Sub-Zero_Wraith
BANALITY
I summed up story mode... there are still a lot of details not included in this spoiler. As someone who is an avid follower of the story mode, I can honestly say... reading this has made me want this game A MILLION TIMES MORE.
Cyrax is human initially—at least in story mode.
Sektor becomes Grandmaster of the Lin Kuei after defeating his father (former LK GM)
Liu Kang wins the first tournament after defeating Tsung.
To save face, Tsung offers a plan to Kahn for the takeover of Earthrealm.
A tournament in Outworld. If Outworld wins, Kahn invades Earthrealm.
If Earthrealm wins, Kahn must give up on the invasion.
Tundra is in story mode—wondering Outworld with younger Sub and Smoke.
Smoke meets up with Raiden and company, which leads to him never being turned into a cyborg.
Because Smoke was never caught, younger Sub was caught and was automated.
Kitana is advised to go to the flesh pits to reveal the “truth”.
Kitana meets up with Mileena in the flesh pit and is disgusted at the sight.
Shang Tsung and Quan Chi unite for a cameo of the Deadly Alliance to fight Liu Kang.
Kung Lao is killed by Shao Kahn (conclusion drawn from dialogue) after Earthrealm wins the tournament.
Shao Kahn is “killed” but it is shortly revealed that he really isn’t dead, thanks, in part, to Quan Chi.
Tsung, after losing again, offers another solution for Kahn to invade Earthrealm.
Tsung resurrects Sindel, only she is completely loyal to Kahn, thus allowing the invasion.
Kabal is burned. (Apparently this is shown in the story.)
Stryker is sought out by Nightwolf because he is one of Raiden’s chosen warriors.
Kabal does not rejoin the Black Dragon. (Speculation from text)
“Raiden has killed Motaro” (Explains why he’s not in the game.)
Sub-Zero, Unit LK-52O
Sub-Zero, however, still has his soul/spirit.
Someone named “Haokah” is mentioned multiple times. (I believe they are referring to Raiden)
Sektor recalibrates Unit LK-52O’s “neuromodulators”.
Bi-Han and Kuai Liang meet each other. “Restored? You and I both. We are flawed copies of our former selves.”
“Pilamaya” is mentioned. (I believe they are referring to Nightwolf.)
Raiden seeks help from the Elder Gods who refuse to help on a technicality.
“Invasion is not itself a transgression. It is the merger of the realms that is proscribed.”
Because of the lack of help from the Elder Gods, Raiden seeks Quan Chi for help.
Kang believes Raiden to be delusional and takes matter into his own hands.
Raiden offers the fallen’s souls to Quan Chi in exchange for his assistance.
Quan Chi reveals that Kahn has already given him the soul’s as “payment for Netherrealm’s allegiance.”
Kang’s faith in Raiden falls greater when he returns from the Netherrealm without Quan Chi’s alliance.
Raiden states “We must allow Shao Kahn to merge the realms!”
Raiden kills Kang to prevent him from stopping Kahn from successfully merging the realms.
Shao Kahn successfully merges Earthrealm with Outworld.
Kahn is then punished for breaking the decree of the Elder Gods.
Closing Statements:
Unknown: Your plan worked to perfection, Lord Shinnok.
Shinnok: Shao Kahn was blinded by rage. How easily he was convinced that the Elder Gods would ignore his merging the realms.
Unknown: Yet the thunder god still lives.
Shinnok: No matter. Neither Earthrealm nor Outworld can now withstand the Netherrealm’s onslaught.
Either Shinnok or Unknown: It is time. Soon I will be free. Earthrealm and Outworld will be ours.
EDIT:
Please keep in mind, I've constructed this summary from my interpretation of the script that was posted (http://www.trmk.org/forums/showthread.php/15742-Warning-Storymode-Spoiler.) by whtillnvrb .
This script did not include who is saying what, but I used a little bit of common sense and a little bit of intellectual intuitiveness to construct this summary.
My point being, this information is obviously subject to change (the info released on the demo is likely older and may not be the final release) and this information, while may not be 100% accurate, this is my best educated guess based on the script.
