Looks like this time around we'll see more Scorpion/Sub-Zero goodness, will see Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa reprise his roll of Shang Tsung. Also shown in the trailer are Keshi, Styker, Raiden, Ermac, Mileena, Kitana, Kung Lao, Johnny Cage and Liu Kang. Remember back to the first season where we saw the likes of fan favorite characters like Sonya Blade, Jax, Johnny Cage, Kano, Cyrax, and Sektor to name a few. The first web series was somewhat controversial as many believed the initial teaser to be part of a big-screen franchise reboot of the movie franchise based off of the hit game series. However, when the developers announced it would in fact be a serial webseries many criticized the series and it's original take on these established characters origin stories and even their revised appearance in some cases.
Personally, a fresh look on the series from a "real-life" perspective was pretty cool. And infact, as the series progressed and gradually got better and better, I looked forward to each new episode. And in my opinion, the game series has been pretty dormant over the past several years (and since the release of the lasted MK game). So any decision to launch this movie into a big-screen type release would more than likely see it flop; in my opinion. But being a web-released series really makes it standout. As it is definitely one of the more "premium" style series on the web. And personally, I'd like to see more webseries like this one.
Anyways, if you haven't seen the new trailer, check it out below.
