Scorpion is one of the playable Mortal Kombat fighting game series characters and debuted together with the first game in the Arcades back in 1992.

He returned in every new game of the series except the first version of Mortal Kombat 3 and became one of the most important characters of the Mortal Kombat games and might be one of the most popular fighting game characters in general today.

Ed Boon, one of the creators of the Mortal Kombat games is voicing Scorpion since the first game and was also his voice in the Mortal Kombat movie. Scorpion returned in Mortal Kombat X (2015) and is for the first time in the series a human again as part of the story.  Scorpion was one of the two first characters together with Raiden shown in the first trailer of Mortal Kombat XI (2019)

Scorpion might not look like it at first sight, but he is usually an undead character, fighting often for revenge but also as a chosen champion like in Mortal Kombat Deception (2006)
