Smoke and Rain return as primary fighters in Mortal Kombat 1

The cinematic showcased on the Kombat Kast depicted fan-favorite Smoke as a member of the Lin Kuei alongside Sub-Zero and Scorpion. As revealed by Ed Boon, Sub-Zero and Scorpion are brothers, so Smoke is on their side. 

Smoke emerged with his classic “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire” line made popular in Mortal Kombat 9. The classic character wields two small curved blades while utilizing smoke-based moves and a teleport. You can catch one of Smoke’s fatalities at the end of the trailer.

Conversely, we have Rain, who opposes Liu Kang’s cause in this game. Following his appearance as DLC in Mortal Kombat 11, Rain is back with an arsenal of water-based moves.

Rain possesses a staff that allows him to manipulate water and weather to his opponent’s demise. He can summon lightning as he could in previous Mortal Kombat titles.
