QWhere does this fit in the Mortal Kombat movie chronology, if anywhere?
AThe show is set after the first movie, as events from it are often referenced. This show came out BEFORE the second movie got a theatrical release. When the second movie came out, it picked up immediately where the first left off, therefore disregarding this animated series completely. That said, there are two continuities for this sake:The first one consists of the first movie and this cartoon.The second one consists of the first movie and the second movie.
QDoes Nightwolf's wolf from this show appear in the games?
ANo, although he DOES use a wolf Animality move in Mortal Kombat 3 and its derivitives.
QWere there any characters featured prominently here that weren't in the games?
AQuite a few. Amongst them are a tribal leader the same species as Baraka, a reptilian-type leader of a group the same species as Reptile (who was fought and killed in the first movie), and an evil female warrior who holds Jax hostage.The character Quan Chi was invented for the cartoon series but was later featured in the games, making him the only long-running MK universe character to debut here.
