Visuals aside, Mortal Kombat has long been known for its incredible music and sound design spanning over thirty years. While soundtracks can often be found littered across the internet in various formats, we have in recent weeks been working on updated compilations for each and every game. In addition to simply collating tracks, we have brought our own flavour to the mix, adjusting LUFS (Loudness Units relative to Full Scale) to ensure a pleasurable listening experience across a variety of devices. Soundtracks are currently available for the following titles: We have many more compilations in the works, so be sure…
After amassing more than $125 million at the worldwide box office, Mortal Kombat II is all set to arrive on digital and in physical form over the coming weeks.

The film, regarded by as a huge step up from the original, arrives on all popular digital streaming services on June 9.

After attending the star-studded premiere of Mortal Kombat II at the IMAX theatre in Sydney, Christopher and Toasty sit down together for the first time to review the film from start to finish.
With the theatrical release of Mortal Kombat II less than two weeks away, Christopher, Toasty and Kung Lew share their hopes, their fears and their final thoughts ahead of its premiere.
Toasty and McCage provide an in-depth analysis and review episodes 3 and 4 of 1998’s Mortal Kombat: Conquest television series, titled Cold Reality and Immortal Kombat respectively.
Toasty is joined by McCage and Kung Lew to breakdown the second trailer for Mortal Kombat II, which premieres worldwide on 8th May 2026.
The second trailer for 2026’s Mortal Kombat II movie has dropped, and is sure to whet more than a few appetites. Once again, protagonist Johnny Cage (Karl Urban) is front and centre, seemingly thrust into a world he doesn’t quite understand. While numerous fan theories currently exist, many believe the film’s first half will focus on the film star while the latter half will focus more on the rise of Kitana and Earthrealm’s warriors against the evil emperor Shao Kahn. Guess we’ll have to wait and see. What do you think of this latest trailer? Be sure to keep an…

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…
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…

Following the release of Mortal Kombat II in the mid-nineties, a multi-arc comic line was released by Malibu comics. While much of their storylines played out like an extension of the games’ stories, the writers were given freedoms to develop their own characters and tangents. In his latest video, tabmok99 takes an in-depth look at the series which featured many preemptions that came true in titles some years later. The comics also gave readers their first look at characters only previously mentioned by name, such as King Jerrod of Edenia.

Have you ever wondered what Mortal Kombat II would look like as a 3D title? YouTuber Bitplex has paid homage to his favourite title in the series by taking this question and making it a reality. Rather than creating high-quality renders of the game’s arenas and kombatants or using modern techniques such as motion capture (a la the cancelled Mortal Kombat HD Arcade Kollection), Bitplex has modelled the game’s original sprites and textures onto 3D models.
Highly esteemed and longtime Mortal Kombat kommunity member tabmok99 recently posted a video to his YouTube channel detailing one of the greatest mysteries in the franchise: the elusive male ninja Chameleon. First appearing in Mortal Kombat Trilogy as a fusion of the game’s multiple palette-swapped ninjas, Chameleon later returned in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon as a fully-fledged kombatant. Despite having an ending, it didn’t do much to quell the shroud of mystery surrounding him… Justin is an asset to the kommunity and regularly posts many interesting in-depth videos covering a variety of Mortal Kombat topics.

Hot on the heels of their surprise reveal back in November comes our first proper look at the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in their very own gameplay trailer. Their inclusion caps off an incredible three seasons of DLC for Injustice 2, bringing the total roster of playable characters to a whopping 41. Each turtle brings with them their own unique dialogue, animations and attitude, with players able to take control of Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael or Michelangelo by choice. The foursome share only anatomy, with each playing completely differently due to their differing fight styles and weapons.
NetherRealm Studios continues its strong line-up of Injustice 2 DLC with the addition of Enchantress as part of Fighter Pack 3. Her inclusion follows Atom who was introduced in late 2017. The all-too ordinary life of June Moone ended the day she was possessed by the Enchantress, a demonic sorceress with aspirations of world domination. Today, she fights for her very soul, struggling to harness the Enchantress’ magic for good. If she fails, the Enchantress will consume her — and our world won’t be far behind.
Hellboy will become the third and final character to be added to the roster in Injustice 2 as part of Fighter Pack 2 come November 14. His inclusion follows last month’s introduction of Mortal Kombat’s popular thunder god Raiden, as well as Black Manta back in September. Created by writer-artist Mike Mignola, Hellboy first made his appearance in August 1993 in San Diego Comic-Con Comics #2. He has since made numerous guest appearances in varying forms of media, and starred in two live-action feature films in 2004 and 2008 starring Ron Perlman. A half-demon who true name is Anung Un Rama, Hellboy…
