Mortal Kombat 2 Standard Edition preorders:
Continuing shortly after the events of Mortal Kombat, the sequel sees the battle for Earthrealm finally begin. Outworld emperor Shao Kahn will stop at nothing to win the Mortal Kombat tournament so that he can finally invade Earth, and it's up to a handful of chosen champions to step up and thwart the tyrant's schemes. Mortal Kombat 2 features an expanded cast with new and familiar faces in the roster.
One of the big additions to the roster is Karl Urban--who portrays former Hollywood action star Johnny Cage--and several other fan-favorite characters like Kitana, Baraka, and Noob Saibot also appear in the movie.
If you're looking to complete your Blu-ray collection, you can pick up several more Mortal Kombat movies on 4K Blu-ray. A steelbook edition of the 2021 movie is still available through Amazon for $30, and the classic '90s movie adaptations were recently remastered in 4K and are scheduled to be released on June 30.
