“The tournament is over. The invasion begins.” Prepare for chaos and carnage in Mortal Kombat: Infection, set to ignite the screens in 2026. This R-rated action-fantasy sequel promises to deliver intense martial arts mayhem, pushing the boundaries of the franchise to new heights.

After surviving the brutal Mortal Kombat tournament, Earth’s champions believed they had secured a fragile peace. However, victory only delayed the inevitable. Outworld, driven by the relentless Shao Kahn, has abandoned all notions of honor. As portals rip open across the globe, the skies fracture, and cities burn, the war between realms spills into the streets, turning Earth into a battlefield.

At the forefront of this escalating chaos is Cole Young, portrayed by Lewis Tan. No longer just fighting to belong, he embraces his true legacy, stepping into a leadership role that can guide humanity through the impending storm. Joining him is the iconic Johnny Cage, played by Karl Urban, who brings a perfect blend of brutal charisma and savage humor. His lethal combat skills make him a formidable ally as they face the onslaught of Outworld’s forces.

The conflict intensifies with the return of Bi-Han, also known as Noob Saibot, brought to life by Joe Taslim. Resurrected from death, he emerges colder, faster, and consumed by a vengeful need for retribution against those who wronged him. Meanwhile, Scorpion, portrayed by Hiroyuki Sanada, stands at the epicenter of this clash, grappling with his own inner demons of wrath and redemption as hell itself begins to seep into reality.

Fatalities Unleashed: Expect to witness bone-crushing practical effects and iconic fatalities executed with unmatched precision and brutality.
