The Evolution of Mortal Kombat's Reptile: From Whipping Boy to Fan Favorite

Baraka and Reptile, traditionally portrayed as "whipping boys" in the Mortal Kombat series, may finally have a chance to shine in their own chapters in the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1 game. The recent trailer suggests that they may be among the "good guys" this time, potentially defeating other fighters in the story. This marks a departure from their previous roles as henchmen and low-tier combatants. Fans will have to wait until September 14, 2023, to see if Baraka and Reptile's fortunes change in the game.
