Mortal Kombat 11 carries on the series' tradition of giving players a wide range of violence to unleash against their opponents. To close a game in a particularly lethal way, there are not only the Fatalities - for which you can find our complete guide here - but also the so-called Brutality which can be performed in the very last stages of the match, just before it ends.
Unlike Fatalities, in Mortal Kombat 11 some Brutalities will be the same for all fighters while others will be different and will need some requirements to be performed. Again, Brutalities can be found in Kripta, but in reality they can be performed even without having "unlocked" them: to do this, you just need to know the relative key combination.
Refer to the following legend to associate the keys of your controller depending on whether you have the version of Mortal Kombat 11 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch.
- A: forward
- I: back
- G: down
- S: Its
- 1: front punch: square on PS4 - X on Xbox One - Y on Switch
- 2: rear punch: triangle on PS4 - Y on Xbox One - X on Switch
- 3: Front Kick: X on PS4 - A on Xbox One - B on Switch
- 4: rear kick: circle on PS4 - B on Xbox One - A on Switch
- 1 + 3: The respective backbone for launches also applies: L1 on PS4 - LB on Xbox One - L on Switch
IMPORTANT: a condition unique for all the Brutality of Mortal Kombat 11 is that the blow indicated to execute them must be the last of the match, the one that will take away the last portion of the opponent's health.
THE KLASSIC: every character in Mortal Kombat 11 has this Brutality, executable with the uppercut, that is D + 2 and holding 2. The condition to be met is never to block during the final round. But no more chatter: having made the necessary premises, it's time to delve into the Brutality of Mortal kombat 11.
