and describes all of the fatalities in MK4. This FAQ is
perfect for printing and taking with you to the arcade if
you've already got the moves memorized, but still need to
refer back to something to find the fatality movements. All
of the fatalities on this list have been confirmed to work,
so there should be no problem doing them. Everytime a fatality
is discovered, it will be listed here. Enjoy!
================================================================
II. KEY:
What each of the button sequences means.
Updated: January 22nd
================================================================
U = Up HP = High Punch HK = High Kick
F = Forward BLK = Block
D = Down LP = Low Punch LK = Low Kick
B = Back
RUN = Run
"," = then
"+" = and
"()" = Requirements for a move:
(distance, movements within movements, ect.)
DIFFICULTY KEY: ------------------------------------------------
* = An easy move to perform. Doesn't contain any "Back" or "Up"
motions, nor does it have any multiple simultaneous button
presses. The novices won't have problems with these moves.
** = These moves are still easy, but they often require a little
more skill, as they may require you to press "Block" during
the fatality, be it because of a "Back" motion, or "Up" motion.
*** = These fatalities take quite a bit of skill, and the novices will
have a hard time with them. Often times these fatalities have
multiple simultaneous button presses.
**** = These fatalities are the hardest in the game. They often require
you to press many buttons at one time, and require to use "Block"
during the fatality, as well. The novices, and sometimes even the
experts may have a hard time with these fatalities.
EXAMPLES: ------------------------------------------------------
* "B, D, F, HP (Sweep)" means to do the motion Back, Down,
Forward, then hit the button High Punch. This move must
be done at "Sweep Distance", or one foot sweep away from
your opponent. Other distances include but are not limited
to:
1) "Close"........... Make sure you're standing as close to the opponent
as possible.
2) "1 Step Away"..... Get as close to your opponent as possible,
then tap the joystick back once to get one
step away from him/her.
3) "Sweep"........... Sweep Distance, or 1 full foot sweep away from your
opponent. A good way to test this
is to make your last move a Breaker move (F+LK).
These moves will almost always put
you in the perfect position.
4) "Half Screen"..... Make sure that 1/2 of the screen is between you
and your opponent. "Just Outside Sweep" could also
be considered "Half Screen".
5) "Full Screen"..... Make sure that you and your opponent are as far away
from eachother as possible by backing up until the
screen doesn't scroll anymore.
- Also, please note, this is not a MK4 Moves FAQ. This FAQ just shows
fatalities for each of the characters in the game. If you want moves,
fatalities, character profiles, and more on MK4, refer to the site below:

IV. FATALITIES:
MK4 Fatalities sorted by character.
Updated: April 15th
================================================================
Fatalities were the original type of finishing moves.
They have changed the face of the genre forever. Originally,
Fatalities were "dark, evil, and violent" ways to kill an opponent
after winning the fight. MK4 returns to this style and features
extremely gory Fatalities like the original ones. In fact, many
of the original Fatals have been applied to MK4 in 3D while the
other Fatals in the game are all-new, but follow the same line of
violence.

skeleton hands come out of the portal. One hand goes to the left
side of the opponent, and the other goes to the right side. Then,

Stage Fatality. The camera zooms all the way out, and up towards

lets go of the victim, and they go flying straight for the

****************************************************************
1) Fatality #1: "The Face Chew"
Hold HP+HK+LP+LK (U)
DISTANCE FROM OPPONENT: Close.
DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY: ****
DESCRIPTION:
Reptile runs up and tackles his opponent, and wraps
his legs around the opponent's waist. He grabs the opponent's head
with both hands, and begins to viciously chew away all of the flesh
on his/her face. Blood shoots everywhere as the camera spins in a
full circle around Reptile. Then, Reptile lets go of his opponent
and backs away. The opponent stumbles back, and falls to the
ground. The camera zooms in, showing the characters face, now
nothing more than a bunch of blood and muscles attached to a
skull.
TIPS and/or SUGGESTIONS:
A) Try to end the final round of the match by doing a jump punch or
kick, then immediately hold HP, HK, LP, LK, and BLK down, get close
to them, and press UP. Be careful, however, not to kick them or
punch them when you hold down HP+HK+LP+LK.

DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY: **
DESCRIPTION:
Reptile stands just outside of sweep distance as the
camera shifts from its normal position to behind the dizzy
opponent. From behind the opponent, we see Reptile beginning to
levitate and float up into the air. Then, once he's made his way
up, he vomits a whole bunch of acid spit straight down in the
opponent's direction. The opponent screams in pain as the acid
begins to burn away his/her flesh. Soon, all that's left is a
bloody skeleton. Finally, Reptile comes back down to the ground,
and the camera zooms in on what's left of the opponent.
TIPS and/or SUGGESTIONS:
A) When this Fatality is performed on Scorpion, the game will
lock up and reset during the falling animation. You will
not get your game back if this happens, so you may not want
to perform this move on Scorpion.

closer to his opponent. Suddenly, he swipes the lasers across

Then, she twists her legs counterclockwise, turning the

them like his Fatality in MK2. Then, the camera zooms way out

- QUAN CHI
****************************************************************
1) Fatality #1: "The Leg Rip"
Hold LK for 5 Secs. (F, D, F) Release LK
DISTANCE FROM OPPONENT: Close.
DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY: ***
DESCRIPTION:
Quan Chi walks up to you, and grabs your leg. He lifts
it up to his waist, and puts his left foot against your waist for
balance. He then uses both hands to tug at your leg as hard as he
can, while you're stumbling around on one foot. After a few tugs,
the leg comes tearing off, with blood shooting out of your hip
and the decapitated leg. Quan Chi then takes a swing at you
with your leg, hitting you to the ground, still bleeding. He then
beats you with it repeatedly. Each time the opponent makes an
attempt to get up, he/she gets knocked back down by the leg.
Without a doubt this is one of the most demented and hilarious
fatalities in Mortal Kombat's history.

to hold LK, you may need to begin holding LK
toward the end of the final round.
