Raiden first appeared as a playable fighter in the original Mortal Kombat, and returned in Mortal Kombat II, the 1993 arcade sequel that expanded the roster and the series' over-the-top finishing moves. As the god of thunder, he became one of its most recognisable faces, with his electric powers and distinctive look carrying through later games, films and re-releases. Short clips from the arcade era remain popular online because they are instantly recognisable, easy to drop into edits, and carry a strong sense of nineties nostalgia for players who grew up with the series.

Raiden's iconic voice line from Mortal Kombat II, a short game sound effect often used in edits, reaction videos and memes for dramatic entrances.
This short Mortal Kombat II clip captures Raiden, the thunder god, in a brief burst of arcade fighting game audio that is instantly recognisable to fans of the series. It has the punchy, digitised quality of early nineties arcade sound, with Raiden's commanding presence cutting through in just over a second. Played on its own it feels dramatic and over-the-top, like a sudden challenge or entrance, which is why it lands so well in short videos. The clip is too brief to tell a story by itself, but it works as a sharp accent that grabs attention and signals that something powerful, comic or chaotic is about to happen.
