Mortal Kombat and fatalities: name a more iconic duo. Apart from in that weird crossover with DC comics, gory, over-the-top finishing moves have always been a staple of the brutal franchise.
Fatalities in Mortal Kombat 11 are more brutal and beautiful than ever before, so we’re sure you’re dying to perform them.
Here’s how to execute Mortal Kombat 11’s finishing moves.
Performing a Fatality
To perform a fatality, you need to first beat your opponent. At the end of the final round, your opponent will enter a wavering state and the announcer will utter the immortal words: FINISH HIM.
Now, you need to input the button sequence for the specific fatality you want. You’ll also need to be at the correct distance from your foe. The three distances are Close (touching), Mid (about half a screen) and Far (a full screen). You’ll never guess where you can perform Anywhere fatalities from.
Once you’ve satisfied these two conditions, you’ll execute one of the two fatalities available to your character. For second fatalities, you’ll need to have unlocked them first.
The button combos given here are platform-free. There are four direction buttons involved in fatalities (Forward, Back, Down, Up), and four actions. The button for each action will depend on your platform.
The actions are:
FP: Front Punch
BP: Back Punch
