Mortal Kombat: Deception is the sixth entry in Midway Games' long-running Mortal Kombat series, released in 2004 for PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Nintendo GameCube. Built on the engine introduced in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, the game carries forward familiar modes such as Arcade, Versus, and Practice, while expanding the package with three notable additions: Konquest, an adventure mode, along with Chess Kombat and Puzzle Kombat as distinct mini-game experiences. The Krypt returns as a repository of unlockable content. PlayStation 2 and Xbox owners gain access to online competitive play, whereas the GameCube version foregoes that feature but compensates with Goro and Shao Kahn as platform-exclusive playable characters. The combination of traditional one-on-one fighting with puzzle and strategy-oriented modes gives Deception a broader scope than a standard entry in the franchise.
As the deadly alliance of Quan Chi and Shang Tsung emerge victorious against Raiden's warriors, a new evil, the Dragon King and former emperor of Outworld Onaga, appears to seek the six artifacts (the Kamidogu) that grant him supreme power over all realms. The main protagonist is Shujinko, a warrior with the power to copy other fighter's abilities who was deceived into ressurecting Onaga prior to the main story. To accomplish this task, Shunjinko traverses all the realms, from his native Earth Realm to the hellish Netherealm, while tutored by the grand masters of Mortal Kombat. However, once Shujinko accomplishes his task, he discovers that he has been a pawn in a plot to restore the evil Dragon King, Onaga, from the dead. With Onaga restored to full strength, the champions of Mortal Kombat must stop him from altering the very fabric of existence.
