Fun Fact: There actually was a 44th Infantry Division that did fight in Northern France during WWII.
It's cool they did their research and got it right
That's not the Purple Hearts Division, right?
That’s actually NOT true the 44th never saw battle they were performers for our Boys fighting over seas. Some where rent boys
@@Logicalization think you got your units mixed up. The 44th Infantry Division was a National Guard unit that had members from Delaware, New York, and New Jersey. They first entered combat in October, 1944, to replace the 79th Infantry Division. They were a part of the 7th Army’s push into the Vosges Mountains. Throughout the war, the unit suffered over 5,000 casualties, 1,000 of which were KIA.
@@thomasboland540 think you got your units mixed up. Google doesn’t show many results for a “Purple Heart Division.” There is, however, the “Purple Heart Regiment,” which is in reference to the 442nd Regimental Combat Team. This was a unit of Japanese-Americans segregated from the regular army and sent in a year prior to the 44th Infantry Division.
I thought for sure Col. Cage would die, was pleasantly surprised he survived
I actually predicted the other guy and was surprised that my prediction came true.
Same.
Just kind of disappointed we didn't see him interact with Actor Cage at all
Well he was soldier after all
@@soraxstacy1477 I thought he's going to die in Havik's maze though
Imagine if Sonya saw this Johnny. She’d probably want to marry him on the spot.
I Imagine that timeline’s Sonya is the action star.
@subjectdelta4758 a complete swap lol id actually would love to see that.
@subjectdeli would kill to see that xD ta4758
@@subjectdelta4758 or the black dragon like the kano sonya
@@subjectdelta4758Or Jonathan's drill instructor, or even his CO.
He may not be the most powerful/skilled fighter/champion, and his personality is rough, but the last 3 games (including this one) have proven how much of a great leader Johnny is.
Johnny in the first/original timeline also lead the forces of light during Armageddon
"He may not be the most powerful" I mean, Bro's still top tier for handing Shinnok's ass to the ground tbh
I think going through WW2 makes you a little tough for a fighter
Lt. Col. Cage is definitely Jonathan Carlton's great grandfather
Probably fujin knows this Johnny, too😂
He’s a different earth version of Johnny Cage, basically his doppelgänger.
We definitely getting a Jonathan Cage Soldier outfit down the road
You unlock it playing the story.
@@angelokeaton6604 oh ok didn't know that and haven't played the story mode 😅
@@ALgamer47i mean it seems kinda obvious considering they have a fully playable model made lol
@@alexramos7708 Still haven't had a chance to play it yet lol 😅 I thought the outfit was in the story mode only
WW2 Johnny Cage
Lol
Colonel Cage: The First Avenger
@@Menaceblue3 lmao
@@Menaceblue3Yeah I got the same vibes too.
D-day Johnny cage
Man, I still can't get use to Emperor Rain. I know he's a good guy but I think it's how he called Johnny Cage using the title.
Yeah, I like Emperor Rain, it's so sad he couldn't make it
That was a gut punch tbh
emperor rain was such a good character, probably the best iteration of rain ever but they had to kill him off so quickly
@@qetaciled the only competent Rain besides MKX (for tricking Mileena)
Considering his rank of LT Col. This Johnny was likely leading a Battalion of anywhere between 300-1000 troops. Cements how he would get far as a soldier and commander if he choose this route.
Sonya blade would fell in love with this version of lieutenant Colonel Cage .
G.I. Johnny Cage is my new favorite iteration of the cage.
Honestly, I would be sorta interested to see a sequel where all the characters are not from the same timeline. Imagine a large tournament between several realms is made, each selecting only one champion. So we could have like Colonel Cage, Order Realm Havik, Earthrealm Shao, etc.
So..like tournament of power from dbz
@@lazypoint972 Something like that. Would also be a decent excuse to give them different backgrounds, and not necessarily follow main timeline.
@@datemasamune2904well regardless fam boys are gonna hate it no matter how good the actual gameplay is so might as well
2:40 Johnathan Cage... Zaterrans don't wear pants, so you could definitely see they don't have balls.
He was hoping it would still be a sensitive region for Reptile.
I love how Khaos Reptile just stands there, while Johnny utters his dramatic "Oh shit" speech, just to let him know how much he fucked up.
"no di, no balls and probably no buttholes since this guy feed on radiation"
I like to think his shoulder pad is a reference to captain America
I do too.
Honestly one time when I saw the 1943 trailer and saw the clash between Cap and Black Panther i immediately thought of Mortal Kombat 1 because of how they do it. I was honestly thinking of doing intros for Cap.
Looks like something Watchmen's Comedian would wear.
This game is a marvel reference
If a random american Soldier from COD joins a Mortal Kombat game.
I mean, Stryker technically counts.
Ramirez collab would go hard
I’m glad at least Emperor Rain isn’t our Rain, but I wanted him to survive!
I enjoy this Jonathan way better than the Johnny in Liu’s timeline.
