The game features no endings and no final boss. In this version, Noob Saibot was made unselectable, but Kai, Reptile, Jarek and Tanya were added to the selectable characters while retaining 3 "?" character slots. The first version of the game to officially enter arcades was Revision 1. Each character had a weapon and one Fatality.

The selectable characters were comprised of Shinnok, Fujin, Scorpion, Raiden, Sonya, Liu Kang, Sub-Zero (masked but missing his scar), Quan Chi and Noob Saibot, along with 6 "?" character slots. The game was noticeably incomplete, featuring many bugs and a relatively small selection of playable characters with few or no special moves. The first incarnation of the game, the "Road Tour" incarnation, was toured around America to hype the game's official release. Sektor was chosen because he is fought the least of factory unlocked characters in arcade mode.īlood spatter does not stay on screen for specials that cause blood spatter - this is to alleviate game crashes in 2v2 and endurance matches, and stages that are memory intensive.Mortal Kombat 4 saw a handful of revisions in its arcade lifetime.
