If you pre-ordered the game, you got an extra character called Shang Tsung.
After the game's release, there were six more characters you could get as downloadable content through something called the "Kombat Pack." This pack also included a special look for Johnny Cage that made him look like and sound like Jean-Claude Van Damme.

The main game has 15 of these Kameo Fighters, and there are plans to add five more as downloadable content. You can choose these fighters separately from the main group of fighters. Some characters can even be both Kameo Fighters and main fighters. Even guest characters from other series can be Kameo Fighters.

Mortal Kombat 1 Plot
After defeating Kronika and Shang Tsung, Liu Kang, now a Fire God, uses Kronika's Hourglass to recreate the universe. He gives up control to avoid being corrupted by power. He forms an alliance with Outworld and decides to continue the Mortal Kombat tournaments. In the present, Liu Kang recruits Kung Lao, Raiden, Johnny Cage, and Kenshi to join the latest tournament. Raiden becomes Earthrealm's champion.
Geras informs Liu Kang that Shang Tsung is back, advising Outworld's Empress Sindel. Liu Kang sends Kenshi, Kung Lao, and Johnny to investigate. They encounter Tarkatans and Shang Tsung extracting bone marrow from their leader, Baraka. They stop Shang Tsung but are captured by Mileena and Kitana.
