The battle of the realms is about to begin! Following last year’s Mortal Kombat Legends surprise, blockbuster hit, Scorpion’s Revenge, comes the MK hit of this summer: Battle of the Realms. Picking up shortly after its predecessor, this latest MK offering has the heroes once again facing Shao Kahn with the fate of the future hanging in the balance. Raiden & Co. are coming to you in full, 4K (and regular Blu-Ray) resolution just in time for Labor Day!
Here’s the official synopsis from Warner Bros.:
In Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms, our team of heroes are besieged by the enemy forces of Shao Kahn – forcing Raiden and his group of warriors into a deal to compete in a final Mortal Kombat that will determine the fate of the realms. Now our heroes must travel to Outworld in order to defend Earthrealm and, simultaneously, Scorpion must find the ancient Kamidogu before it’s used to resurrect the One Being – which would mean certain destruction of all things in the universe. Time is short and the stakes are high in this action-packed continuation of the Mortal Kombat journey.

Other returning cast members from Scorpion’s Revenge include: Jordan Rodrigues (Liu Kang), Patrick Seitz (Scorpion), and Dave B. Mitchell (Raiden).
