randper Kombat:
Each character randomly impersonates different characters
throughout the rounds.

444-444 - Drawn Weapons:
Each character starts with their own weapon already drawn.

555-555 - Many Weapons:
Lots of various weapons are laying all over the ground for anyone
to pick up.

666-666 - Silent Kombat:
The same as in MK3, where no music plays during battle.
                               
002-002 - Permanent Weapons:
Both Characters have permanently drawn
weapons that never drop to the ground.

012-012 - Noob Saibot Mode:
Appears to do nothing at all at this
point in time.

110 110 - Throwing & Maximum Damage Disabled:
Throwing and the Maximum Damage system are both disabled.

011 011 - Goro's Lair:
Fight in the Goro's Lair Stage.

022 022 - The Well:

XIV. CHARACTER ENDINGS
Each of the Character's Endings in Mortal Kombat 4.

I'd like to thank SirGalahad
and the Lin Kuei Headquarters
for the use of these MK4 Character Endings.

Updated: January 13th
================================================================

********************************
KAI
********************************
Kai is standing at the top of a grassy ledge of a mountain on a partly
cloudy day. Raiden teleports in from behind him, and they begin to talk.

You fought well, Kai. You are now a true Shaolin Warrior.

Thanks, Raiden. But I am not interested in becoming a Shaolin
Warrior anymore. I've got too many of my own problems to deal with.

What will you do next?

I don't know... Wander the earth, search for my soul. That kind of
thing...

[Raiden gives Kai his Lightning Staff.]

Well, perhaps you could use this on your journey.

Your Lightning Staff?

It holds the power of Thunder and Lightning. Wield it wisely, for
it can show you the way to immortality.

Thank you, Raiden. I will not fail.


********************************
RAIDEN
********************************
Raiden floats up into the clouds and sees a light. It is the home of the
Elder Gods. He sees some of the Gods appear before him, and they speak
to him.

Raiden, for many ages you have protected the Earth Realm from
the forces of evil. You have earned your place among us.
Before your dissension into the Patheon of elder Gods, you
must choose your successor to protect your Earth.

With the aid of Earth's mortals, I have once again managed to
defeat Shinnok and his minions. I choose Fujin. He will guide
the mortals of Earth as they move into the next millennium.


********************************
SHINNOK
********************************
Shinnok and Raiden are in The Tomb stage. Raiden is floating helplessly
in the air under Shinnok's control.

For millions of years, I suffered in the bowels of the
Netherealm. You, Thunder God, are responsible for my
suffering. Now the piteous mortals of Earth will pay
for my grievance.

You turned against your fellow Elder Gods. You betrayed your
title. You deserve much worse.

But it's too late, Raiden. I win! With the other Elder Gods
out of the way, I will take my rightful place as ruler of all
eternity. I can already feel the power surging from within!

You're mad!

Farewell, Thunder God!

[Shinnok laughs and raises his hands. Lightning comes out and strikes
Raiden. After a while, Raiden explodes into pieces.]


********************************
LIU KANG
********************************
Liu Kang is standing in the Dojo stage.

Liu Kang: The war is over. I once again defended my title as Champion of
Mortal Kombat, and defended the realm of earth. I have failed to
save the realm of Edenia. In doing so, I have also lost Kitana
forever.

[Suddenly, a portal opens and Kitana walks through. She is a black palette
swapped Tanya.]

Kitana?

Yes, Liu Kang. It is I.

I thought you were gonna...

[Kitana interrupts him.]

With Shinnok's destruction, you have not only saved the earth, but
you have saved my own realm. For that, I can never repay you.

Knowing you survived is all I need.

As heir to the throne of my realm, I offer you the chance to rule
at my side, as King of Edenia, forever.

I cannot accept your offer. I belong here on earth as Champion
of Mortal Kombat.

Then, I wish you good luck, Liu Kang, on all your journeys.

Goodbye, Princess Kitana.

[Kitana walks back through the Portal, and it closes.]


********************************
REPTILE
********************************
Reptile and Quan Chi stand in the Snake Stage. Reptile
bows to Quan Chi and gets down on one knee in servitude. As the
conversation progresses the camera pans around the two in a circle.

Quan Chi, I have served our Lord Shinnok well in the
destruction of Earth warriors.

Yes, you are most proficient in all your efforts.

Now I wish to return in time to my home world before it was
destroyed at the hands of Shao Kahn. As the new ruler supreme
of all reality. Shinnok alone has the power to grant my request.

You dare make such a perpetuous request of your lord and
master?

Is it a simple request for one of such great power.

It is also not worth his attention.

[Reptile stands up and yells at Quan Chi in defiance.]

I demand it! If it were not for warriors such as myself
his attack against Raiden's forces would have failed!

Perhaps you should convey your feelings to Shinnok yourself!

What?

[Shinnok teleports in front of Reptile and grabs him by the throat,
lifting him off the ground.]

Infidel! You are in no position to demand anything! I could
kill you with a mere thought!

[choking] But, we had a deal!

[The camera pans out and shows Shinnok choking Reptile.]

