Also Canonically Mortal Kombat Armageddon.

Taven spends thousands of years frozen in stone after believing his parents were murdered, Then the moment he wakes up he goes on a epic quest to save the realm and prevent Armageddon by defeating Blaze to strip all the warriors of their overgrowing powers. Along the way he discovers his father cheated on his mother and his brother has betrayed him.

He succeeds in his quest but the result backfires. Blaze has been corrupted and instead makes everybody super-powerful instead of Super-weak. Superpowerful enhanced Shao Kahn then murders everyone, takes over all the realms, kills every living thing and goes insane because there's nothing left to conquer. Meanwhile Taven is forced to watch helplessly as an elder God, forbidden to interfere

I know MK9 retconned that via "Time Travel into a new timeline" but stil... Sheesh.