Yeah. He's kind of annoying
@@joshuaChetty-r9g very annoying.
I would love to see a post WW2 style Mortal Kombat
@@Shinigami88X1 that would be interesting.
@@Shinigami88X1If we consider that the 10th tournament was in the year of the release of the very first game (1992), this means that the 9th was exactly 50 years ago in 1942. This could really justify all these time travels for me.
Are we gonna ignore the fact that alternate timelines are not the same as parallel universe cus that's what I get the vibe from this Johnny cage
All we need now is the older military cage from the previous Mortal combat and then they all meet each other
He was the plasant surprise of this DLC! I thought he would appear for a second and die, but He sticked around and not only he was relevant to the plot, but also made it to the end alive and Kickin!
Now we need to see him married to General Sonya 😅😅😅
oh yes
Then they have Cassie and Cassie gave birth to Johnny 😂
Count me in!
In his timeline, the Sonya Blade would be Lieutenant Major of the Soviet Union fighting alongside Lieutenant Colonel Johnathon Cage in Germany.
No fucking way it ever happens to this guy. In the Western armies, women were not allowed to attain high ranking positions in the military (or simply to be soldiers, for that matter) up until 1970s.
Man this makes me Miss Special forces military Johnny Cage from MkX to Mk11 including Sonya and Jax even The Kombat kids, I still don’t understand why Liu Kang in his Timeline decided to make Johnny not be married to Sonya and how they cut the Special forces from Mk1 Story. Such a Shame Ww2 Johnny cage didn’t had a chapter here in this DLC Story and he didn’t even do that much here
SF will be superceded by the O.I.A. (Outworld Investigation Agency) as teased for this timeline.
Lt. Col. Cage from a different timeline.
This Cage might be from prime Earth.
I really wonder who were the Keepers of Time in Emperor Rain's and Lt. Col. Cage's respective timelines.
Not havik?
@@ridhoardipratama7978 Nope...
spoilers for the DLC story:
Havik merged the timelines of various keepers of time to his own and infected them with the Chaos that was innate to Titan Havik. It could even be possible that Emperor Rain is from a different timeline to Lt. Col. Cage.
[We do know that Emperor Rain, Empress Tanya, Emperor Reiko, and Empress Lei Mei are from the same timeline.]
@@bukalayzx probably just Kronika then
@@galacticgelatin.5990 naaah its not Kronika... maybe its the timeline were Jacqui was erased from existence? because she undid the things that happened to her father?
@@bukalayzxWhy wouldnt it be Kronika?
The name, rank and serial number is a way to avoid breaking during interrogation
That’s sweet, Johnny and Rain hugged
Female Sektor looks and sounds more like Li Mei while Female Cyrax is the same but it's Tanya.
3:49
Jonathan Cage:This mashed up worlds thing has my Brain Fubar.😏
Cyrax:FUBA??🫤
dang, cutscene was so good until not cyrax and not sektor started talking
classic antagonist appearing from the side when he was obviously way behind
Please Tell me it's going to be an Actual Character or a Skin for Johnny Cage Cause I wouldn't mind being a Skin for Johnny Cage
Yes after you beat story mode part 2 you unlock it
Someone hasn't played story mode
never thought i'd be okay with Johnny Cage x Sektor ship
This jonathan cage is from different timeline, might be titan? Or not? We don't know
Jonathan is from the Nazi universe, funny how he joined Special Forces in MK X and 11.
He's from the WW2, possibly our current Johnny's great grandfather
@D-Ender2 no😂 it's just a different version of him
love Captain America-esque vibes
One of the only good “variants” to be seen from these alternative times.
This is fuckin awesome.
i love how mk could have just make different story every time and its still a banger
that will be a skin in the store any second now
This whole time, I seriously thought this was our Johnny playing a soldier.
Shouldn't Jonathan's surname actually be Carlton. Since Johnny's real name is John Carlton [it was even referenced in the last game] and Johnny Cage is just a stage name?
This might be the vice versa. "Cage" is his surname for real
@@spidergoblin.Good point. This is an alternate johnny after all.
It could be also his nick name.
Like maybe he was called cage due to his Tactics.
@@Rage_Templar that could also be right. Good point
Johnny Cage being a solder like Sonya but kept his flirty and cocky personality. Nice
I never expected a Cage, Rain and Tanya ensemble.
The helmet Cage is wearing is cursed
And his helmet didn't fall off his head
It's somewhat like seeing the Johnny Cage we usually know is starring in some kind of sci-fi movie 🎬 🎞 🎥 🎦 📽 set in the 50s, nice.
2:40 of course Johnny’s Grandpa and his grandson have the same energy by this.
I imagine too much an Alternative Reality where the MK1 Characters live in the 30s-40s and even 50s and where some take part in the World War II. Like a sort of Golden Age of Comics/Justice League New Frontiers and where Jonathan Cage is one of the Heroes.
Another johnny variant is wild!
Huh, Johnny Cage as an actual WW2 soldier, and not just an actor.
