How to input MK1 fatalities
You might have noticed all MK1 fatality inputs above contain a combination of directional arrow and actions. This is because the acction button varies for keyboard and controller, so we’ve listed the default corresponding buttons for each here:
Front Punch: J (Keyboard), Square (PlayStation), X (Xbox) Back Punch: I (Keyboard), Triangle (PlayStation), Y (Xbox) Front Kick: K (Keyboard), Cross (PlayStation), A (Xbox) Back Kick: L (Keyboard), Circle (PlayStation), B (Xbox) Block: O (Keyboard), R1 (PlayStation), RB (Xbox) Kameo: ; (Keyboard), R2 (PlayStation), RT (Xbox)
The directional buttons assume that your character is facing to the right, so swap the directions if your character is facing left. There are also set distances that you need to stand in, which you can get a glossary of how far from your opponent you need to be below:
Close: at least one step back from your opponent to around three steps. Mid: at least three steps back from your opponent to six steps. Far: at least six steps back from your opponent.
Do you need to unlock Fatalities to perform them?
Actually, no, you don’t have to unlock the fatality to use it. While unlocking an MK1 fatality gives you the input in game, if you’ve obtained the input elsewhere (cough, cough), you can perform it regardless. When instructed by the announcer to “Finish Him/Her”, just enter the codes, and if you’re standing in the correct place, you’ll execute the fatality.
How to unlock MK1 Fatalities
In order to unlock the Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities in-game, you must level each individual character up to a specific Fighter Mastery level for that character. Doing so will then unlock that character’s second Fatality.
There are plenty of other things to uncover throughout the fighting game’s modes, so if you want to know how to unlock Havik in Mortal Kombat 1 or even get some of the missing Mortal Kombat 1 Kameo characters, we have the answers in the guides above. We also have the Mortal Kombat 1 system settings guide to help you see the gore in as high a resolution as possible.
