One week after the crafty sorcerer Shang Tsung stole the spotlight from Shao Kahn with a Shadows teaser wallpaper, he returns this week in full high definition and detail. A second wallpaper featuring the sorcerer has been uploaded to the official Mortal Kombat Facebook, finishing off an opponent in his own throne room.

Much like last week, this wallpaper features Shang Tsung performing a version of his classic soul steal fatality. In this version, he seems to drain the opponent's soul through their mouth and eyes as the essence of his victim surrounds him. As hinted at last week, he does appear to be in what's assumed an alternate attire as his older self. This costume paints him as a bit more physically powerful than his original Mortal Kombat 1 incarnation. The red and gold motif recalls some of his attire from Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance as well. As mentioned last week, this fatality is very likely one of his in game fatalities, as all similar wallpapers for other characters released have been.

Be sure to stay tuned to MK Online as the week unfolds for there will likely be more Shang Tsung related material coming out over the next couple of weeks!
