Mortal Kombat II Closes with a Fatal Tease for MK III

TL;DR
Mortal Kombat II ends with Earthrealm’s hard-won victory after Katana betrays Shao Kahn and delivers the kill, but at great cost: Liu Kang, Jax, and Cole Young die. The film then hints at resurrection and longer-term plans for these characters (via revenants or time travel) and uses the controversy of death to set up a path to Mortal Kombat III, with writer Jeremy Slater confirming big plans for the future and citing fan response as shaping the next installment.
