Stuntwoman by profession, you've spent years throwing yourself off buildings, doubling for action heroes, and taking punches for the big screen. Then, an absurd offer comes your way: work as the stunt coordinator for Johnny Cage's new film, the undisputed king of martial arts cinema and trash-talk.
There's just one problem: what was supposed to be a set full of special effects turns into an actual battlefield when a group of warriors from another dimension show itself.
The objective? Kill Cage.
As you try to get him out of trouble (and also try not to bury him alive under the weight of his own ego), the sky tears open, and from a storm of lightning, Raiden, the God of Thunder, appears. With him are Kung Lao and Liu Kang, and the truth is more dangerous than it seems: Outworld has found a way to win Mortal Kombat without even fighting it.
If they can't defeat the Earthrealm Warriors in battle, they'll eliminate them before they even get a chance to enter the tournament.
Raiden can't let that happen.
Raiden explains to Johnny that he must win the Mortal Kombat tournament to save Earth from Outworld's domination. He tells him that Johnny is one of the champions destined to protect our world and that he must fight to stop the evil threatening the Earth.
What follows is a journey through dimensions, brutal battles, and moments of pure chaos. Johnny and you find yourselves fighting side by side, with him constantly throwing sarcastic remarks and movie references, while you desperately try not to get killed... or kill him yourself out of sheer exhaustion.
But when things get really serious, and the price becomes too high, will you two manage to remain the protagonists of your own story... or will it be a game over for good?
