Upon release, the game received positive reviews for transitioning the series into an adventure game and its co-op mode. Developed with the intent of appealing to Mortal Kombat gamers, Shaolin Monks incorporates elements from the fighting game entries, including Fatalities, combos, and a versus mode.
Shaolin Monks was officially announced in 2004 as part of Midway's plan to release Mortal Kombat games annually. A spin-off centered on Liu Kang had been considered since the early 2000s, but was shelved after negative reception to the previous adventure spin-offs, Mythologies: Sub-Zero (1997) and Special Forces (2000). Players control the eponymous Shaolin monks Liu Kang and Kung Lao in either single player or cooperative play as they protect Earthrealm from the forces of Outworld.
A spin-off of the Mortal Kombat fighting game series, it is a retelling of the events of Mortal Kombat II (1993).
