Mortal Kombat 1 Fatality List – All Fatalities and How to do Them

In Mortal Kombat, Fatalities are special moves that you can perform when the “Finish Him/Her” prompt appears on the screen at the end of a fight. All MK1 Fatalities have with unique execution requirements. Here’s the Mortal Kombat 1 Fatality list and how to perform them.

How to perform Fatality in Mortal Kombat 1

To perform a Fatality in Mortal Kombat 1, you’ll need to input a specific combination of buttons at the right distance from your opponent. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to execute Fatalities in Mortal Kombat 1:

• Start a match.
• During the final round, reduce your opponent’s health bar until it is fully depleted.
• When you get the “Finish Him” or “Finish Her” signal on the screen, you can perform your Fatality.
• Input the specific button combination for the desired Fatality.

How to unlock Fatalities in Mortal Kombat 1

In Mortal Kombat 1, each character initially has one Fatality unlocked. However, to unlock their second Fatality, you’ll need to increase the Mastery level for each character. You can achieve this by playing various game modes, including Towers and Invasions. Note that Kameo fighters do not have a second Fatality, though.

Remember, you don’t need to unlock the second Fatality to perform it if you already know the correct inputs. Unlocking the Fatality simply allows you to access it in the Move List for reference.
