The Mortal Kombat franchise is well known for its brutality and realistic images of violence. Yet not only the visuals in these games are unpleasant but the sounds as well.

See and hear the sound effects that make the players feel both fascination and disgust.

This video shows us the Mortal Kombat sound designers at work. Like in the foley recording for movies, it is lots of creativity and fun.

The video shows how the sounds of smashed vegetables and fruits then become the sounds of breaking bones, tearing flesh, vomiting or ripping the chest cavity open. See and hear the sound effects that make the players feel both fascination and disgust.
