One of the more notable features of Kano is his facetious and twisted sense of humour, almost always making light of most circumstances.
As of Mortal Kombat X, Kano's cybernetics have been upgraded and extended through his entire body.
This includes a cybernetic "heart" similar to Hsu Hao, which serves as a booster to his cybernetic enhancements.
He is one of the few original characters, debuting in the first Mortal Kombat arcade game.
He was the first member of the Black Dragon to appear in the series, followed by many others.
