The current Sub-Zero (the one with the scar on his eye) is Bi-Han’s younger brother Kuai Liang. The original Sub-Zero - who is killed by Scorpion - is named Bi-Han. There are technically two Sub-Zero characters. Scorpion’s rival Sub-Zero is another example of a character returning from the dead in different ways.

Yet he technically lives as a Revenant, a resurrected inhuman soldier controlled by Quan Chi.
Ever since the beginning of Mortal Kombat Scorpion has been dead, having originally been killed during the events of Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero before the first in-game tournament took place. Scorpion, the face of the Mortal Kombat series, is an interesting case. While fan (and developer) favoritism is a factor, there are also lore and story reasons for why and how Mortal Kombat characters return after being killed. Dead characters aren’t just coming back for the sake for popularity, though. If NetherRealm Studios stayed within the Mortal Kombat: Armageddon timeline there wouldn’t be any characters aside from Shao Kahn left. Many popular characters who die in the series somehow find themselves coming back in future games. In a series like Mortal Kombat, there are bound to be a lot of deaths.
