No último dia 27, o código-fonte de Mortal Kombat II vazou na internet, e isso levou a comunidade a descobrir vários arquivos de animações e sprites que não saíram no jogo final.
O usuário do Twitter, Pegasus Kid, começou a documentar essas descobertas e compartilhá-las com um contexto adicional sobre como os materiais não utilizados provavelmente seriam usados.
Há um sprite de Fatality de Shao Kahn, por exemplo, não utilizado, que é um punho gigante descendo dos céus. Este aparentemente foi encontrado no jogo base, embora não com tantos detalhes.
Alguns dos outros arquivos encontrados são: um combo incompleto para Kung Lao; um tipo de giro para Kitana; uma animação chamada “Short Zap” para Raiden; um Acid Spit no ar para Reptile; e um sprite de Scorpion com pele azul; entre outros. Confira alguns deles abaixo:
#1 – Johnny Cage!
Found a lot of new animations for this guy, including a never seen before "Fatality" and MK3-Styled Kombos! We were theorizing for this "Fatality" animation to be an early version of his MKDA Brain Rip… pic.twitter.com/VgvDtYNyRU

An entirely new animation named "PPunch" in the files, apparently "Power Punch", this could either be an entirely new scrapped special move or a kombo ender. pic.twitter.com/F5Q5uBDBC6

And as a bonus round… Shao Kahn's big hand from a scrapped fatality where he would put his hand in a portal and it would come out of the top of the screen, crushing P2! This one was messed up in the original sprite rips for the game, now not anymore! pic.twitter.com/HA8tf7Avzc

#11 Kitana's Spin found! I think this one was meant for her fatality or possibly a scrapped fan-spin special move? pic.twitter.com/VvipPwPrML

#7 Jax's Air Energy Wave found! This sprite was never really seen outside of MKT in arcade quality, only recreations/resizes of it. pic.twitter.com/rZd8bCBbB8
