Are you looking for the Fatalities and Finishers in Mortal Kombat 1? Well, you’ve come to the right place, fighter! Here, we have a plethora of tables showing how to perform Fatalities. No matter which platform you’re playing on, you can find all the finisher lists, combos, and Fatalities here. PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC – all the Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities are in this guide!
Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities
Since Mortal Kombat 1 is available on multiple platforms, the inputs for finishing moves may vary between PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Switch. Additionally, if you’re playing on a PC with a connected controller, that’s perfectly fine.
To address these differences, this guide begins with a compiled table. It presents default input bindings that serve as the baseline for executing finishers. If you happen to customize your controls with different buttons or keys, it’s best to reference the character actions rather than specific keys for a seamless experience.
