Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks is an Action-Adventure title driven by both intense single and multi-player action. Similar to the recently released Mortal Kombat: Deception, background interactions (i.e., acid pits, living trees, spiked ceilings, etc.), multiple new fatalities and action-based puzzles will also play an important role in the player's quest for an "outstanding" victory. Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks will feature an impressive line-up of Mortal Kombat characters as well, that make frequent appearances as enemies, in boss battles and during several additional in-game
interactions.
Glitches
Invisible gameplay After Goro dies and Kung lao argues with Kang, wait until Kang is hit and morphs back into Shang Tsung. At the point that Tsung is green from being half-morphed, skip that cutscene and when it returns to normal game-play, your character will be invisible and only his shadow on the ground will be visible.
Secrets
Easy 1000 Exp Points! First obtain the combo ranking of "Toasty". Then immediately press the start button. The words "Toasty 1000" should appear in the middle of the screen and you will be awarded 1000 exp points. The best thing about this trick is that it works every time.
Fight Ermac, Kano, and Mileena! To fight Ermac, you need the Fist of Ruin and Swing Ability. Go to Wu Shi Academy and go to the first area of it. Once you're there, look for the big red bridge. Before this, there is a split path. Take the one going over a chasm of spikes. On the other side is an evil Priest statue. Break it and head into the new area. Once you're there, jump onto the area to the left. Use swing to get to higher ground, then interact with the statue. The doors on the other side of the bridge in this area will open and you will see the Warrior Shrine.
Go to the Warrior Shrine and examine the statue on the left three times to fight...Ermac!
Near the end of the game, right before you fight the final three bosses, talk to Kitana three or four times. Destroy the guards that come into the room, then go through the new door to find...Kano!
In the first area of the Living Forest, use the swing ability on the two big branches that can be found above you as you head for the save structure. Swing over to higher ground, then climb up the ladder. You will be in a new area. Head to the other end of this treetop area to fight...Mileena!
