25 years ago today in arcades, Ed Boon and John Tobias unleashed the "Kombat" into the world of video games with the release of "Mortal Kombat" - a fighting game originally envisioned as a Jean-Claude Van Damme game but evolved into a fantasy horror game that featured violence, martial arts, and the ability to kill your opponent with a "Fatality" finishing move. Competing against Capcom's Street Fighter II, MK went on to become a popular franchise on its own right by spawning its own set of sequels, spin-offs, and even a 1995 film adaptation directed by Paul W.S. Anderson and starring Robin Shou and Christopher Lambert.
25 Years of Mortal Kombat!
Given the series has reached a milestone since the days of the arcades and 90's console wars to the next generation of console gaming, Warner Bros. and NetherRealm Studios celebrate the occasion with a spectacular tribute video to 25 years of MK on a "Mortal Monday"!
