30 Years of Kombat, Fatalities, Friendships, and Victories! Join us as we celebrate the legacy of Mortal Kombat!

 On behalf of the entire team at NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros. Games, thank you to all of the fans who have supported Mortal Kombat throughout the past 30 years. As we look back on three decades of franchise history, the passion and excitement of our fans is the foundation that makes Mortal Kombat what it is today. To honor this milestone, please enjoy our commemorative Mortal Kombat 30th Anniversary video and join us in celebrating 30 years of Kombat across all forms of entertainment, from videogames, to movies, to animation, and more.

Nobody would have predicted that a video game paying homage to gory, B-movies would have such an impact on pop-culture, and until now NetherRealm has been constantly updating the games for new generations of audiences to enjoy.

Personally, I think they kind of lost the comedy element to the original games, but I guess everything still fits in the unique brand that is Mortal Kombat.

Mortal Kombat 11 is now available for PC, PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. You can check out several kinds of MK adaptations on HBO Max.
