While this bloodthirsty fighter has several tricks up his shadowy sleeves, his most iconic fatality sees the wraith conjuring a shadow clone of himself and then teaming up with his creation to vertically rip his opponent in half like a human wishbone. Capable of manipulating darkness itself, Noob’s unique set of skills allowed developers to get creative when coming up with his supernatural fatalities (though he was originally relegated to merely imitating other fighters). The original Sub-Zero became a hell of a lot scarier when he came back from the dead as the secret fighter Noob Saibot. Noob Saibot – Make a Wish (Mortal Kombat 9) There’s a reason why this screaming kill has become a recurring staple in Sindel’s moveset!ĥ. While some fans adore her “Hair Spin” finisher, where she wields her hair like massive white tentacles and crushes her opponents to death, I’m partial to her “Skinned Alive” fatality, where the super-powered Queen screams so loudly that she literally removes the flesh from her enemy’s bones. Part of her popularity is due to her impressive finishing moves, with Sindel using a variety of supernatural abilities to destroy her enemies. Capable of enchanting her voice with destructive power, Sindel stood toe-to-toe against other fighters, soon becoming a fan favorite.
Some fans remember Sindel as a comical character due to Musetta Vander’s unique performance in 1997’s Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, but the Queen of Edenia was originally an intimidating addition to the MK3 roster. Now, onto our list of the most gruesome Mortal Kombat Fatalities!Ħ. With that out of the way, don’t forget to comment below with your own favorite Fatalities if you think we missed a particularly brutal one. Second, we’ll only feature Fatalities performed by the main Kast, so no kills by DLC characters like Jason Voorhees or the Predator, since those are mostly inspired by existing cinematic kills. First, we’ll only be including one Fatality per character. While this list is based on personal opinion, there are a couple of rules. On the other hand, these bloody spectacles were also responsible for crowds forming around arcade cabinets as gamers anxiously awaited for comically exaggerated executions, leading to increasingly absurd fatalities in the sequels.Īnd since there are so many bloody finishers to admire (not to mention the franchise celebrating its 30th anniversary ), we’ve come up with this list celebrating six of the most gruesome Fatalities in MK history! These elaborate finishing moves were so violent that they become a source of controversy during the 90s, with politicians claiming that the simulated murder of Mortal Kombat was contributing to the “ corruption of America’s youth”, with the game even becoming a catalyst for the creation of the ESRB. That being said, there’s no doubt in my mind that the gnarly Fatalities were what really motivated Mortal Kombat‘s massive success.
Mortal Kombat has always boasted in-depth fighting mechanics and impressive graphics (be it via painstakingly digitized actors or modern-day HD renders).
