The 2021 Mortal Kombat movie is getting a new collectible 4K Blu-ray ahead of the sequel’s theatrical release this October. Fans can preorder Mortal Kombat Limited Edition Steelbook for $35 at Amazon or $30 at Gruv. The new edition launches October 7, just in time for a rewatch before heading to the theater for Mortal Kombat II on October 24. In the meantime, you can add to your Blu-ray collection by grabbing the other live-action and animated Mortal Kombat adaptations for cheap.
$35 | Releases October 7
The Limited Edition Steelbook has a brand-new cover featuring Scorpion’s iconic mask on the front and his deadly kunai on the back. Inside, the cover features a still from the movie of Sub-Zero as he prepares an ice-dagger weapon. The film is presented in upscaled 4K resolution and supports HDR10. For audio, there are multiple Dolby surround sound options, including Atmos, TrueHD 7.1, and Digital 5.1.
Bonus materials aren’t listed for this release, but it’s possible that the special features from earlier Blu-ray releases are omitted here. The 2021 4K release included a 1080p Blu-ray with bonus content, but the Limited Edition Steelbook only comes with the one 4K disc.
The Steelbook Edition does come with a voucher to claim the digital version of Mortal Kombat. As an added bonus, it’s eligible for Movies Anywhere, so you can download/stream the film on a wide variety of apps and devices.
The 2021 reboot is a brutal adaptation of the iconic fighting game series. It faithfully brings the fantastical story of the games into the real world, pitting fan-favorite characters like Kung Lao, Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, and newcomer Cole Young against Shang Tsung and his sinister forces.
Mortal Kombat has had a long history on the big and small screen, and you can relive it through various Blu-rays currently available for sale. The original and wonderfully cheesy 1995 film is still a treat and on sale for under $10, the terrible sequel Mortal Kombat Annihilation remains laughably bad. There’s also Mortal Kombat Legacy, the live-action web-series that ran for two seasons and took a big step in the right direction. You can get both of the ’90s live-action films and Legacy Season 1 for only $11 on Blu-ray thanks to the Mortal Kombat Triple Feature.
