Damn, so Ermac's able to use the abilities of the souls within himself? If so that's kind of OP in a lore perspective.
They've always been OP
Only to never be shown on screen 😭
He let out Sindel's soul for her scream. That's something.
Well he was considered a sub boss like goro motaro and tshang shung in the original timeline
He’s becoming a full anime MC at this point
It looks like Ermac has stuff too figure out for himself on what he wants.
Good thing is that despite all that and due to Ermac consisting of the souls in the living forest, Ermac won't be evil.
Yea imagine all the souls telling him what to do 😵
Dont We have to refer to ermac as they/them since they are many not one 🤔🤔
@@darksamm1398 the host is king jarad
@@Cisco2624it currently is king Jerrod but in the ending, it looks clear other souls took over and decided they wanted to free quan chi. I doubt Jerrod or sindel would’ve wanted that. Also, sindel for a moment appeared outside the body and used her scream so yeah, sindel is a host too
Hopefully it’s like the first timeline where he turns good and becomes a mentor to kenshi
I really hope to make your words mine.
At the end of the main story it seems like he’s gone on to act as a supervisor to Mileena, because the main soul in him is her dad. If I’m remembering correctly. It’s been a while since I played the story
Did you know that Ermac turned good in the original timeline? That's in MK Deception - Armageddon, so that could not be his first time.
@@zel3079 the story where Kenshi is trained by Ermac is the original timeline. I think you misunderstood OP
@@ShadowknightEX This looks like it takes place after every other tower ending and the main story where Jerrod is in control of Ermac. So it's up in the air where Ermac goes from here.
Sindel's scream is just too iconic and recognizable 💯
Shame Jerrod lost control over Ermac,on the plus side Ermac still hasnt fully decided which side they are on yet,meaning they could still remain on the path of light.
I do think that they'll go toward the good one
because ermac is created from the living forest's souls, which according to baraka: are good souls
@@huskymafia6020 That's a good point. Man I can only imagine what it must be like having more than a thousand souls, all arguing with each other over what each of them wants to do.
Ermac is a Male
@@MatoKuroi1111 Correction Ermac is the collection of over a thousand souls, and has oftentimes refered to themselves simply as **We** and never as He.
Now if we were referring to classic Ermac alone then you would be correct as there he was referred to as a male.
@@Burning-Twilight that's what I failed to say the OG timeline Ermac
If anyone thinks Ermac sounds like Shao it’s not the same VA it’s just the souls inside Ermac
That are different
He sounds like a hybrid of Sub Zero and General Shao for me
So, in other words, this ending is a big middle finger to the possibility of King Jarrod giving us some detail as to what happened the night he was killed.
It’s possible he reveals what happened in the story expansion. Maybe even a flashback.
@@Andre12359 I just hope NetherRealm doesn't forget that plot tread.
New timeline and L Kang lets his daddy-in-law die offscreen AGAIN.😂
Could also be explained on the match dialogues
Some match dialogues (not with Ermac) imply this happens a lot, and they usually just beat him up until Jerrod regains control.
“But after healing us, he betrayed us!”
🖐️ 😲 🤚
Quan Chi betraying someone? Who could have predicted that!
@@docrofreborn7497 Shang Tsung is probably laughing in his corner because Quan Chi managed to fumble something so easy
I like how this Ermac is more good than evil, which makes sense since all of the souls within him are good as Baraka confirmed in the MK 1 story. I personally prefer the good/redeemed Ermac over evil, blindless loyalty to Outworld Ermac. 1st Timeline Ermac and Liu's timeline Ermac FTW! I also love how ever since Deception Ermac always refers to himself as "We". Such an interesting and unique character. He's easily always been my favorite ninja.
I'm guessing & hoping for a neutral autonomous collective. Ha can & likely will be helpful if interests align but otherwise won't care much. He won't go out of his way to screw you over but you've got to give him reason to follow along.
@gaelofariandel6747 In his gameplay trailer today, Reptile says to him in his clash "You've changed since we've met"
Ermac's responce"We believe in the better"
So I'd say he's more good than bad or neutral honestly but under his own terms. He also talks sh*t to Shao, clearly not a fan of him so I definitely don't see Ermac being bad this time at all. I think he would help the good guys if it serves the greater good, Baraka confirmed the living forest in this timeline are full of good souls not evil, they may be conflicted but definitely not evil so there's also that.
by first timeline you mean midway timeline or netherealm timeline?
