Every character has five Brutalities with two Universal Brutalities that can be performed regardless of the variation, while the remainders are exclusive to certain variations. To perform them, specific conditions must be followed during the entirety of a match, allowing players to kill the opponent when performing an attack, throw, combo or special attack. Brutalities would returned and were reworked in Mortal Kombat X, where they function as end of the match finishers that do not cause the Finish Him/Her title to appear. This finisher didn't appear in another game until Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks, in which it wasn't explicitly used as a finisher, but rather as a power-up. In some versions, the bone and flesh flies completely offscreen. Many felt the pay-off was lacking with the only result being a fiery explosion where the victim disappears and an unrealistic amount of bone and flesh are sent flying and covering most of the screen. Brutalities were not very popular, as they were extremely difficult to accomplish, requiring the player to memorize and perform a special 11-hit combo. Brutality - Introduced in Mortal Kombat Trilogy and the SNES and Sega Genesis ports of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, this finisher allowed players to perform a combo which would end in a uppercut, causing the opponent to explode.Due to this, the MK crew received complaints from the fans, so the crew added in MK4 a scorpion transformation as one of his Fatalities. In order to perform an Animality, the player must first grant his opponent Mercy, the act which revives the opponent in lieu of delivering a final blow or performing a Fatality by restoring a small amount of health: should the opponent be defeated again, an Animality may be performed. Also, since Sheeva turned into a scorpion for her Animality, Scorpion got a penguin transformation. That Fatality was turned into Liu Kang's Animality in UMK3. Some say the precursor to the Animality was Liu Kang's Dragon Fatality from Mortal Kombat II, in which he turned into a dragon and ate the upper half of his opponent. This style of Fatality debuted in Mortal Kombat 3. Animality - This finisher allows the player to morph into an animal and maul or eat their opponent alive.Then we thought, What if the player could do that to his opponent?" When we watched players react to the Fatalities, we knew we had no choice but to give them more." Other Finishers According to Tobias: "Our first idea was to use them as a finishing move for the final boss, Shang Tsung, who was going to pull out his sword and behead his opponent. The most notable additions were graphic blood effects, more brutal fighting techniques, and especially the fatal finishing moves (this was a novelty as the traditional fighting games ended with the loser simply knocked unconscious and the victor posing for the players).Īccording to Boon, "it started with an idea to enable the player to hit a dizzied opponent at the end of the match with a "free hit", and that idea "quickly evolved into something nasty". While creating Mortal Kombat, Ed Boon and John Tobias started with the idea of Street Fighter II-like system and retained many of its conventions, but tweaked others. In the movie, the word "Fatality" is actually said once by Shang Tsung.įatality-style finishing moves have also appeared in other fighting games from Midway ( Killer Instinct, War Gods, Bio F.R.E.A.K.S., Mace: The Dark Age), and other companies ( Blood Warrior, Tattoo Assassins, Way of the Warrior, Primal Rage, Samurai Shodown IV, Deadliest Warrior: The Game, Eternal Champions, Kasumi Ninja, Time Killers, BloodStorm), though they are not named as such usually. The number of Fatalities varies depending on the game while characters in Mortal Kombat and Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance had only one, Mortal Kombat 3 and its updates featured as many as four. Every character has their own special Fatality that must be performed at a certain distance from the opponent. For example, in Mortal Kombat 3, one of Sub-Zero's Fatalities requires that he stands close to the opponent and quickly execute Block, Block, Run, Block, Run. Unlike special moves, a Fatality may require certain distances and quick button sequences in order to achieve the desired result. If input correctly, the background will darken, followed by the desired result. When the announcer says "Finish Him", or "Finish Her" if the opponent is female, the player can choose to kill him or her through a fatality move.
