How Mortal Kombat invented the ESRB
A moral panic that changed the video game industry

During a joint hearing before two Senate committees in 1993, Sen. Joe Lieberman called for a bulky TV to be wheeled in so he could show a video excerpt to illustrate a point. It was a brutal scene from
Mortal Kombat blood splattering from Sonia’s head before Kano rips out her heart. In a second clip, Sub-Zero finished Raiden by ripping his head off, spine still attached.
Gruesome fatalities, sure, but nothing I’d bat an eye at now, after seeing how the Mortal Kombat franchise has evolved in almost 30 years since. Think of Baraka tearing off his enemy’s face, layer by layer, before skewering their brain and taking a big ol’ bite out of it. Or maybe D’Vorah vomiting insect larvae into an opponent’s mouth; a spider eventually bursts from their body, their entrails dangling like jewelry.
