In the mysterious city of Zhuzin, Kung Lao and his new friends are guided and watched over by the thunder god Raiden.

Kung Lao created a partnership and friendship between two warriors: Siro, a former bodyguard, and Taja, an ex-thief. Kung Lao now had to train the next generation of warriors, who would give their lives to save Earth. When Kung Lao spared his life, Shao imprisoned Shang in the cobalt mines.

Five hundred years in the past, the monk warrior Kung Lao defeated Shao Kahn's sorcerer, Shang Tsung. To protect Earth, Mortal Kombat was created: a tournament in which the fate of the planet is decided in battles between competitors from Earthrealm and Outworld. Powerful and rich with natural resources, the vicious megalomaniac Shao Kahn wanted Earth as part of his growing collection of conquered realms known as Outworld. Many centuries ago, Earth was an enchanting and desirable planet. It was one of the first live action shows based on a video game to air on United States television, preceded only by the live action segments of The Super Mario Bros. The series serves as a prequel to the games, following the original Kung Lao ( Paolo Montalban) as he protects Earthrealm with the help of bodyguard Siro ( Daniel Bernhardt) and former thief Taja ( Kristanna Loken). Based on the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise, it aired in syndication for one season from 1998 to 1999. Mortal Kombat: Conquest is an American martial arts television series developed by Juan Carlos Coto. Kevin Michael Richardson (Opening titles only)
