The series reboot, Mortal Kombat 9, features an alternate timeline in which the story of the first Mortal Kombat is retold with slight changes throughout. When it started to crack, Reptile was struck by a light and was possessed by the Dragon King, transforming Reptile's body into a humanoid dragon.This was only temporary however as he was eventually defeated. In the lava caves where the item Nitara sought was, Reptile stumbled upon a very large egg. Reptile started to realize that Nitara played him the entire time, stopping him so that the Deadly Alliance could kill Shao Kahn. Nitara's plan was to use Cyrax to retrieve an item for her which neither she nor Reptile could get themselves with the promise of returning Cyrax home.

She had him attack Cyrax whom was investigating Outworld for Earth's Special Forces and damaged the device that would allow Cyrax to return to the Earthrealm. Reptile started wandering aimlessly until he came across Nitara again and agreed to serve her. He blamed himself for Shao Kahn's death, believing that if he got there in time he could had aided his master. Reptile then started towards Shao Kahn again but he was too late, Reptile saw Shao Kahn's corpse. Shao Kahn sent Reptile to request Shang Tsung's presence, but upon arriving he overheard Shang Tsung's and Quan Chi's plans and went to warn Shao Kahn, but he was halted by Nitara whom had knowledge of Reptile's race and gave him a sword crafted by his people. But Shinnok lost and Reptile went back to Outworld to serve Shao Kahn. When Shinnok later overthrew Edenia, he freed Reptile who agreed to serve Shinnok in return for him reviving his race. After Shao Kahn was defeated, Reptile was brought back to Edenia as a war criminal and imprisoned. When Kitana escaped custody, Shao Kahn sent Reptile and Jade to capture the renegade princess but Jade betrayed Reptile and they defeated him.

After Shang Tsung's defeat, Reptile returned to Shao Kahn's side. Shao Kahn sent Reptile to watch over, and watch Shang Tsung during the Mortal Kombat tournament on Earth. Reptile serves Shao Kahn as his personal bodyguard and is willing to serve Shao Kahn in any way hoping that Shao Kahn will help restore his race.

But an unknown amount of time later, Shao Kahn invaded Zaterra and conquered it. The Saurians used to live on Earth but 150 millions years ago during a battle between gods, they were forced to flee the Earthrealm to another realm called Zaterra. Reptile is one of the last members of his race of Saurians.
