Sub-Zero is a name used by two characters in the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games and NetherRealm Studios. They are depicted as two Chinese brothers and ninja warriors of the Lin Kuei clan principally defined by their blue attire and ability to control ice in many forms. Both incarnations of Sub-Zero are the only series characters to have appeared in every main installment of the series in addition to being featured as the protagonist of the spin-off Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero (1997).
The franchise's original and current Sub-Zero is Bi-Han (
Character design and gameplay
Sub-Zero was first conceived by Mortal Kombat co-creator
In his early appearances, Sub-Zero was primarily portrayed and voiced by non-Asian actors.[14] Midway Games later explained Sub-Zero's rather occidental appearance for a Chinese assassin by giving him a white mother. According to this new backstory, his father had a wife, two sons, and a daughter while he lived in America to hide his personal role as an assassin for the Lin Kuei.[15] Midway Games programmer Josh Tsui portrayed the unmasked Sub-Zero (Kuai Liang) in the character's Mortal Kombat II ending.[16]
Sub-Zero's early costumes have been very simple due to technical limitations.
When he first appeared in the first Mortal Kombat, Sub-Zero featured only two special moves: his ice blast and sliding kick. These moves have become Sub-Zero's trademark since then, being featured in every game that Sub-Zero has appeared in (Mortal Kombat II and subsequent games feature a younger Sub-Zero whose identity is Kuai Liang). Mortal Kombat II added his ground freeze move, and two new Fatalities including the now-famous one where he would freeze and shatter the victim. According to Boon, Sub-Zero's Freeze was originally omitted from the game in place of the Ice Shower, but was brought back in the next revision following fan feedback at a local arcade.[13] Sub-Zero's Predator-inspired[22] Fatality, the "Spine Rip," is considered by Boon to be his favorite Fatality from the first game as well as the most controversial.[23] Some home versions of the first game replaced the "Spine Rip" with another finishing move due to its violent content, for instance the SNES port had a freeze and shatter finishing move due to Nintendo's "family friendly" policies (this tame fatality received a positive reception so it was added to Sub-Zero's arsenal in the sequels).[24][25] Unlike other returning characters whose moves remained intact, the spine rip Fatality was not carried over to Mortal Kombat II and Mortal Kombat 3, (an explanation is because Kuai Liang was heroic compared to his villainous brother Bi-Han)[26] but was brought back in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 as one of Classic Sub-Zero's finishers. However, the move was intentionally censored[clarification needed] by Midway; right after he grabbed onto his opponent, the screen went black and only the resulting sound effects were heard. This was due to the development team choosing not to animate the spine rip fatality for each of the updated character sprites in the game[clarification needed] The Nintendo 64 port of Mortal Kombat Trilogy gives Sub-Zero's special techniques and finishing moves to the classic masked version, due to the fact the N64's cartridge format had memory restrictions that did not allow the use of both masked and unmasked characters. The developers had to remove the "Spine Rip" from Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe as that game was aimed at a younger audience.[27] Sub-Zero also gained a teleporting move in the game in which he freezes himself and falls back to the ground, appearing behind the foe.[18]

In Mortal Kombat 1 (2023), following Kronika's defeat and Fire God Liu Kang creating a third new timeline, Bi-Han became Sub-Zero once more and the Lin Kuei's grandmaster following his father's death who believes Liu Kang is limiting the clan's potential. Furthermore, Kuai Liang became the pyromancer Scorpion and the Lin Kuei are Earthrealm's centuries-old protectors. Both are playable characters while Kuai Liang appears as an assist character, or "Kameo Fighter". In the story mode, Liu Kang sends Bi-Han, Kuai Liang, and their adopted brother Smoke to investigate Shang Tsung. However, the brothers are captured before Shang Tsung sways Bi-Han to his side by promising him control of the undead Dragon Army. Bi-Han agrees and betrays Kuai Liang, revealing he allowed their father to die for his perceived weakness. Kuai Liang and Smoke subsequently escape to help Liu Kang stop Shang Tsung before heading to Japan to found the Shirai Ryu clan and replace the Lin Kuei as Earthrealm's protectors. Meanwhile, Lin Kuei clansman Sektor advises Bi-Han to bolster their forces with science and machinery instead of the Dragon Army as Liu Kang will detect their magic.

