Raiden is a god, therefore, he is immortal. In Shinnok's case, it is stated that he cannot be killed because he's a god. He could have his head lopped off and dropped in the Netherrealm, but he won't die.
The biggest nod to that is how Raiden looks. His normally white eyes and lightning are now a blood red, signifying that he is evil. The process corrupted the Lightning God as he now possesses Shinnok's amulet, and he is hateful toward Earthrealm.
In Mortal Kombat 11, Fujin is revealed to be Raiden's younger brother. This, according to Fujin, was the only time they ever came to quarrel with one another.
There were plenty of non-white actors in the original Mortal Kombat films. Liu Kang was asian, Jax was black, Jade was asian, Kitana was hispanic, etc. The only character that was whitewashed was Raiden. In fact, the original motion capture actor to play Raiden in the video games was Carlos Pesina.
Reconciling what we see in this clip with how the story mode for 2015's Mortal Kombat X ended, Raiden is now officially a villain -- and an unforgiving one at that. His descent into darkness started back to 2011's Mortal Kombat, the ninth core installment in the series that also served as a soft reboot of sorts.
Story. Sindel served as the queen of Edenia some ten thousand years before the events of the first Mortal Kombat. A benevolent woman and wife to the Edenian King Jerrod and mother of Princess Kitana, she was captured when Shao Kahn's forces invaded from Outworld.
"Raiden was one of the most hated characters in gaming, mostly because he abruptly replaced Snake as the lead in Metal Gear Solid 2, though it didnt help that he was prone to fits of whining. Even though he showed flashes of swordsmanship akin to the beloved Cyborg Ninja, fans rejected him with a passion.
Raiden (??, Raiden?), real name Jack, also known as Jack the Ripper, White Devil, and Snake, was a Liberian-American mercenary and former special forces soldier.
Raiden is the eternal God of Thunder, protector of Earthrealm, and arguably one of the most powerful characters in all of Mortal Kombat. After the second defeat of Shinnok, he ascended to the status of Elder God.
It's a proven fact that hair becoming gray/white at an early age is from major stress, and Raiden's life sure did get stressful overtime. From being lied to about his child being stillborn by Rose, and then involuntarily getting turned into a cyborg, both in MGS4, he would be pretty stressed, to say the least.
It is believed he is over 10 000 years old.) Raiden (Haokah): Eternal (It is believed he's been around since even before life on Earthrealm began.)
It's not his original body, at least not by the looks of it. He had multiple scarrings all over, so I am guessing they grafted skin to his exoskeleton to make him more "human". But ya, he survives.
As a prisoner, the Patriots used Raiden as a test subject for experiments in exoskeletal enhancement surgery, during which he had his head and spine excised from his body from his lower jaw down and subsequently grafted into an enhanced synthetic body.
Noob. k, when Shadow Moses collapsed on top of him his right arm was pinned. He dislocated his right shoulder to give him some slack to reach his sword, which he used to cut off his right arm.
Raiden can eat, and his nanomachines digest the food so, he needs a toilet after that or has an artificial anus he can smell, and taste, and can turn it on and off
The real reason why Raiden was called "Snake" is because he represents the player having taken the role of Solid Snake in previous games/VR missions/Tanker Chapter. Minor nitpick, but a solidus isn't a gas, it represents a point between solid and liquid states.

In TPP you're Big Boss, who was called Naked Snake in the 60s, and is now called Punished "Venom" Snake. He has a reputation as the greatest soldier of all time. In MG1, MG2 and MGS, etc. you're Solid Snake, a clone of Big Boss.
Considering both modes together are a x70 speed boost, Raiden's base speed would be around 1,243,406.58 m/s or Mach 3657.078.
And Snake's not allowed to be dead, so he isn't. Hideo Kojima has apparently gone on-record and confirmed that not only is Metal Gear Solid 5 happening, series hero Solid Snake is also still alive and kicking even though he was supposed to die at the end of MGS4.
It means Snake is Raiden's friend and mentor figure and adoptive Uncle through Solidus.
He is a character who accepts his flaws and difficult background. Raiden knows he is seen as evil by many people but he doesn't care because he is doing what he must to fight for his beliefs.
The name Raiden is primarily a male name of Japanese origin that means God Spirit.
Formerly the God of Thunder, Raiden is one of the wisest and most powerful beings in the universe. His control over lightning allowed him to travel at the speed of light, summon lightning, and perform resurrection. Raiden isn't indestructible, and cannot use his powers outside his domain.
Thor will beat radien he can take more damage than raiden and can give more than radien like Thor can tank shots from celestials, a god bomb, Galactus and raiden has never done anything on that level.
As opposed to being a warrior fighting for Earthrealm, Sub-Zero is an evil pawn already under Shang Tsung's control. During the initiation dinner, Sub-Zero ruthlessly kills a warrior for demonstration purposes alone. He is ultimately defeated by the Shaolin monk Liu Kang, which also never happened in the game.
