Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks was released in 2005. While the GameCube received other MK titles (like Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance and Mortal Kombat: Deception), Shaolin Monks skipped the console due to hardware differences and lower sales projections for the action-adventure genre on that system at the time.
