Hey you guys, I know there has been alot of discussions on whether shao Khan is dead or not, so Im here to point out something very obvious that hasn't been discused and very overlooked.

Did you know that in Kitana's ending, It sais in clear audio loud and clear shao Khan is dead? Along with Goro? Now I know people will say that we havent seen the last of shao Khan, and perhaps youre correct, however what seems to be interesting about Kitanas ending is that it is cannon, proven by the fact that Noob Saibot did kill Goro. I may not be able to prove this, but in my heart of hearts I think this is the last we have seen of shao khan, along with Goro and Lui Kang. Please dont flame me I know this is big, however Ide like youre comments on Kitanas ending where shao khan is implicated as dead. Thanks for youre comments.

Well I didn't need to see Kitana's ending to get the idea that Kahn is dead.

Though I very much hope he will return, same for Liu Kang.

Goro can stay dead though.

Personally i dont care wether or not lui kang. shoa kahn and goro are dead. and they probably are for good, but MK:DA did good without them anyway, so unless for some reason they are your favourite characters, just forget about it and move on.

Yes I whole heartedly agree with the past two statements.

The Dragon king would be wise not to share the stage with shao Khan. I dont think there is any more room in the story for shao khan.

The only possible scenario in my mind is that when reiko put on the mask of shao khan at the end in mk4, and he got killed in mk5, not the real Khan, thus the title MK: deception. But thats a long shot, plus this is the wrong forum to discuss such things, so I'll keep it at that.

Just wondering how shao khan could be alive at this point of the cannon ending of Kitana in mk5 sais otherwise.

I agree with you on the most part. I remember fight night a while back and I remember that the MK team said that we haven't seen the last of Shao Khan. To me this means he could come back from the dead just like Johnny Cage has. To me right now Khan is dead and he may come back for future MK games.

I think that’s a good theory. I mean, I hope I don’t see Shao Khan again (he was cool, but overused, I hope he is dead) but, people have forgotten all about Reiko’s ending.

Now, what if the Shao Khan, Shang Tsug and Quan Chi killed was NOT the real Khan. I mean, it could have been Reiko, and Kahn could still be alive but hiding.

I know it sounds very stupid but I think this would be cool and people should focus a little in Reiko’s ending, even though I don’t want Khan in Mk6.

It doesnt sound stupid at all. Matter of fact, Im an average fan of shao khan, dont like him, dont hate him. But Reikos ending and what the mk team said in fight night means there is a 50 50 chance he is alive. But without getting into mk6, Its hard to see shao khan as a subboss in any other game; Kinda of a spoiler but not, if the dragon king were to return, you have to use youre brain and say, hmm, will shao khan really share the stage in mk6 with a dragon king? so many questions to answer, and Im posotive it will be in mk6.

This is a pretty great theory you have harboring there Outworld. I was thinking something similar about the DA taking out Reiko instead of Kahn(due to the MKG ending), or Reiko is now stepping up and fronting as Kahn.

Many will say Shao Kahn is dead, get over it. The fact is, in MK, no one stays dead. They have already proven that they will bring characters back from the dead if they wish. Personally, i really hope they use Reiko in the next installment, whether they choose to kill him off and say that was him dressed as Kahn, or he just comes back as himself or Kahn. Only time will tell wink

Wow Outworld, I must say over these past couple of weeks I feel like your posting has been worthwhile and intelligently thought up. good jobs :)

I hope SK is dead. I mean his storyline sucks and hes just not that cool. In MK2 he was the freaking man. After that *points down*..down the slopes.

I think they need to push Shang Tsung or Quan Chi. Make them transform into something big and hideous someway or another. Shang Tsung and Quan Chi will always be my favorite pure bad guys. I hope they aren't so puny in the next game.

Well thanks for youre comments you guys, but here is a list of questions to ask..

- Why would reiko try to pretend he is shao khan?

- Was it to befriend Reptile?

- Did shao khan set him (reiko) up to do that?

- Where was shao Khan if it he really wasnt killed in MKDA?

- If shao khan is still alive, I cant wait to see his revenge against shang tsung and quan chi!

What a storyline for the next mk.

I know this is highly unlikely but if you think Shao Khan won't share the stage with dragon king he may just be a useable cahracter if put in the next game... he could be a temproary gogd guy to get the dragon king out of the way and once the dragon king is gone he'll go back to beinga jerk, or maybe he'll stay a good guy... as for Reiko he may just have been teh one that died.. no like i said it is highly unlikely ot ahppen but it just might...

Reiko more than likley wore that helmet as a sign of power. He could've fought against Kitana's forces and in that fight he could've been killed or he coul've survived. I highly doubt that it wasn't Saho Kahn in the throne. Plus there are size differences.

IMO Shao Kahn isn't that much of a bad guy he is outdated one time it was bigger = better he was bigger more powerful but slower. IMO he shouldn't comeback.

Here we go with canon. I agree Kahn is dead. I think it probably says it plain as day in konquest mode. I just hope he comes back but I know if he did it would not matter if Ed Boon himself said it was offical canon, a million people would still say it did not count (meanwhile saying other parts did)
