TRMK reader,
ZoopSoul, who writes for
IGN Movies has an exclusive story about the
upcoming Mortal Kombat movie Blu-ray releases in the US. He has learned that both movies are being released on Blu-ray along side of the video games on
April 19th, 2011. An extra bonus is that these editions will contain exclusive codes to unlock a
Jade Klassic Costume in the
PlayStation 3 version of
Mortal Kombat (2011). Seems Xbox 360 owners are out of luck on this deal, likely because they can easily assume more than likely your Blu-ray player is a
PlayStation 3.
This US release seems to have a few more features than the
Barebones Canadian releases from last year as it's including a copy of
Mortal Kombat: The Journey Begins. Here is a rundown of the special features.
The releases will contain bonus materials and extra features, and will both be available for the MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price) of $19.98.
The Mortal Kombat Blu-ray will feature the following bonus materials:
-- Animated piece, Mortal Kombat: The Journey Begins
-- Theatrical Trailer
-- Digital Copy
-- HD Mortal Kombat Videogame Trailer
The Mortal Kombat: Annihilation Blu-ray will feature the following bonus materials:
-- Theatrical Trailer
-- Digital Copy
-- HD Mortal Kombat Videogame Trailer
Who will be picking these movies up as well on
"Toasty Tuesday"? Personally I'll be grabbing the first movie only, no need to relive the horror that
Mortal Kombat: Annihilation was again.
Update 2/3/2011: A reader just sent us a look at an ordering page ad for the movie release, that includes a small look at what may be Jade's classic outfit. This lists a "order by" date which is for retailers, so don't worry about missing out if you wait until release day. You can check it out the ad below:
