Noob Saibot was then first introduced in 1993's "Mortal Kombat II" as a hidden nonplayable opponent whom players fought in a secret battle in the "Goro's Lair" stage from the first game after winning fifty consecutive matches. He was a solid black palette swap of Sub-Zero who fought with increased speed and Scorpion's spear. He returned as a secret character in "Mortal Kombat 3" with the same attributes, but was instead a silhouette of Kano, since there were no human ninjas in the game, and in the Sega Game Gear port, he additionally had Kano's special moves and his "Eye Laser" Fatality. Upon being made playable in the console versions of "UMK3" and the 1996 compilation title "Mortal Kombat Trilogy", Noob Saibot returned as a palette-swap ninja, and one of ten human ninja swaps in the game overall. Although early versions of "Mortal Kombat 4" featured him as a playable character, he was changed back to being hidden in the final arcade release.
