Scorpio avenged his family by slaying Sub - Zero in the original and current timeline of theMortal Kombatgames , but this was not the oddment of Sub - Zero in either case .

One Easter ball in the 2021Mortal Kombatmovie suggests another way that Sub - Zero might be resurrected if the film producer decided to go in a different way from the game inaMortal Kombatsequel . When Cole Young , Sonya Blade , and Kano first arrived at the Temple of Raiden and were being shown around by Liu Kang , Kano attempted to slip an intricate medallion . fan of the secret plan recognized this as the Amulet of Shinnok ; an artifact of great power that increases the rude talents of its wearer and grant them extra abilities , including upraise the all in and restoring life to the undead .
Another possibility lies withRaidenand the older Gods . While the Elder Gods are technically prohibited from intervene in the lives of mortals outside of defending the Realms and enforcing the rules ofMortal Kombat , Raiden ’s actions in the movie showed that they are not above exploiting loopholes so long as the majuscule spirit of the laws is being upheld . To that end , Raiden potentially has the baron to resurrect Bi - Han and provide him a chance at redemption , arguing that Earthrealm need all the help it can get . Conversely , one of the darker older Gods could resurrect Sub - Zero , fence that Raiden ’s aiding in Scorpio the Scorpion ’s resurrection required another wraith to maintain the remainder .
