After being released over six months some intrepid gamers have discovered a hidden <b>Survial Mode</b> in <a href="http://www.trmk.org/games/mortal_kombat_shaolin_monks/">Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks</a>.

The steps to perform this task are quite extensive and it is possible that it may actually be easier to do than we know so far, but that is something yet to be seen. Here is how you get to <b>Survial Mode</b>:
<ol><li>Start in Foundry
<li>Grab the Axe
<li>Go into the room with the lava. (You must break the wooden door to enter this area)
<li>Jump into the lava, then jump back out.
<li>Go into the room to the right of the save statue
<li>Smash the barrel at the end of the hall using the O button on PS2, or the B on Xbox
<li>Go up the ramp, and to the left.
<li>Smash the barrel on the right.
<li>Go to the area with the Nitara weapon.
<li>Smash the barrel on the right.
<li>Go to the area with the stones that drop from the ceiling and smash this barrel.
<li>Go back to the area with the Nitara weapon.
<li>Smash the left barrel.
<li>Go back down the ramp.
<li>Smash the left barrel using the O button on PS2, or the B on Xbox.
<li>Press and hold the O button on PS2 or the B on Xbox to smash the ground. (You should see green sparks if you did everything correcly.)
<li>Press R2 on the PS2 or BLACK on Xbox to enter survival mode.
</ol>Here is a video demonstration on how to perform this task. If you have trouble playing the video below <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWRu6bX8I0E">click here</a>.

Just as it says, you fight until you die and it's game over. You only get one chance at it.

To Drew:
Very good! I like it. Got to do it when I get a chance.

Do you just play the game from start to finish with only one life? Sounds a little pointless.

It took me 15 mins to dl this video (suck ass dialup right now), and it ended without even going into the survival mode to see what it is. :x

Well I just tried it on the Xbox version and it worked no prob. Seems pretty cool but hard as hell.

There are nine levels all up.

Did you make it to the Shokan team of Kintaro and Goro?

That is level 8!

Level nine you fight all the ninjas, Subby, Reppy, Ermac and Scorpion. I bet that's a tough battle?
 
Drew said:
14. Go back down the ramp.
You do NOT go down the ramp, the last barral is on the upper level.

You get as many chances as you want, some of you thought that you get one and that is pointless. It's called 'SURVIVAL MODE'. Anyways it's kind of ironic that it's called survival mode and you can die and still continue at the level where you left off.

I got to level 8 where my game messed up. Kintaro grabbed goro (to do the grab+puch move) I'm sure this is a glitch, cuz it crashed there.
 
Strange how no one found this till now....guess we were just too damn worn out from looking for SU's in MKD. Oh well, I'm sure we'll have it together for MKA. :)
 
I finally beat level 9. Wow is it hard. There are so many unblockable team combos...

Another note: you do NOT have to hold O or B to get the sparks to come out. You can just tap it.
 
Special Forces came on and said to me that apparently it freezes on the 3rd level for most, if not all of the XBOX versions.
 
It freezes on ALL versions on any level. The first time I tried it, it froze on level 8 because kintaro picked up goro. The game isn't wan't made for you to fight multiple bosses. This was a well hidden secret which obviusly isn't going to have most testing. Be patient.

BTW level 3 is pretty much the easiest and quickest, if not level 4 is. No one should be having problems as it's probably done the quickest leaving the least oppurtunity for a crash. Of course there are other things to consider..