A deal? I am not a God of my word, Reptile! All deals are off!

[Shinnok releases a blast of energy. Reptile explodes into pieces.]


********************************
SCORPION
********************************
Scorpion and Sub-Zero are in Goro's Lair. Scorpion stands over Sub-Zero's
body.

I defeated you, Sub-Zero. I have avenged the death of my
family and clan. Now my soul can finally rest.

Your soul will never rest, Scorpion. The Lin Kuei may have
been responsible for your murder, but your family's true killer
still remains free.

If you are not the murderer, then who is?

[Quan Chi walks up behind Scorpion.]

I am the one you seek. To defeat my nemesis, Sub-Zero, I needed
the power of a specter. You've done my bidding well, Scorpion.
But now I must return you to the Netherealm.

[Quan Chi opens a portal into the Netherealm. A bright white light appears
behind him.]

NEVER!

[Scorpion grabs Quan Chi and they both are engulfed in the portal. They are
then taken to Scorpion's Lair in UMK3. Quan Chi looks around and then
stares at the screen.]

Quan Chi: NO!!!


********************************
JAX
********************************
Sonya and Jarek are standing at the top of a grassy ledge of a mountain
on a partly cloudy day.

It's over, Jarek. Shinnok is dead. The good guys's won. You're
coming back with me.

Never, Sonya! I agreed to help defeat Shinnok, not turn myself in
to the Special Forces! The Black Dragon lives on!

[Jarek begins walking toward Sonya, who in turn begins backing away from
him. WIDE SHOT AND CRESENDO: They are atop a high cliff. Sonya has
backed to the edge.]

The Black Dragon died with Kano. You're the last one, Jarek.

NEVER!

[Jarek dives toward Sonya. Sonya backs out of the way and Jarek goes over
the cliff. Sonya looks over, then turns away. She takes out her radio.]

Come in, Major Briggs. This is Lieutenant Sonya Blade...

[From the edge of the cliff, Jarek is seen climbing up. He grabs Sonya
by the leg and tosses her over the cliff.]

[Shot of the radio lying on the ground.]

(From the radio) Sonya? This is Major Briggs! Come in.
Sonya, this is Jax! Are you there?

[Jarek's steps on the radio crushing it. Silence. Jarek laughs to
himself and walks on.]

Going somewhere, Jarek?

[WIDE SHOT: Jarek has walked into Jax, who grabs Jarek by the neck.]

JAX! But I thought you were..

Thought I was what? Dead? Like my partner you just dropped off
the cliff?

[Jax walks back to the edge and holds Jarek over it.]

[OVERHEAD SHOT: Jax holding Jarek over the cliff.]

I...I'm sorry, Jax! Wait! Don't drop me!

Wait?

I promise...

Too late, Jarek!

You can't drop me! You have to uphold the law! You have to
arrest me! Wait! Wait! This is brutality! You can't do it!

Wrong, Jarek. This is not a brutality. This is a fatality!

[Jax releases Jarek. We see him falling as the scene fades out.]


********************************
REIKO
********************************
Reiko is standing in The Well stage. A portal opens up, and Reiko steps
through it. Thats it.


********************************
JOHNNY CAGE
********************************
There is an awards ceremony going on. Johnny Cage walks up to a podium.
The crowd cheers madly for him.

Wow! I don't know what to say! I guess I should start by
thanking all my fans out there!

[More cheers.]

But that's enough of the mushy stuff. I mean let's
get real here, huh? When am I going to get some real competition?

[Silence from the crowd.]

Come on, don't get silent now. Where are all the cheers?

[The audience begins to boo.]

Hey wait a minute! I'm your number one guy!

[Audience continues booing, but now have started to throw things at Cage.]

[Various comments from the crowd, "Boo! Get off! You suck!"]

I'm gonna remember this! Ow! Hey, Come on! Ow! I saw that Arnold!
Hey cut it out!


********************************
JAREK
********************************
Sonya and Jarek are standing at the top of a grassy ledge of a mountain
on a partly cloudy day.

It's over, Jarek. Shinnok is dead. The good guys's won. You're
coming back with me.

Never, Sonya! I agreed to help defeat Shinnok, not turn myself in
to the Special Forces! The Black Dragon lives on!

[Jarek begins walking toward Sonya, who in turn begins backing away from
him. WIDE SHOT AND CRESENDO: They are atop a high cliff. Sonya has
backed to the edge.]

The Black Dragon died with Kano. You're the last one, Jarek.

NEVER!

[Jarek dives toward Sonya. Sonya backs out of the way and Jarek goes over
the cliff. Sonya looks over, then turns away. She takes out her radio.]

Come in, Major Briggs. This is Lieutenant Sonya Blade...

[From the edge of the cliff, Jarek is seen climbing up. He grabs Sonya
by the leg and tosses her over the cliff.]

[Shot of the radio lying on the ground.]

(From the radio) Sonya? This is Major Briggs! Come in.
Sonya, this is Jax! Are you there?

[Jarek's steps on the radio crushing it. Silence. Jarek laughs to
himself and walks on.]


