During their journey, all of Liu Kang's and Kung Lao's allies are captured. Throughout their journeys, they meet several allies and learn of another person who wants Earth the Emperor of Outworld, Shao Kahn. They are guided by Raiden and assisted by Johnny Cage. Liu Kang and Kung Lao journey through the nightmarish realm of Outworld to stop the sorcerer's plot. If successful, Shang Tsung will conquer Earth without winning a Mortal Kombat tournament, which is cheating. Raiden confirms that Shang Tsung is trying to lure Liu Kang and his allies to Outworld where he can order his henchmen to attack them and bide his time for power. Although the Tarkatans are defeated, Baraka captures Sonya Blade. However, Baraka and the Tarkatan attack the Wu Shi Academy. Upon arrival, Raiden awards his warriors for saving Earthrealm. Liu Kang and Kung Lao, however, have to fight their way to another portal to get to Wu Shi Academy. Everyone, except Liu Kang and Kung Lao, evacuates and escape back to the Wu Shi Academy. Thunder god Raiden appears afterwards and warns the remaining fighters to get off the island palace because it is collapsing into the sea. With Goro distracting everyone else, Shang Tsung creates a portal to Outworld and retreats. The Earthrealm's Shaolin monk Liu Kang defeats Shang Tsung, and the warrior Goro comes to his defense. The battle rages furiously on Shang Tsung's island fortress in the Lost Sea, as the sorcerer watches the fighters his soldiers to protect Earthrealm.

And today I'm gonna be reviewing the third and (so far) final Mortal Kombat action-adventure title.
