Netherrealm Studios has released a video bio featuring the iconic Scorpion as he appears in the upcoming Mortal Kombat. The ninja spectre's canon storyline seems to remain the same, though new information in the way of Quan Chi being the individual responsible for bringing the hellspawn back to the world of the living has been added. Scorpion's history with Sub-Zero is well known, and assuming things remain unchanged, he has been deceived by Quan Chi into believing a lie.

User interactivity is also something which holds an emphasis with the new site in the form of Kombat Chat which seems to be bound to yet another Countdown which is expected to time out at somepoint during the 1st of November! The rules regarding this are as follows:

"The more you talk about your favorite character on his or her discussion board, the more power they accumulate. If your character gains more power than any other character at the end of each countdown, you will unlock a piece of exclusive content about that character."

Seeing as the site has just launched a lot of functionality is disabled in regards to being able to Register for exclusive content and the Forums have not yet been integrated. We assume this will come into effect very soon!
