The second online live action series will be available this fall online first before heading to home video.
Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition was recently released on Steam and is also available for purchase on major gaming consoles. The latest chapter of Mortal Kombat was released in 2011 by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, marking a triumphant return to the series’ roots. Selling nearly five million units worldwide, the reinvention of the franchise became the highest-selling fighting game of the year and won numerous “Best Fighting Game” awards, including Spike TV’s 2011 Video Game Awards, 2012 Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences Interactive Achievement Awards, and recognition from Game Informer, Official Xbox Magazine and GameTrailers.com.
The cast includes Harry Shum, Jr. (Glee) as the warlord adviser Kuai Liang, Casper Van Dien (Starship Troopers) as martial arts film actor Johnny Cage, Brian Tee (The Wolverine) as Shaolin Monk Liu Kang, and Mark Dacascos (Cradle 2 the Grave) as Kung Lao - a close friend of Liu Kang. Additionally, Ian Anthony Dale (Hawaii Five-O) returns as the resurrected ninja Scorpion, and Cary Tagawa reprises the role he made famous in the Mortal Kombat theatrical release as the powerful, arrogant sorcerer Shang Tsung.
First released in 1992, Mortal Kombat spread quickly from the arcade to home consoles, spawning a 20 year franchise that to date includes numerous sequels, two feature films, television shows, a comic book series and over 35 million games sold. Known for its popular characters, deep story line and its trademark “fatalities”, Mortal Kombat continues to be one of the most influential fighting games in video game history. The original development team, now known as NetherRealm Studios, led by creative director and game co-creator Ed Boon, continues to develop the game and build upon its enduring success and incredible fan support.