********************************
TANYA
********************************
Tanya and Liu Kang are running through an underground passage, which looks
like it could be something attached to The Well stage. Tanya is giving
instructions to Liu Kang as they run.

Follow me, Liu Kang. Raiden has asked that I lead you to him.

What about the others?

He has something special planned for them.

Tanya, what's going on?

[Tanya laughs.]

I don't know what Kitana saw in you. Can't you see, Liu
Kang? This is a trap!

What?!

[Liu Kang turns as a wall opens. We see Quan Chi and Shinnok in the room
that opens. Shinnok is hovering in the air.]

Welcome, Shaolin Warrior. Your thunder god is beaten, earth's
warriors destroyed. We obliterated the forces of light. Do you
wish to beg the mercy of your new master, the lord Shinnok?

Never, sorcerer!

[Liu Kang performs a flying kick toward Shinnok but is blown up by him in
mid-air.]

[Quan Chi laughs.]

Fool.


********************************
FUJIN
********************************
Fujin is standing in the Elder God stage, and is talking to one of the
large blue faces.

Our forces of light have defeated Shinnok, now I must return
to my duties as Earth's god of wind.

You have served your elders well, Fujin. But we have a new
mission for you.

[Raiden teleports in behind Fujin.]

Raiden?

Our battle with Shinnok's forces is over. I must move on
to my new position as an Elder God. And you, Fujin, you
must take my former position as protector of Earth.

Raiden, it will be my honor to succeed you.

Take special care of the mortals of Earth, they are a great
people but have the ability to self destruct. Be patient,
and offer your wisdom as guidance.

Farewell, Thunder God. I will not fail you.

That is why I picked you.


********************************
SUB-ZERO
********************************
Sub-Zero and Scorpion are in The Well stage. Sub-Zero stands
over Scorpion's body.

The battle is finished! Your quest for vengeance is
over Scorpion!

You cannot kill a dead man! You have defeated my physical
form but my soul is eternal! You will pay for the massacre
of my clan and family!

[Sub-Zero is attacked from behind by Quan Chi. He falls to the floor, and
looks up at Quan Chi.]

Welcome, Sub-Zero. Like your brother before you, you have
serve my purposes well.

I serve no one! Not the Lin Kuei, and not you!

[Quan Chi stomps on Sub-Zero's Chest and looks down at him. The camera
slowly pans from the back to the front of Quan Chi while he is talking.]

Scorpion took my trust in exchange for freedom from the
Netherealm. But true, I have no intention of fulfilling.
By killing your brother it saved us the trouble. Both you
and Scorpion were pawns for Shinnok.

[When the panning stops we see Scorpion standing behind Quan Chi.]

[Scorpion lifts Quan Chi in the air like Fujin's Wind Lift.]

Scorpion!!

[Scorpion shoots a green ball of energy at the helpless Quan Chi.
He explodes. Scorpion and Sub-Zero face each other.]

Our battle is finished. You are now free from my curse.
Farewell, Lin Kuei warrior.


********************************
QUAN CHI
********************************
Quan Chi and Shinnok stand in The Well stage. Shinnok, victorious,
is talking to Quan Chi.

In payment for your loyal services, Quan Chi,
I grant you the gift of your existence.

My existence?

Understand, sorcerer, I consume all energies, including the
life forces of all that live, but I shall spare you.

If it weren't for me, you will still be a tortured soul
rotting in the pits of the Netherealm.

You dare question me?

I do more than question you, Shinnok. I challenge you!

Then you shall die!

[Shinnok mutters something as he throws a pink magic missile at
Quan Chi. The magic missile touches Quan Chi but fizzles without
harming him.]

What!

Your powers are useless against me.

How can this be?

[Quan Chi holds up Shinnok's amulet.]

I am in possession of your royal sacred amulet. Years
ago I delivered to you an exact duplicate, while I retained
the original. I even fooled Raiden. Now, I am ruler supreme
and you, Elder God, are finished!

NO!!!

[Quan Chi uses the amulet to shoot a green missile at Shinnok.
It touches Shinnok and he explodes.]


********************************
SONYA
********************************
Sonya and Jarek are standing at the top of a grassy ledge of a mountain
on a partly cloudy day.

It's over, Jarek. Shinnok is dead. The good guys's won. You're
coming back with me.

Never, Sonya! I agreed to help defeat Shinnok, not turn myself in
to the Special Forces! The Black Dragon lives on!

[Jarek begins walking toward Sonya, who in turn begins backing away from
him. WIDE SHOT AND CRESENDO: They are atop a high cliff. Sonya has
backed to the edge.]

The Black Dragon died with Kano. You're the last one, Jarek.

NEVER!

[Jarek dives toward Sonya. Sonya backs out of the way and Jarek goes over
the cliff. Sonya looks over, then turns away. She takes out her radio.]

Come in, Major Briggs. This is Lieutenant Sonya Blade, over.

Sonya, glad to hear you're alive.

You actually sound happy to hear from me, Jax. Things got boring?

Not since you followed Liu Kang into the Netherealm.

Well it's over now, I'm returning to base. 10-4, Jax.

[The scene fades out.]
