The video shows parts of the story mode featuring Mileena, which takes place 25 years after the events of 2011's Mortal Kombat.

Outworld has become a larger threat and new fighters joining the ranks to battle Mileena's rebel army are Jax's daughter Jacqueline Briggs, Kenshi's son Takashi Takeda and Kung Jin who is a descendant of Kung Lao.
