Goro is without a doubt one of the most unique Mortal Kombat characters we know. He has a lot of arms, powerful ones, and he also has great powers, too! In the video game, it is not that easy to beat Goro. Based on that, we think Goro will make a great costume to wear, especially if you are a true fan of Mortal Kombat.

Since it comes as a couple costume, your partner can wear a female version of Scorpion costume. But instead of wearing the iconic yellow costume, she can add some twists to the costume and make it look more badass.

If you ask us, we have to admit that Kitana is one of our favorite characters in Mortal Kombat. She has a sweet look, yet she can fight and beat the most powerful Mortal Kombat characters using her weapons, which is a pair of razor-edged steel fans.

To pair Kitana, we think Raiden will be the best character to stand beside her. With a traditional Chinese costume, Raiden will make a perfect partner while he can also become a great partner to fight the enemies. To complete Raiden’s look, make sure you add the straw hat, too!
