As largely expected, Digital Eclipse and Atari have used Evo 2025 to jointly announce the inclusion of Mortal Kombat Trilogy in Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection. Released in 1996, Mortal Kombat Trilogy quickly became a fan favourite, bringing together an enormous roster of kombatants and arenas. Although it was also released for Nintendo 64, it was the PlayStation and PC ports that really resonated with fans as they contained crisper graphics and additional characters. In fact, it is the PlayStation port specifically that will be included with this kollection. While the digital version of Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection is expected in…

The moment you have all been waiting for has arrived: Mortal Kombat II’s official red-band trailer is here. Proving that there is plenty of steam left in the 33-year-old franchise, Mortal Kombat returns to the silver screen this October with its second film following 2021’s reboot. The trailer has garnered so much attention that it has officially become the most viewed red-band trailer of all time, hitting 106.8 million views in only 24 hours. Seemingly centred around Johnny Cage, the trailer sees the failed action star thrust into a violent world he doesn’t fully understand. While the film shares some…

TOASTY! The man behind Mortal Kombat’s most iconic music tracks has announced his retirement from the team after more than three decades. Dan Forden served as one of the original four team members who created the original Mortal Kombat in 1992 alongside Ed Boon, John Tobias and John Vogel. Its unique digitised graphics and gruesome finishing moves aside, a huge part of Mortal Kombat’s appeal came from its catchy soundtrack and crispy sound effects. Game after game he continued to perfect his craft, and although others eventually joined the sound development team his influence remained front and centre. Wednesday was…

More news on the upcoming animated feature from Warner Bros. Animation is ramping up as earlier today we got the official trailer for Mortal Kombat Legends: Snow Bind, which is the third feature film in the Mortal Kombat Legends saga. In this epic adventure, the focus is set primarily on a young Kenshi.

Days after the sequel to 2021’s Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms was leaked via a German retailer, a recent article by IGN has provided further details on the film. Snow Blind is the third entry in the popular Warner Bros. Animation series, and will be released just shy of the franchise’s 30th anniversary later this year. Rick Morales returns to produce the film, as does the series’ writer Jeremy Adams, who serves as screenwriter for this project.

Ed Boon took to Twitter today to squash rumors of a Mortal Kombat 12 reveal at this year’s EVO tournament, saying “Its (sic) time for Street Fighter and other great fighting games to be in the sun!” The denial comes after rumors sprouted up around a news article from IGN saying that many popular developers, including Warner Bros., would have “big announcements” at this year’s tournament. While Mortal Kombat and other WB released games will be present during the event, which happens on August 5th through the 7th, it seems more likely that the announcement will be around MultiVersus rather…
Actor Casper Van Dien, who played Johnny Cage in the second season of the digital Mortal Kombat: Legacy series, released some behind-the-scenes pictures from the unreleased third season to his Instagram today, August 1. While this would have been the third digital season of content released, at the time there were conflicting reports as to exactly what this content would be. Some reports had this as a direct continuation of Kevin Tancharoen’s “Legacy” series, even after Tancharoen departed the project. Some images even made their way online, revealing the cover of the script saying “Mortal Kombat 3.” This is the…
Earlier this morning it appears that the next Mortal Kombat Legends film from Warner Animation is on the way via leak. Entitled “Mortal Kombat Legends: Snowblind”, the rumored movie is slated for an October 27, 2022 release date which is right around the 30th anniversary of the franchise. It is all speculation at this point. But if artwork and title holds true, it appears that the third entry in the Mortal Kombat Legends Series is a story centered around Kenshi and Kuai Liang Sub-Zero. This would be a rare case in Mortal Kombat media where we have a story beyond…
