Mortal Kombat 1: Where is Cole Young in Liu Kang’s New Universe?

Having been around for just over 30 years now, it’s only natural that the Mortal Kombat franchise has seen plenty of colorful characters come and go with each new entry. Much like any other great fighting game series, Mortal Kombat knocked it out of the park with its original roster, which contained a small cast of characters that would go on to feature in several later games in the franchise. And while some fighters haven’t really had the same staying power as others, Mortal Kombat 1 is giving some underrated characters another chance in the spotlight.
