The devastating finishers that you can use on foes are what the Mortal Kombat series is known for, if there is anything. The deaths of Mortal Kombat 1 are no different, with tons of blood and guts covering every single arena you battle in.
Any character from Mortal Kombat 1 can be used, and they all have their own distinct way of doing these incredibly repulsive finishing moves. So, in anticipation of Mortal Kombat 1’s release and in the hopes that it will make our list of the top fighting games, here are all the takedowns that each character is capable of.
Mortal Kombat 1 fatalities
Here are the deaths from Mortal Kombat 1 that have been revealed thus far:
- Twin Dragon Beatdown Liu Kang
Liu Kang’s Twin Dragon Beatdown is the only fatality we’ve seen so far. In it, he summons two fire-breathing dragons from his hands, picks up his opponent, then leaps into the air and crashes down on their heads until he reaches the ground. Since the official name for this fatality is still pending, we gave it our own moniker because we felt it fit what we had seen thus far in the 2023 fighting game.
Liu Kang’s demise is depicted in the announcement trailer down below, but more character demises are probably on the way as we get closer to the game’s release.
