"Scoring Mortal Kombat has been a truly special creative experience. It is a world of immense scale, intensity, and mythology, but what inspired me most was the emotion and humanity that [director] Simon McQuoid and the entire filmmaking team brought to it beneath the spectacle," said composer Benjamin Wallfisch. "In creating this music, I wanted to honor the legacy of Mortal Kombat while bringing depth, feeling, and cinematic scope to its story. This album reflects the extraordinary work of so many brilliant musicians and collaborators, and I'm deeply grateful to all of them for helping bring it to life. I'm very proud to share this music, and I hope listeners enjoy experiencing it as its own journey."