@@Honcat_ru The first timeline is Midway's timeline, the second timeline onward was NRS though it was technically a soft reboot as it didn't go all the way back to the very, very beginning of everything just to the first MK tournament. Everything that happened prior to that was the same as the first timeline. But yeah this was definitely it's own thing, the Elder Gods were far weaker in this timeline in Onslaught, Shinnok and Raiden never worked together and that stuff with Scorpion and Drahmin's mask was never a thing.
I like him being a moral grey. Neither good or bad.
Lesson of the story: everybody just shut the fkk up & learn to get along.
I was expecting Jerrod to speak during this ending
Hopefully Ermacs potential is fully explored... He should be kinda overpowered lore wise.
Hope He gets his MK2, UMK3. Deception, Union Of Light & Order Of Darkness skins ofc
or the krypt skin from mk 11
@@Dylannuyten yea that one
He needs his MK9 alt. His best skin.
@@IGoByGhostfacts
the va for ermac is the same guy from mk x
Ermac is so damn interesting, especially now.
damn, was legit hoping for Goodboy ermac, feels bad.
We have enough good Guy ... Like the entire roster is Friendly boring already
@@blackcatbone5697 Don't get me wrong, I don't mind villians, I just wanted to see some of the folks who generally get mega-shafted (and die/tend to be lackies for mega-boss-evil guy) have a bit of a turn about. Like Baraka and Mileena!
Considering Ermac consists of the souls of the living forest then considering that according to Baraka, none of the souls there are evil souls, its safe to say that Ermac is still a good guy. Its just that all the remaining souls need to figure out what they want and figure out how to coexist peacefully.
@@blackcatbone5697bro, nobody wants to see the same story over and over…. With the same bad guys, I’m glad they switched it up…. Like peoples favorite characters do the same thing over and over and die bc the plot made them bad and just some following azz ppl like….. no mane, I want to see something new
Well mk13 and mk14 might be the end of the new era arc. Ermac was a good guy in previous timelines
Sherlock: Ermac Is a Body of Multiple Souls at Once.
yeah no shit
wow well done heres a medal lmao
I thought he was a collective of sperm with how white and sticky this version of him looks.
Congratulations, you’re able to understand stories.
No shit
It's kina sad that sindel will not be in the future games
Thank god
@@Raggadee_Manwhy
That good
c'mon don't y'all know already that if a character dies in the story mode it doesn't disqualify them for the next game?? just look at baraka he died in mkx and came back for mk11, mileena died in mkx and came back in mk11, sindel and shao both died in mk11 and came back for mk1, even if it's a factor of the lore where the time line resets/collides it still doesn't make sense for them to permanently remove them from the games, especially when sindel's one of the more popular ones within the community, plus in the og time line she is brought back to life by kitana and jade so maybe that could happen again.
She will be, with this multiverse thing, anything is possible.
1:04 this makes a sick wallpaper
Ermac is the planet.
The souls are the people living in it.
I hope betrayal by Quan Chi means Ermac aligns with good
A solo ermac game where you satisfy the souls within a wills would be fire
The voice of Ermac sounds like Geras with effects and reverb.
Seeing Sindel's scream in this ending would leave me less than surprised if it ends up as a move in Ermac's moveset in the next game
Yeah, this is pretty accurate to NRS' incoherent writing style tbh. They establish actually interesting stories like King Jerrod being the iconic red ninja of souls and Raiden becoming a darker version of himself, only to immediately shoot the ideas in the head before taking repeated dumps on them. If you hate these interesting ideas so much, why even include them at all?
I Feel So Sad About Jerrod When Ermac's Collection of Souls Re-Establishes Its control Then He retreats To Outworld's Shadow Where He's No Longer Quan Chi's Slave nor Bound to Royal Family!
So Ermac goes by his own choice like MKX and he can use powers from the souls he had that's new and cool
Ermac 1: You serve the Kahn!
Ermac 2: I have found my own path, Ermac.
Ermac 1: Then we must destroy you!
Remember when endings were one or two panels with written text? No voice over or animation involved. I love seeing how far we have come.
Hopefully Ermac can use new abilities.
I want Sindel back so bad. Love seeing her as good guy again
Hope they do some sentry stuff with ermac this time around because jerrod’s soul is still part of ermac.
