Long ago, Shao Kahn rose to power in the Outworld, usurping the realm from Kitana's parents and taking Queen Sindel for his bride. Then she died. Now, centuries later, Sindel is reborn.

As in the second tournament, the final opponent is the ever scheming, but powerful Shao Kahn. Shao Kahn is tired of having the tournament slip through his fingers. So this time he's returns with a new powerful arsenal of attacks. Shadow Rising Uppercut, Shadow Shoulder Rush, Super Mallet, and Green Nova Blast. Shao Kahn is very well rounded and should be approached with much caution.

The most basic strategy for defeating this huge opponent is to duck and wait till he attacks with a Shadow Rising Uppercut or a Shadow Shoulder Rush. Then quickly counter with an uppercut. Then follow it up with your character's most devastating combo. Once finished, repeat the process until you hopefully defeat Shao Kahn. Another technique is to use your character's projectile attacks repeatedly. This tactic is not as effective as the first. When being approached by Kahn, keep him away by sweeping him. Usually Shao Kahn will perform his Shadow Shoulder Rush and the sweep will knock him out of it. The most effective tactic to use against Kahn is to use a character who has a combo that will knock him into the air. Then run up to him and begin to perform the same combo. Repeat until you have defeated Shao Kahn and become the Supreme Mortal Kombat Warrior.
