The film, directed by Simon Mc Quoid, sees Karl Urban's Johnny Cage join Lord Raiden and Sonya Blade against Emperor Shao Kahn to save Earthrealm. Grossing $128 million worldwide against an $80 million budget, its theatrical performance was underwhelming, leading to this early digital debut. It's available for purchase at $24.99 and rental at $19.99 on platforms like Apple TV and Prime Video. Warner Bros. aims for PVOD sales to help recoup production and marketing costs. Physical media releases, including 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD, follow on July 28, packed with five production featurettes.