There’s a chance this ending plus the Sindel one could be both canon Ermac stays as we the collective but eventually Jared and Sindel eventually take control or guide the souls to the path of light but until then we get anti hero Ermac who hasn’t really decided what to do with himself
MK1’s wild card like MK3U’s Scorpion
Behold the pinnacle of needing Self Care
So basically they desperately need to get their shit together 💀💀💀
With all endings being connected and cannon taking place after the story it will be interesting to see where the story goes with Ermac.
Gotta be crazy.. Like constantly voting what to do...
l like ermac
a place holder ending. nothing really changed.
Mk4 endings: Quan chi betrayed me and won.
Mk1 endings: Quan Chi betrayed me, and I curb stomped him.
I always knew Ermac needed Quan Chi's help.
Ermac was an April Fool's day idea for a character to be added in MK 3, so basically, he's origin haz yet to be said. So that ending doesn't help me with what he will do in the future.
#GORO
Ermac: so the answer is yes mileena I am your father and your mother
I was hoping Jerrod would stay as Ermac. He's always been an importantly background character
Lowkey sounds like Venom
WE.....ARE.....ERMAC
All of his soul would die? Im sorry but how tf should a soul be even capable of dying in the first place? There a literally already dead
Pawn no more! 🤘
Much better idea to make Ermac into King Jerrod
I hope jerrod becomes playaable again
Just imagine if Bi-Han died and became a part of Ermac 💀
Next arch, Ermac civil war
I feel most of Ermac vs Kitana or Mileena dialogues will be about Jerrod demanding Ermac allow him to he dominate again or to let them speak to Sindel, and to Quan Chi about Ermac wanting revenge or demanding to be released
Looking at this ending, this is what they should’ve expanded on for Ermac in MKX. Not only that, it seems the only reason Ermac was evil in this timeline’s story so far was because of Quan Chi. But now the magic is uncontrolled, and maybe those souls are fighting for supremacy but now they simply have to work together to keep surviving.
Ermac becomes the strongest Stand User in existence.
WHAT? Quan Chi betrayed you? I'm doing you a curtesy by not laughing in your face.
I just realized a spin off Mortal Kombat game set inside of Ermac is feasible.
I Wish T-1000 Conan The Barbarian And Ghostface Alongside With Jade Kung Jin Cassie Cage Cyrax And Noob Saibot Was Added To Kombat Pack 2 In Mortal Kombat 1 After Kombat Pack 1 Was Finished.
God I hope Conan isn’t one of the next guest characters we literally just had terminator t-800 in mk11 we don’t need another arnie character
@@Superguy-w4s Who Care Because I Don't Like Doomguy To Be Added In Mortal Kombat Because I Don't Want To Get Him Being Brutal By Every Kombatants But Anyways The Comic Conan Is My Choose To Be Added In Kombat Pack 2 Soon.
@@rommebernardcutamora ok the comic version of Conan would be cool though but the movie version no
and doom slayer and micheal myers in mk1
@@Dylannuyten Michael Myers Was Added To My Kombat Pack 3 List Alongside With Lilith (Diablo 4) Michonne Grimes Lara Croft Chainsaw Man And Terakomari Gandesblood But Doomslayer No.
Well, RIP Jerrod again, I guess.
Kenshi can save him by absorbing Ermac's evil souls.
I want to see Ermac absorb his opponent's soul and then use his special moves.
So … why not go find the dragon kings army and spread the souls to the bodies? Come on ermac, ik theres atleast a few souls in their with a solution.
Ermac is next Tuesday
Any chances that Ermac will have a mirror match dialogue with Sindel talking to Jerrod?
For a second there, his dialogue sounded like Gollum with balls.
Sindel for the save 🗣️
Was that sindels banshee from mk11
Yes, Ermac absorbed her soul when she died in the storyline
I was hoping that King Jerrod's soul would be the one who'd be in permanent control of Ermac's body. To me it makes better sense for the overall storyline of MK1. The royal family could continue to rule Outworld forever in peace because Ermac could simply absord their souls when they die. Generations after generations he could continue to be the family advisor for...
They made him sound like venom and he keeps saying we lol
Damn, I kinda liked Jerrod being the leading personality…
It must suck being ermac. You have to stay like that if you want to exist and even then he tells mileena they can't stay like that forever
Ermac isn't even released yet? Where is it?
In your wife’s bedroom, give him a while
@@HAMZA-OLYMPUSmore in your face
Probably in the game’s files or something idk
It's not really surprising that Shang Tsung tried to betray Ermac.
