The puny kid in the beginning and end of the commercial is NOT the voice of Mortal Kombat. Even the wiki says it is the second guy that screams the phrase. I also can't find out his name but I am pretty sure it is the black kid with the dreads that flashes on the screen for a second in a solo shot before the girl does. Although you don't get a good shot during the scream, you can tell he is black, has dread like hair and is wearing the same clothes (black horizontally striped shirt and brown leather jacket) as the kid from the solo shot. How does nobody know the name of one of the most famous voices in video game history?
That "puny kid" was the 1st voice I remember when I first watched this commercial. I felt a little dismayed that the 2nd voice (the deeper one) was the only one that ascended this commercial and deeper into the mythos. Wait, I take that back... The techno rhythm playing at the end of the segment I suspect became the inspiration for Techno Syndrome (the song usually assumed to be the Mortal Kombat theme). "Puny kid" needs a comeback.
The guy you are looking for is Maurice Engelen, who was a part of The Immortals, he shouted Mortal Kombat. And that kid shouting wasn't an inspiration for Techno Syndrome, because first version of MK Theme was called Hypnotic House, that was made for Sega CD commercial of MK1, which came first (go check it out, it's really good). It just so happens Techno Syndrome was chosen for the movie and is incorrecty refered as the original. But yes. Techno Syndrome is better. Also both version have 7" and 12" mixes, where 12 ones are extended.
I remember...being 10 years old before this launch happened. I remember grabbing a VHS tape and waiting for this commercial to come on again after being mesmerized by it, so I could tape it and rewatch it as many times as my little gamer heart pleases. Lol. I finally did catch it and recorded it. I remember I kept rewinding it so many times, my dad told me, "enough!" I'm sure hearing the "MORTAL KOMBAT!!" yell for the 15th time got old to my dad. Good, innocent times in the gaming world then.
omg I remember staring at the tv in a total daze. this was such a big part of my childhood. we went to the arcade and spent so much playing this game. wow the memories
As a 23 year old I wasn’t around when dis came out but I have seen this trailer before and after todays trailer for the new MK1 with Dave Bautista I had to come back and see this
Same here!!!! And with Liu Kang the Shaolin Dragon now a Earthrealm Fire God in the new Mortal Kombat era, things are gonna get EVEN MORE AWESOME SAUCE!!!!!👒🗡️🐉🎮😎👍
actually, if my sources aren lying, the commercial theme was popular track, played at many nightclubs at that time. Thus, it was noticed, and used. And when things comes up to MK movie in 1996, same team, that released initial track, rewoeked it so it will be fitting the movie. Thus, this mk ost has its story, and its popularity wasnt complete accident - it based on it initial succefully writen hit theme, approved by the time itself. So, reworked, it was destined to became a hit too.
Man I remember seeing this commercial for the first time and begging my mom to let me rent it from Blockbusters at some point after it came out. Me and my brothers were running through the streets screaming MORTAL KOMBATTTT! Good times. Life was stress free ugh! Lol
I was 7 and that was the last year I remember a blockbuster location being opened (at least nearby) and I’d get games to play on my Ps2. I was just old enough to remember, but not really, the phasing out of those consoles which I enjoyed more than games these days tbh 😂
I'm old enough to remember this commercial quite vividly. What a time that was. I was 13 years old and saw that ad all over TV and on the backs of all the comic books from that era.
That’s what I’m doing by the time Mortal Kombat 1 (2023) comes out this September and I’ll raise my fists in the air screaming “Mortal Fucking Kombat!!”
That scream 0:14 , stayed forever and became legendary.
+Goku Son That doesn't matter...what matters is...that this guy...will stay forever!
+maforo85 MORTAL KOMBAT!!!
Just don't mess with those guys from the temple of light..
I FOUND EASTER EGGS IN THIS COMMERCIAL ua-cam.com/video/mc_AJk50QH8/v-deo.html
*"MORTAL KOMBAT!!!"*
CyanBlue I remember that day standing in front of EB nervously waiting for those gates to roll up!
Its so awesome how the new MK1 commercial is a throwback to this
They have the kid in this trailer in the new one.
I was like 3 or 4 now I'm in the new era
@@Darth_Carlino0 chance it's the same kid. Dude's probably well into his 40s.
@@Darth_Carlinobro thats not the same kid😂
The 90s. Im 41. MY ERA MORTAL K🩸MBAT
You gotta admit, the teenager yelling Mortal Kombat was enough to give you chills. But when that signature scream yells back......shivers!
Well believe it or not, the teen and the signature voice are actually one in the same person. they just altered the pitch and tone of his voice.

Still gives me chills. If you were a arcade gamer in the early 90s then you remember how huge this was.
"F A T A L I T Y" in that deep voice on the arcade machine, 'tis the end of an era my good Sir.
How about now with the new commercial?
I can never forget spending all my allowance on the arcades every Saturday
Still listening to this in 2023 🔥
This commercial is and will always will be a part of our history(Mortal Kombat)
And we all came back to THIS golden oldie after seeing the new Mortal Kombat commercial!!!!👒🗡️🐉🎮🥰👍
The fact they remade this commercial and did justice to it is legendary.
Yessir
this was one of the most popular games of all time. trust me kids, when this series first came out, the hype was a world wide phenomenon.
Agreed!
Midway Games from Chicago FTW
Tf PS3 took down this port from their store. And I deleted mine cos I didn't want my shithead landlord snooping it.
@kray kray I believe you sir
And that's putting it mildly.
I'm so proud to to be a 90s dude !

MORTAL KOMBAT 😁
Hahaha 😃 Thanks for sharing man! That epic scream is rooted forever in our minds and hearts, from kids to grown adults 😂
omg I remember staring at the tv in a total daze. this was such a big part of my childhood. we went to the arcade and spent so much playing this game. wow the memories
- one of the best things was seeing people do fatalities you'd never seen before because they weren't ruined already by UA-cam.

MOOOOOORTAL
KOMBAAAAAAT!!!!!!
Who else came here after the Mk1 trailer release today? Lol
They made the theme just based on the second scream and a small snippet of a beat near the end of this commercial. So cool.
Plus the majority of 2 Unlimited's "Twilight Zone" of course :P

Came here after looking at the Mortal Kombat 1 promo. Funny how time flies and the more things changed the more things stayed the same.
It’s 2023 and we got a callback to this, awesome!
Coming back here after the release of the new commercial for MK1!
0:14,The Most Memorable Noise Of The World
Gabriel Optimatium lmao!!
Gabriel Optimatium memorable noise of the MK franchise
Joe. The one at 0:14 was used in the song. I think that’s what he means.
I’m actually the voice of the guy who did that, I never thought I would be something that’s iconic… It was just a one take that I did..
2023 same energy
Who's here today after MK1 commercial 2023?
Didn’t realize the signature scream came from this