Cool.
Where you’re Garand At Colonel
Scorpion be like bro Johnny why do you have the outfit on? Are you a SWAT team or nah
I was half expecting captain America for one insane second
I mean he can do this all day.
He looks like some kind of guy to have a job to do
Am I the only one who thinks the new Cage, Tanya and Rain were the best thing about Khaos Reigns?
where is Bros M1 Garand
is this a different timeline or something? is this a different Havik? i don't follow the story much
Alright to sum it up, There's multiple timelines, each being guarded and created by a Titan. Liu Kang ascended to the role and it's his that is the "main" one we follow.
This is a version of Havik that fulfils the same role. So yes, different timeline, different versions of the Kharacters.
@@MysticEle thanks
It's pretty much this version of havik beat kronika and became the keeper of time titan of his timeline. Similar to all the other characters who beat kronika in their different timelines.
Lt Col cage reminds me of mkx Johnny Cage.
Surprised they added B.J. Blazkowicz to MK1.
Best part of the DLC
gets completely wasted.
Especially we never seen Him and MK1JC talk to each other.
@@user-4210Honestly I was hoping they had an interaction between each other.
No Hotaru?
It was a cool idea, but they did virtually NOTHIGN with him, if you took him out entirely nothing would change.
I would be amazed if the outfit can be used or to get in the game
What's a FUBAR?
It stands for F*****d Up Beyond All Recognition.
@@Wright805 Cyrax makes me laugh so much because she doesn't know what it means. Too bad we can see her reaction to the FUBAR's real meaning.
That skin is sick …Marvel must have gave netherrealm the idea😂😂😂
sektor and cyrax doesn't look like cyborgs
because they aren't
@@hyperraidsaerofrights5649 in this universe they made it a mix of human and cyborgs which I think is really cool casue it's a mix of original and the mk9 version
In this timeline, they're basically Iron Man
I thought this was Vietnam Johnny cage
So is the story of this game them jumping timelines into different scenarios or something?
He fought hitler
Some fictional characters like Steve rogers, tmnt and even superman fought hitler in various comics. Even arnold's grandpa well that was just his joke in hey arnold. Every character can beat hitler in various propaganda media or controversial media or many censorship media in pop culture and comics and games and tv series/movies
It could also be a coverage term for the German Army during that time as well.
They put iron heart in MK1!
How did they get the interrogation scene right, but the salute was atrocious?
I thought this was a mod or something when I saw the title. No it’s actually a thing.
I'm still waiting for General Sonya Blade.
how is his helmet still on his face with the chin straps undone all that time he is thrown around? :D
what the fuck's with these "Johnny Cage" randomizers crowding the roster in Mortal Kombat?
He would've been Lt Johnathan Carlton
Is he related to John Crate?
Why’s his helmet backwards?? Lol
how do I unlock this skin, I don't even have mk1 but this is calling my name
wait, so this is a different timeline then huh?, i dont know why people are mad so much
Dude did jack shit throughout the entire storyline lol
i think That's Johnny Cage Grandfather WW2 timeline😂
Adler????
JOHNNY CAGE GOT DRAFTED (REAL)
Isn't his last name Carlton? Then he should actually be called Lieutenant Colonel Jonath Carlton
Who the hell made Cage a Lt. Col?
Havik
Jonathan who?!
Jonathan cage
Well, so he's gonna become a skin in some times ?
Guess trying to exploit outworld didnt go to well
team fortress 2 soldier
The only good thing in the entire DLC, that story was open butt on a copy machine bad, but WWII Johnny Cage, he was legit.
Where m1911 pistol
wtf is going on in MK anymore.
So Johnny is reversed Sonya
I thought the soldier would be badass and not so much of a pushover.
And these 3 turned to jobbers, again
Only in ChaosRealm.
@@ronniefaulconjr5711 I know, but still
A not-so-good reminder of how the script back then treated them.
Sorry, just another minor character with less than 10 minutes of screentime. _Move along._
At least they supposed to give us a LT.C Cage meet Johnny Cage moment.
Honestly, these dialogues are written by a toddler.
Kinda cringe
Is he pro-segregation? or does he come from a timeline that the US had no segregation or at least not officially supported?
He’s pretty chill towards Cyrax so he’s probably against it. He’s just a ww2 soldier, not a whole lot was said about his universe
My guess is this Johnny here is against it
Segregation was still a thing during WW2, a lot of places enforced it, although a lot of people were indifferent, some supported it, others didn't.
It was still an issue, but nothing really happened until the 60s during the Civil Rights Movement.
@@floodrunner_2042 fair, usually it was the MP that enforced segregation tbf
@@ARC9652 yup, though it was especially enforced in the military, that's why I'm asking
He’s probably not going to care about it since he was literally picked up and dropped into the Khaos timeline and is helping to fight Titan Havik and suddenly he gets his ass saved by Asians and an African, yeah, he’s not gonna care.
3:52 More like Kung FUBAR
