Strategy-Based ‘Mortal Kombat: Onslaught’ Now Available on Android and iOS [Trailer]
Almost a year to the day it was announced, NetherRealm and WB Games has launched Mortal Kombat: Onslaught for iOS and Android devices. For the first time in its history Mortal Kombat turns to fast-paced real-time strategy RPG battles of up to 10 characters.
The story is your typical Mortal Kombat fare. Only this time, in Mortal Kombat: Onslaught, you must build a team featuring your favorite Kombatants from Mortal Kombat‘s expansive history, and pit them against waves of foes. Assemble teams of four based on their unique fighting abilities, master kombat skills, like Kombos and Special Abilities, and create the strongest team, fighting your way through the game’s Story Mode.
Along the way, you’ll be collecting and leveling up iconic Fighters from Onslaught‘s massive roster, including veterans like Sub-Zero, Johnny Cage, Jade, Kitana, Jax, Sonya Blade, and more. You’ll also be summoning featured Fighters including rare fan-favorite variants of classic kombatants like Cyrax and Smoke.
Duel your way through the many chapters of RPG kombat, unlocking new champions along the way, and immersing yourself in the action-packed story of Shinnok’s bid for destruction. You’ll also earn a myriad of rewards and resources to increase your Fighters’ power, evolve kombat skills, and level up Gear. Onslaught also features Relics—powerful items pulled from Mortal Kombat lore—that you can equip on specific Fighters strategically and earn battle effect bonuses.
And if Story Mode isn’t enough, you can move over to the Boss Tower and Chasm Modes, or take your fighters to the Arena and challenge other players. Participating in player-versus-player Seasons will earn you special Arena rewards, not to mention having you climb the leaderboards to show everyone what you’re made of.
For those keen on following up on our mid-year best-of list for video games, iam8bit and Yacht Club Games are teaming up in a new collection for Mina the Hollower, which not only brings the game’s iconic soundtrack by Jake Kaufman and Yuzo Koshiro to vinyl, but also offers fans some cool merchandise.
Available for pre-order now at iam8bit, the Mina the Hollower Collection includes the soundtrack on 3xLP ($64.99), a notebook ($19.99) and a Keychain Blind Box ($14.99). Those fans looking to have it all can pick up the entire collection in a vinyl bundle with the Mina the Hollower: Bone Up Bundle Edition. All products are available for pre-order today through August 17, with plans to ship in Q4 2026.
The Mina the Hollower vinyl soundtrack is pressed on rich Velvet Purple Splatter Vinyl, and features retro-inspired zoetrope artwork designed by Nimit Malava. The soundtrack also comes with a pair of special 3D glasses that enhances the cover art, paying homage to the retro nostalgia of the old-school, chip-tastic tracks composed by Yacht Club Games’ Jake Kaufman and Yuzo Koshiro.
iam8bit also offers up a series of collectible keychains as part of a Blind Box set. Those who purchase will receive one of six randomized Mina designs rendered in high-quality, squishy PVC rubber, with a Secret Chase Rare in the mix for some lucky buyers. Keychains are available to purchase individually or bundled in a set of three, and purchasing the bundle guarantees three unique keychains.
Lastly, there’s the Mina the Hollower Notebook, a 240-page notebook that replicates Mina’s in-game journal and is brought to life in a forest green faux-leather, with beautiful gold embellishments on its cover.
As mentioned, for completionists, you can grab the entire collection in the Mina the Hollower: Bone Up Bundle Edition, ($89.99). The bundle comes with the soundtrack, one Keychain Blind Box and Notebook.
And if you haven’t jumped into Mina the Hollower, you can find the game on PC via Steam and GOG, PlayStation 5, the Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch 2.
