A Mortal Kombat 1 dataminer has uncovered strong evidence suggesting the addition of Hara-Kiri Fatalities, rebranded as Quitalities, in a future update.
Redditor InfiniteNightZ shared a video showcasing what appear to be Hara-Kiri animations within the game's files. Hara-Kiri finishers, a self-inflicted fatality feature introduced in Mortal Kombat: Deception (2004), allow defeated players to enact their own demise. The discovery is particularly noteworthy as these animations include recently added DLC characters like Ghostface, bolstering the likelihood of their inclusion. InfiniteNightZ stated, "After seeing that they're adding it to the downloaded roster now, I think it's highly possible."
Further investigation reveals these animations are referenced in the game's code as "Quitalities," quick-fire finishers triggered by player disconnections in multiplayer matches, a familiar feature from previous Mortal Kombat titles. InfiniteNightZ expressed optimism, stating, "They are listed as Quitalities, there's still hope."
Independent verification came from prominent Mortal Kombat 1 dataminer Interloko, who discovered additional Hara-Kiri animations, confirming the findings. However, it's crucial to remember that neither NetherRealm Studios nor Warner Bros. Games has officially announced Quitalities for Mortal Kombat 1.
The Mortal Kombat 1 community recently focused on unlocking a secret fight featuring Floyd, the pink ninja. Anticipation also builds for the upcoming T-1000 guest character and the possibility of further DLC, though no official confirmation exists.
