Video GamesEdit

Delta Force: Black Hawk DownEdit

In game, sometimes if you kill an enemy in the Level 1, your partner will say Toasty!, clear reference to Dan Forden's Toasty.

Bally's 1994 World Cup ChampionshipEdit

Raiden had a cameo appearance in a pinball machine via bonus round.

NBA Jam Tournament EditionEdit

Raiden, Reptile, Scorpion and Sub-Zero appeared as playable characters in the Sega Saturn conversion. See Image Reference
- Keri Hoskins (Sonya), Ed Boon, Sal Divita, John Tobias and some others from the MK team are also playable characters in NBA JAM TE. See Image Reference
The character select is the same one from MK2 when using these characters. When the characters have the ball, the sound clips from MK1 (excluding Reptile who uses a similar clip from MK1) are heard. See Image Reference
When the characters do the super dunks, they are heard screaming trademark attacks (in the case of Raiden, the babbling from his move Torpedo).
The game was meant to have an unreleased MK-themed court. See Image Reference

Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri ConflictEdit

Raiden appeared in the game as an unlockable character (which coincidentally also included a fatality system similar to MK's). See Image Reference
- Raiden will occasionally taunt his opponent by stating that they "fight like Johnny Cage.".
- Shao Kahn's voice is also an alternate to the default announcer.
Two of the challenges are called "Unreal Combat". The challenges involved 3 people at once rather than the traditional 2. All 3 people use staffs for their melee weapons.
Some characters have characteristics related to MK:
- The contestant "Karasu", literally does Liu Kang's flying kick as a special move - with voice and everything
- The contestant "Cyrus'", stomp move was eventually brought to Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance as Hsu Hao's special move, naming the stomp after Cyrus himself.
- Flint's special is the Speed Dash, identical to Kabal's spin move.
- Trixi's invisibility came from Reptile/Smoke, to disappear from the point of view and radar.

Somewhere there is written "FATALITY" in blood.

When Jacob uses the "Pull", he sometimes screams "¡Get over here!". This is a reference about Scorpion.

Rico, the protagonist of the game, shares some similarities with Scorpion. His primary weapon is a grappling hook which he can attach to surfaces or use as a weapon to pull his enemies. His codename during the game is Scorpio due to the scorpion logo on his back

In the game, Nathan "Rad" Spencer uses a move with his bionic arm which acts like Scorpion's Bloody Spear, even the famous line "Get Over Here!" is used.

The character Pyro will sometimes mumble "Toasty!" after killing someone with the flame-thrower.

Monster GalaxyEdit

In this Facebook game, a Moga named Scorpius is designed after Scorpion's MK1 outfit, to further mimic him, its promotion link also says "Get Over Here!" it even has a move called "Hand Snake," a nod to Scorpion's spear which was once mistaken as a snakelike creature. Ironically, its element type is ice as opposed to fire. See Image Reference

World of WarcraftEdit

When Dwarves do target practice outside of Kharanos, they shout "Mortar Combat!" in precisely the same manner "Mortal Kombat!" is shouted in the soundtrack to the movie based on the video game.

Warcraft IIIEdit

Dreadlord's warcry is "Your soul is mine!" (a reference from the first Mortal Kombat movie).
Like in World of Warcraft, these Dwarves' lines were used by the Dwarven Mortar Team unit as well.

A character named Raijin Thunderkeg is possibly based on Raiden because both of them are divine beings of electricity and the storms. Wear certain hats, and must take a mortal form to participate a battle.

Raiden and Shinnok appear as unlockables characters.

Duke Nukem ForeverEdit

While Duke is kicking the head of an alien across to a football pole, he claims: "It's gooood. Duke Wins! Fatality" ^[1]

True Crime: Streets of LAEdit

During slow-motion mode, the player can launch a special kung-fu attack by pressing a button combo in a short amount of time. Nick Kang (whose name is most likely based on Liu Kang's) will sometimes shout "Finish Him!" as he executes the move.

Blacksite: Area 51Edit

A Mortal Kombat reference is also present in this game. At one point in the game, you'll find yourself at a drive-in movie. At the back, there's a building where the film projector is. On the first floor, when you enter, to your left there will be an arcade machine that says Mortal Kombat on it. It has the official logo. It also sports some of the art from the original arcade machine. It even sounds like the fighter selection music. See Image Reference
