We’re still waiting on confirmation of a sequel to the recent live-action reboot, which is surely only a formality after the film was described as a “top asset” by one WarnerMedia executive, but Mortal Kombat fans are at least getting a follow up to the franchise’s last feature length animated adventure.
Jennifer Carpenter and Joel McHale have been confirmed to reprise their roles as Sonya Blade and Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms, which has clearly been in the works for some time given that the announcement was only made yesterday, but came burdened with the reveal that it was eying a late summer release date.
First installment Scorpion’s Revenge drew strong reviews from critics and fans, currently holding a strong 90% score on Rotten Tomatoes, while it generated millions of dollars in home video sales after hitting digital and physical media in April of last year. Naturally, the internet was stoked abut Battle of the Realms, as you can see from the reactions below.

This is just a guess but considering Mortal Kombat: Battle Of The Realms is coming out this summer with leaks suggesting AUGUST 31st, we should be getting a trailer this month or next month.

I’m SO happy that @matthewmercer is returning to voice STRYKER once again in Mortal Kombat: Battle of the Realms.
MK9 made Stryker cool and Matt Mercer was a big part of that. Really hope Stryker is done well in the movie. pic.twitter.com/teeAb2S8DW

Scorpion's Revenge is far and away the best Mortal Kombat movie. This sequel will crush.

On the topic of Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the realms, if Shinnok ain’t voiced by Knute Horwitz I don’t want him!

Director Ethan Spaulding and writer Jeremy Adams are also returning for Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms, which is expected to pick up right from where Scorpion’s Revenge left off, with Shao Kahn not best pleased that Shang Tsung was defeated in the titular tournament, leading to the franchise’s big bad planning a full-scale assault on Earthrealm as a countermeasure.
Warner Bros. have always delivered a steady stream of top tier animated content based on the studio’s most popular and recognizable properties, so it’s a smart move to strike while the iron is hot and Mortal Kombat is arguably more popular than it’s been for a long while thanks to the R-rated live-action movie.
