📋 About This Mod
Mod
Replaces Johnny Cage's second skin with Nicolas Cage.
Please note that while this mod is fully compatible with all of his gear, some glasses may clip into his nose in the character customisation screen only; in gameplay everything looks fine. I recommend using the same one I have equipped in the screenshots.

A simple cosmetic mod that replaces Johnny Cage's second skin with Nicolas Cage's face. With 13 endorsements and 460 downloads, it's a niche pick for Mortal Kombat fans who want a celebrity twist. Last updated January 2026, so it's fresh.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fresh update from January 2026, so it's likely compatible with current game patches.
- Simple swap for fans who want a laugh—Nicolas Cage as Johnny Cage is a meme-worthy combo.
- Small but active niche (13 endorsements) means it's a passion project, not a cash grab.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects one skin—if you don't use the second skin, you won't see the change.
- No screenshots or install instructions provided, so you're flying blind on setup.
- Low endorsement count (13) suggests it's not widely tested—might have visual glitches.
For Mortal Kombat players who want a silly, recognizable face on Johnny Cage and don't mind a simple cosmetic swap. Skip if you're looking for gameplay tweaks or multiple skin replacements—this is purely a visual gag.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to back up your original skin files before overwriting, just in case you want to revert.
- If the mod doesn't show up in-game, double-check that you placed the files in the correct character skin folder.
- Since it's a skin replacement, it won't affect online play—your opponent won't see the change.
