* Mileena's interactions reveal Tanya is confirmed to have been KilledOffScreen in the interim between ''X'' and ''11''. Mileena is absolutely furious about this, considering how close they were, and she's out for more blood than usual in quite a few interactions. In fact, it's possible the reason Mileena's bloodthirstier than ever in ''11'' is because she's just that pissed off about it.

Not all of the intros in [=MK11=] are awesome, [[Funny/MortalKombat11PreMatchIntros funny]], or both. As it turns out, there are somber ones in the bunch.

WARNING: Spoilers are unmarked.
!!
* Cassie partially, if not entirely, blames Raiden for causing the loss of her mother, and isn't ready to forgive him yet.
--->'''Cassie''': My trust in you cost me Mom.\\
'''Raiden''': [[TheAtoner How can I ever make amends?]]\\
'''Cassie''': ''([[TranquilFury practically growling]])'' [[PreAssKickingOneLiner I’ve got a few bad ideas]].

*Baraka and Jade talk about what happened to their future selves.
-->'''Jade:''' In the future you're dead, I'm a Revenant.\\
'''Baraka:''' I prefer ''my'' fate [[FateWorseThanDeath to yours.]]\\
'''Jade:''' I must agree, Baraka.

*[[BigGood Raiden]] and [[BigBad Shao Kahn]] has a darker intro, which also perfectly showcases the contrast between them:
-->'''Shao Kahn''': [[TheAtoner You]] ''burn'' with guilt, don't you?\\
'''Raiden''': [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone For the pain I have caused others, yes.]]\\
'''Shao Kahn''': [[TheSociopath Compassion is for fools!]]

*[[DeceptiveDisciple Frost]] and Sub-Zero have their own unique exchange, which highlights [[FallenHero just how far Frost has fallen.]] Sub-Zero outright tells Frost he would have given her everything she’d asked for... if only she hadn’t tried to take it by force.
-->'''Frost:''' I was your heir apparent!\\
'''Sub-Zero:''' [[DisappointedInYou If only you’d been more patient, Frost...]]\\
'''Frost:''' [[DramaticallyMissingThePoint Like I’m patiently waiting to kill you?]]

* An interaction between Noob Saibot and Frost highlights just how desperate Frost craves recognition that she'll turn to Noob Saibot for approval, only to be rejected in a harsher manner than Sub-Zero had:
-->'''Frost:''' You should have been Grandmaster.\\
'''Noob Saibot:''' [[HeManWomanHater I would not allow female Lin Kuei]].\\
'''Frost:''' (visibly crushed) [[BrokenPedestal You're worse than Kuai Liang]]!

* Noob Saibot has one with Scorpion, showcasing just how far gone the former Sub-Zero is.
-->'''Noob Saibot:''' No true Lin Kuei could stomach you.\\
'''Scorpion:''' [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Does that include your brother?]]\\
'''Noob Saibot:''' [[CainAndAbel What brother?]]

* This one between D'Vorah and Sub-Zero, highlighting the respect Kuai had for Scorpion:
-->'''Sub-Zero:''' [[AndThisIsFor This is for Hanzo]].\\
'''D'Vorah:''' Scorpion was [[ArchEnemy your enemy]].\\
'''Sub-Zero:''' [[WorthyOpponent He was]] [[FireForgedFriend my equal]].

* One intro dialogue between Kitana and Liu Kang shows how difficult their relationship is in the face of Outworld's FantasticRacism towards humans:
-->'''Kitana:''' Kotal's right, we must end this.\\
'''Liu Kang:''' But we have only just begun, Kitana.\\
'''Kitana:''' [[StarCrossedLovers Outworlders will never accept us.]]
* This intro dialogue between Geras and Baraka hints at how sad Geras' life is:
-->'''Geras:''' Your tribe is so populous.\\
'''Baraka''': How many are in yours?\\
'''Geras''': [[FriendlessBackground I am eternally alone.]]
* One intro for a MirrorMatch between two Liu Kangs reveals a surprisingly tragic reason for their fight.
-->'''Liu Kang 1:''' Why come to this timeline?\\
'''Liu Kang 2:''' (''visibly saddened'') [[TheLostLenore My Kitana died...]] Yours still lives.\\
'''Liu Kang 1:''' [[SympathyForTheDevil I pity you...]] But you should leave.
* Terminator has one that is surprisingly sad with Nightwolf:
-->'''Terminator:''' There are no Matokan on my earth.\\
'''Nightwolf:''' We [[CosmicRetcon never existed]]?\\
'''Terminator:''' [[EverybodysDeadDave You were destroyed and forgotten.]]
* Skarlet might have been evil to the core, but that doesn't make her completely devoid of sympathy.
--> '''Noob Saibot''': [[StreetUrchin You have no family]]?\\
'''Skarlet''': Yes, I am an orphan, Bi-Han.\\
'''Noob Saibot''': [[LackOfEmpathy Then who will mourn you]]?
* Noob, as [[DeadpanSnarker barb-tongued]] and MadeOfEvil as can be, is also as much a victim of circumstance as characters such as Reptile or (original timeline) Sindel.
** Just a painful reminder of the injustice that made Noob who he is now:
-->'''Noob''': I was killed unjustly.\\
'''Raiden''': For that, Scorpion lost my trust.\\
'''Noob''': '''''That is not justice'''''.
** Remember how Noob hates the younger Sub-Zero using the mantle? There's a tragic reason for that.
-->'''Noob''': Still trading on my name?\\
'''Sub-Zero''': A name you forsook long ago!\\
'''Noob''': Not. Willingly.
* Mileena's interactions reveal Tanya is confirmed to have been KilledOffScreen in the interim between ''X'' and ''11''. Mileena is absolutely furious about this, considering how close they were, and she's out for more blood than usual in quite a few interactions. In fact, it's possible the reason Mileena's bloodthirstier than ever in ''11'' is because she's just that pissed off about it.
-->'''Mileena:''' Jade will die as Tanya did!\\
'''Kotal Kahn:''' Return her to me, Mileena!\\
'''Mileena:''' Never! You must feel my pain!

-->'''Kano:''' Well color me gobsmacked. You and Tanya?\\
'''Mileena:''' Name your price, Kano! I must avenge her!\\
'''Kano:''' Because it's personal, it's gonna cost extra.
** Even worse? One intro with Rain implies Tanya's feelings might not have been as mutual as it seems.
-->'''Rain:''' Direct your anger at Tanya, Mileena.\\
'''Mileena:''' It was ''YOU'' who betrayed me, not her!\\
'''Rain:''' Think, Mileena. [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Who introduced us?]]