The Bi-Han incarnation of Sub-Zero appears in Mortal Kombat (2021), portrayed by Joe Taslim. This version is the leader of the Lin Kuei and ally of Shang Tsung who personally led the attack that killed most of Hanzo Hasashi's family before killing Hasashi himself. In the present, Bi-Han helps Shang Tsung ensure Outworld's victory in the Mortal Kombat tournament. However, he is defeated and killed by Hasashi and the latter's descendant Cole Young before Shang Tsung claims Bi-Han's body. Taslim was surprised by how violent was his character and his death, which convinced him to take the role.[63] Additionally, he has stated that he found Sub-Zero "cool and he's just kickass" and wanted to humanize him, wanting audiences to feel his pain and that he still has dilemmas. He felt the character became scary and lacked any sort of humanity in the final project.[64]
The Kuai Liang incarnation of Sub-Zero appears in Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms and Mortal Kombat Legends: Snow Blind, voiced by Bayardo De Murguia in the former[65] and Ron Yuan in the latter.
Merchandise and promotion
Merchandise items of the character include action figures,[66][67] statues,[68][69][70][71] and a joystick released along with Mortal Kombat: Deception for the PlayStation 2.[72]
Reception
Deemed one of the most popular and recognizable characters in the Mortal Kombat franchise, as well as in the fighting-genre as a whole, Sub-Zero is regarded as the franchise's most iconic character along with Scorpion. He was given the award of the best fighter of 1997 by SuperGamePower (readers vote).
Conversely, Hyper's John Dewhurst opined that what contributed to the failure of Mythologies Sub-Zero is that Sub-Zero's character alone "isn't that interesting without Johnny Cage and Kitana to bounce off."[84] GameDaily listed his appearance in Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero as one of his worst moments.[85] On the other hand, IGN staff liked how Sub-Zero was given his own video game, noting him to be one of the series' most popular characters, and that "it offers gamers a new look at Sub Zero."[86] Den of Geek listed the first Sub-Zero as the eighth best Mortal Kombat character, praising his role in Mythologies Sub-Zero whereas the second Sub-Zero was listed as the top Mortal Kombat based on many of his actions such as his rivalry with Batman, as well as his role in the series such as his relationship with the Lin Kuei.[87] His redesign in Mortal Kombat 3 was disliked by GamePro, which they deemed "suspenders" and compared his scar to a red smear.[88] However, his appearance in Deadly Alliance received praise by Gaming Age's Tim Lewinson noting that "Sub-Zero never looked so good."[89] According to GameSpot's Jeff Gerstmann, the unlocking of the hidden character Classic Sub-Zero in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 was "annoying" to the point that players would not do it.[31]
IGN included Sub-Zero's first incarnation at 85th place in their list of 100 video game villains.
The Escapist called the Scorpion and Sub-Zero-themed episode 7 "one of the best episodes" in the series, lending an emotional weight to the most famous tale in the franchise.[107] On the other hand, Film School Rejects bemoaned the series' expectation that its viewers be knowledgeable about the franchise's history, explaining that without previous knowledge of the games, the viewer is left with too many questions that may never be answered.[108] Stephen Wilds of ComingSoon.net said that while it is a cliche that Sub-Zero is rude mentor to Kenshi, the fact that he is tired of fighting might divide the audience.[109] Ron Yuan's voice acting as Sub-Zero was praised by Comic Book Resources.[110] Taslim's portrayal of the character was praised by Los Angeles Times for his violent moves performed on several characters from the 2021 movie referring to him as "a Takashi Miike remake of Frozen".[111] Espinof agreed with both Sub-Zero's handling and Scorpion so much they would like to have them explored more in a prequel.[112] Discussing Film enjoyed how entertaining is Sub-Zero as a villain due to the action scenes he is involved.[113] However, GamesRadar+ was more critical to the character, claiming he lacked a personality in the film other than being one of Shang Tsung's pawns.[114]
