At this time we are highly unsure of how close this DS version will be to the actual Arcade Version. Ermac, Mileena and Classic Sub-Zero all had to be unlocked in the arcade version, but in a "screenshot" of Ultimate Mortal Kombat these three are already unlocked. Also to note is that Rain makes an appearance in the teaser video... which makes me believe the footage in the teaser is entirely taken from other ports of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. (or maybe Rain is going to be included?)
Story:
"You have been chosen to represent the Earth in Mortal Kombat. Be warned. for although your souls are safe from Shao Kahn's evil: Your lives are not. I can no longer interfere as your Earth is now ruled by the Outworld gods."
--These are the words of Raiden
For centuries Earth has used Mortal Kombat to defend itself against the Outworld's emperor, Shao Kahn. But Kahn grows frustrated by failed attempts at taking Earth through tournament battle. He enacts a plan which began 10,000 years ago.
During this time Shao Kahn had a queen. Her name was Sindel, and her young death was unexpected. Kahn's shadow priests, led by Shang Tsung, make it so Sindel's spirit would someday be reborn: not on the Outworld, but on the Earth Realm itself.
This unholy act gives Shao Kahn the power to step through the dimensional gates and reclaim his queen, thus enabling him to finally seize the Earth Realm.
Upon breaching the portal into Earth, Shao Kahn slowly transforms the planet into a part of the Outworld itself. Kahn strips the Earth of all human life: claiming every soul as his own. But there are souls which Kahn cannot take. These souls belong to the warriors chosen to represent Earth in a new Mortal Kombat. The remaining humans are scattered throughout the planet. Shao Khan sends an army of fierce Outworld warriors to find and eliminate them.
