Dataminer Finds Hara-Kiri Animations in Mortal Kombat 1, Possible Quitalities Feature

A Mortal Kombat 1 dataminer has uncovered intriguing evidence suggesting the addition of Hara-Kiri Fatalities, potentially in the form of Quitalities, to the brutal fighting game. Redditor InfiniteNightZ shared a compelling video showcasing what appear to be Hara-Kiri Fatalities in Mortal Kombat 1. For those unfamiliar, Hara-Kiri finishers, first introduced in Mortal Kombat: Deception back in 2004, involve the defeated player executing a self-Fatality.

.reddit-embed-wrapper iframe { margin-left: 0 !important; }The discovery of Hara-Kiri animations for recently added DLC characters like Ghostface lends weight to the speculation that these will be incorporated into Mortal Kombat 1 in an upcoming update. "After seeing that they're adding it to the downloaded roster now, I think it's highly possible," InfiniteNightZ commented.

Furthermore, InfiniteNightZ suggested that these Hara-Kiri animations might be introduced as Quitalities, a type of quick-fire finisher that activates when a player quits a multiplayer match, which has been featured in previous Mortal Kombat titles. "They are listed as Quitalities, there's still hope," InfiniteNightZ noted regarding the animations.

Notably, another prominent Mortal Kombat 1 dataminer, Interloko, discovered additional Hara-Kiri animations following InfiniteNightZ's revelation.

Thanks @MatthewDim40523 for tag me
Here are another 2 missing from the video, so looks like only Omniman and Conan doesn't have one.

I didn't try to trigger it in the game because I'm bussy finishing some stuff of the demo of my own game https://t.co/TqBKyauY0G pic.twitter.com/hL4QzLRXwf

It's important to temper excitement with caution, as neither NetherRealm Studios nor Warner Bros. Games has officially announced the inclusion of Quitalities in Mortal Kombat 1.

Mortal Kombat 1 has recently seen a surge in popularity with the addition of a secret fight against Floyd, the pink ninja, sparking community efforts to uncover his unlock conditions. Additionally, fans have the T-1000 guest character to anticipate, with the potential for more DLC on the horizon, although NetherRealm has yet to confirm further additions.
