Kitana first appeared in Mortal Kombat II in 1993 as the Edenian princess and stepdaughter of Shao Kahn, known for her steel fans and blue outfit. Mortal Kombat 11, released in 2019 by NetherRealm Studios, brought her back as a playable fighter with new voice lines and battle cries recorded for matches. Clips of her scream were later ripped from gameplay and shared on soundboards and in edits, where fighting game fans reuse it as a recognisable shorthand for a female fighter in full combat.
About this sound
Kitana's sharp scream from Mortal Kombat 11, a short female battle cry used in gaming edits, fight scenes and reaction videos for dramatic impact.
This is Kitana's piercing scream from Mortal Kombat 11, a short, high-pitched battle cry that lasts just over two seconds. The voice starts loud and strained, with a raw, furious edge that fits a character launching a fan attack or taking a heavy hit. It cuts through music and fight noise instantly, so the moment feels more intense and painful. Viewers recognise it as pure combat panic and rage rather than fear, which makes it work both for serious fight scenes and for exaggerated, funny reactions when dropped over unrelated footage.
