Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero is a 1997 action game developed by Avalanche Software and published by Midway.
Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero is a 1997 action-adventure game developed and published by Midway for the PlayStation and Nintendo 64. A spin-off of the Mortal Kombat franchise, it is the first installment not to be a fighting game. Set before the original game, it follows Bi-Han, the elder Sub-Zero, in his quest to find Shinnok's amulet. It also introduces characters and story elements that would be used by Mortal Kombat 4, which was released later the same year. Mythologies is the final game in the series to use digitized actors.
The game drew a divisive response from critics, with the PlayStation version considered the superior of the two releases. Praise was directed at the transition from the fighting game genre to action-adventure and the PlayStation version's live-action cutscenes, but the controls and punishing level design received criticism. Retrospective reviews have been more negative and some consider the game as one of the worst in the Mortal Kombat franchise. The game was re-released in 2025 as part of the Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection compilation.
