Mortal Kombat II 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

Reviewed by Randy Miller III July 30, 2026

Available alongside their standard 4K and Blu-ray editions, Warner Bros. also offers this Limited Edition Steelbook 4K/Blu-ray combo pack of Simon McQuoid's Mortal Kombat II. As with the studio's other recent Steelbooks, the two main draws here are collectable packaging and having both formats (which used to be the rule, not the exception), since on-disc contents are exactly the same as those found on their widely-released counterparts.

For a synopsis and my thoughts about the film, please see either recent review linked above or check out Brian Orndorf's theatrical coverage. Needless to say, Mortal Kombat II ain't rocket science, but it at least seems to know this going in... and from that perspective, anyone just looking for a surface-level film that pays tribute to the bloody, brutal franchise -- and in my opinion, the best game of the bunch -- will get their money's worth here.

Mortal Kombat II 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras 

This two-disc release ships in a glossy Steelbook that, unlike that preview image at the top, does not feature any kind of embossing or debossing -- and while I generally like the design scheme here -- a threatening image of Shao Khan on the front, and Kitana wielding her razor-sharp fans on the back -- it would have been improved with more texture detail or spot-gloss elements. (I'm also not a fan of gloss finish since it shows fingerprints, but that's just my personal bias.) Inside is a wide splash image of Liu Kang and Kung Lao's intense fight during the tournament, which provides a nice visual contrast to the tighter exterior images, and both discs sit on overlapping hubs adjacent to the Digital Code code. Overall, this Steelbook could've been tweaked a little to make it even better, but it's still pretty decent.

As for the extras, they're identical to the 4K and Blu-ray releases and present on both discs.

• Mortal Kombat II: Evolving the Saga (6:34)

• Building the Realms of Mortal Kombat (5:51)

• Mortal Kombat II: Choose Your Fighter (5:53)

• Klose Quarters Kombat (6:35)

• A "Boon" to Gamers Everywhere (3:11)

Mortal Kombat II 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

Mortal Kombat II arrives five full years after its predecessor and this gap can be seen in its slightly unfocused first act... but once it goes into tournament mode, this sequel feels like a more purposeful and satisfying chapter in the franchise. If you know what you're getting into here, you'll likely have a good time and, surprisingly enough, I'm actually pretty curious to see where things go from here. Warner Bros.' 4K and Blu-ray offer great A/V presentations and, though the extras aren't very impressive, established fans should add this one to their kollections. This Walmart exclusive ups the ante with both formats in a limited edition Steelbook, which makes it a no-brainer for die-hard fans.