That was Quan Chi who betrayed him, not Shang Tsung
So unlike previous ermac
Where souls are just green smoke powering a rotting corpse
Here he has personalities and abilities of the souls.
Jared is in charge
Quan Chi betraying others. Imagine that. XD
OKAY, I've predicted the entire mk1 plot since the first trailer so listen close, in the next game, everything will go in a more traditional style, mileenas tarkat will take over, making her the crazy girl we all love, shao will rebel, and ermac will be taken over and be multiple ppl, shang will become a proper sorcerer and host a proper fatal tournament, there may be Johnny Sonya romance, but i have no clue who the main boss Will be since titan havik is probably the dlc boss
WE ARE MANY!
Cool video.
¿Ni siquiera salió Ermac y ya filtraron el ending?.
1:10 well that gotha be Yoda's soul
When will their gameplay trailer be revealed?
In the next week, as they said on X.
Will Ermac reference the victims of the train scene from Invincible when he talks to Omni-Man?
I saw after 5 month.
If Ermac was no longer govern by Jerrod's soul, then why in Subzero Invasion ending, he help Fire God Liu Kang use his telekinesis ability doing fatality destroying the body of Arctic Subzero? I still believe even he's no longer govern by Jerrod, he choose to join the good side team lead by Liu Kang.
Here's the thing, Ermac in this timeline is composed of all of the souls from the living forest. None of the souls there were souls of anyone evil. Even with Jerrod no longer in control, they were still on the side of light. Can't join a team that you were already on to begin with.
Invasion is not canon
Imagine if it was like alein X where everyone has to agree to do something before they can do it 💀
What does self-determination mean for a being that's thousands of "selves"?
He should have had his red mask he would have looked better don’t know wat the writers were thinking
FFS I just want Takeda, for TWO Games Now!
Let’s hope he actually gets released Before they stop supporting the game.
When he was introduced in MKX, I get he played the way Scorpion always should have.
What I want to know is. If Ermac is a collection of souls, who is the soul controlling the souls? Like who is the one giving that intro just now talking on behalf of the whole Ermac collective?
What A Scariest Ending!!!! 😨😨😨😨😨😨
This is mad old, why is people amazed by this?
I guess Ermac's pronounce is 'they/them'
Buh dum tshhh
Yes
Non binary wokemac
The only that has the right to say that.
Not because they're non-binary but because they are literally a lot of people.
@@WeaponXSigma yes that was the joke
We are vermac 😂😂😂😂
Everyone is commenting but no one is asking how they got access to this?
Thankfully Ghost Rider isn't in that universe, because his signature move would be much stronger with him.
I really hoped that they would have kept Jarmac
How did you get the tower ending if the character isn’t out yet ?
#Wow……..
Can somebody explain me Ermac's history? Who he is...how he is linked w Jarrod.
LSS: In the original timeline Ermac was an elusive ninja in which he had only ever appeared at certain times and has almost nothing known about him.
In the NRS timeline (MK9-11) Ermac is a being created by Shao Kahn and is composed of hundreds, thousands, possibly even millions of souls across Outworld and even other realms. In Ermac’s MK9 ending, King Jarrod was revealed to be one of the many souls trapped within Ermac. Jarrod was able to fight for control over Ermac and was successful. He then rules Edenia alongside his wife, Sindel and daughter, Kitana.
Liu Kang’s timeline took a similar approach, however, this time he is created by Quan Chi, instead of Shao. Jerrod once again is one of many souls trapped and after being beaten by his daughter Mileena, he’s able to take control. After her death, Sindel’s soul was able to be rescued by her husband and stored in Ermac’s very being. Her and Jerrod must fight a never ending battle for Ermac’s control as the many other souls also vie for their control over Ermac.
Still long wasn’t it?
@@RedCommunistDragon Actually that is a perfect explanation. Thanks! 👍🏼👍🏼
@@joaosilva3378 No problem!😉
@@RedCommunistDragon Wasn't Jerrod's soul in Ermac in MK Deception as well?
@@WeaponXSigma Possibly. Ermac’s original timeline story is kinda confusing. I’m unsure if it ever says Jerrod was a part of him back then but I can imagine so.
I miss the narrator’s not the characters narrating there ending
Really? I think it’s a better improvement and makes it more interesting allowing the characters to express more and makes each ending have a different voice. Anyways the endings in mk1 suck because instead of what ifs they are all confirmed to be canon
