Trivia
The original game was supposed to be created around Jean-Claude Van Damme in a Bloodsport (1988) sort of theme. The deal didn't go through, and Van Damme starred in the movie Street Fighter (1994) based on the games of the same name. Mortal Kombat's character Johnny Cage was an "homage" to JCVD and has been one of the main characters in the canon. Now years later, JCVD is voicing Johnny Cage in this game (which will also make a JCVD skin available for Johnny Cage), coming full circle in the end. In a further bit of irony, Johnny Cage's primary voice actor, Andrew Bowen, portrayed Jean Claude Van Damme in a MadTV parody entitled "One True Impact".

Goofs
In Peacemaker's "Pest Control" Fatality, a butterfly comes out of the opponent's mouth, and Peacemaker accidentally kills the enemy trying to shoot it. However, in the show of origin, once a butterfly enters a host, the human is killed so the parasite can take control. The enemy should already be dead when the butterfly exits.

Quotes
[from trailer]
Liu Kang: You have chosen to defy peace, then you have chosen war with a god!

Mortal Kombat IS DEAD!....

I realized a long time ago that the developments of Mortal Kombat are real talkers. Mortal Kombat 1 just confirmed it. I can't be a fan of this series anymore. I'm tired of developers Mortal Kombat. This is not a Mortal Kombat, but a nightmare. The graphics are worse than in Mortal Kombat 11, the characters smile at each other for some reason, constantly crashes. It's not worth wasting your time on this at all. The ratings of the game are intentionally overestimated. She is not worthy of the award she received. It would be better if everything ended on Mortal Kombat 11. I do not know to what extent you need to sit in pink glasses to believe in MK1. That's it, Mortal Kombat is dead... I'm not even betting 0 out of 10.
