A couple of weeks back we brought you the action-packed trailer for Warner Bros. Animation’s Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle Of The Realms. Now WB UK has confirmed when fans will be able to get their hands on this hotly anticipated sequel.
Picking up where last year’s Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge left off, Battle Of The Realms promises to be a huge movie, steeped in franchise lore. The film arrives from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on August 30, 2021 to Blu-ray™ and August 31, 2021 to digital platforms.
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.
