Brutalities make a return in Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath. This guide will help players perform them with every character. Mortal Kombat is one of gaming's most important fighting game series'. The title has gone on the sell millions of copies throughout its lifespan and defined what it meant to be a violent video game. The ESRB was strictly created with Mortal Kombat in mind when it released back on the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. The game continues to carry its reputation for being extremely violent and gory throughout the decades. To continue this trend, brutalities were reintroduced to Mortal Kombat 11 through its DLC and this guide will help players perform them with each character.

Brutalities are a bit different when compared to Fatalities of Friendship endings. The main difference is each Brutality needs to have a certain criterion fulfilled before it can be activated. Each character has something different about them that needs to be completed before performing a Brutality. The Aftermath DLC introduced new characters into the roster, brand new stage fatalities, a new story mode to play through, and much more minor details like skins and cosmetics. Here's how players can use each Brutality with each character.

Here is every Brutality in the game. Inputs will be described using the PS4 version for inputs. The button locations are the same though. Triangle is the topmost button on the PS4 controller. Although, each character can perform "The Klassic", which is done by inputting Down + Triangle as the final hit of the round must be from an uppercut. This will not work in the final round if the player is blocking. Here's how to do all of the character-specific ones.

Each of these moves is incredibly cinematic and challenging to pull off in Kombat. In a real match, players will need to be extremely careful to meet the requirements for their selected character. Also, players are rewarded with heavy damage for completing these. Not only to the enemy's health but also to their fighting spirit. Mortal Kombat has always been about making a spectacle of your enemy. The game continues to do that with this new DLC. Hopefully, the game receives new updates to continue to keep the game alive.
