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. Following this comes a number of physical editions, with the 4K UHD Blu-ray, regular Blu-ray and DVD release slated for July 28. The physical editions…
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 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…

Just under one month remains until T-1000 becomes a playable kombatant in Mortal Kombat 1. Voiced by Robert Patrick himself, T-1000 served as the main antagonist in the 1991 smash hit Terminator 2: Judgment Day. A highly advanced model crafted by Skynet out of liquid metal (or mimetic polyalloy as referenced in the film), T-1000 is able to shape shift and take on the likeness of other humans as a form of ultimate deception. Available beginning March 18, T-1000 rounds out Kombat Pack 2. Surprisingly (or perhaps not so much), Madam Bo is also set to join the roster as…
It’s been decades since a Mortal Kombat title had any form of seriously exciting secrets to uncover. Gone are the days when secrets would be shared exclusively via word of mouth and magazine articles. Enter Floyd, a pink ninja who has generated an enormous amount of buzz since his introduction in the January 2025 update patch for Mortal Kombat 1. Much in the same way that the purple ninja Rain was based on a famous Prince track, Floyd and his pink attire is an obvious nod to English rock band Pink Floyd. Similar to Chameleon, Floyd harnesses moves from all…
After an extensive period without any real news, NetherRealm Studios have today unleashed a gameplay trailer for Conan the Barbarian alongside three screenshots. Likely to be Mortal Kombat 1’s penultimate addition to its roster, Conan will become available during the early access period beginning January 21, with wide availability beginning January 28. The second Mortal Kombat title to feature Arnold Schwarzenegger’s likeness in succession, Conan the Barbarian is based on the 1982 film of the same name. Born on a battlefield, Conan was sold into slavery after his parents were slain and village destroyed by the malevolent warlord Thulsa Doom.…
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…
