Mortal Kombat MUGEN Characters
Updated 19 Sep 2026
Mortal Kombat in MUGEN is still mostly full games, but the character folder is growing. Two standalone fighters are live today. Fifteen more are scheduled through 4 Oct 2026 (OMEGAPSYCHO's MK1 and MK2 arcade conversions, plus Chuchoryu's Shao Kahn). Ranked full games stay on the existing Best Mortal Kombat post — they are not copied here.
Fan conversions, not NetherRealm or Warner Bros. Downloads are on each listing. Different-author versions of Scorpion and Sub-Zero are extra listings, not replacements.
Full games
The ranked list is Best Mortal Kombat MUGEN Games (New Era 6.0, MKP 2026, Bloody Battle, MKP 4.1). Open that post if you want a Mortal Kombat MUGEN download as a complete game.

JJkoolaid's Grandmaster Sub-Zero. The older Sub-Zero, not a full MK pack. A separate OMEGAPSYCHO MK1 Sub-Zero is scheduled.

Best standalone ninja — Scorpion (SeanAltly). If you only add one MK guest to a mixed roster, add this.
Best ice — Grandmaster Sub-Zero (JJkoolaid). Pair with Scorpion if you want the movie poster team and nothing else.

- The Pit (Taybear) is the stage listing if you want the classic background without a full pack.
- This page will gain rows as the scheduled listings go live through 4 Oct 2026.
