Since the first game, the Fatality has been the signature move that has defined Mortal Kombat. Over the top, brutal and very satisfying to pull off. if you know the right inputs that is. This guide includes all Fatalities, Animality, and Kameo Fatalities in the game as well as the seasonal finishers in the premium shop.
Inputs explained
I will use abbreviations for movement inputs to keep things simple:
F - Forward
B - Behind
D - Downwards
U - Up
Each Fatality has to be performed from a certain distance away from your opponent.
The distance will be listed in parentheses after the button inputs:
Close - right next to the opponent.
Mid close - about 3 steps back.
Mid - about 5 steps back.
Far - as far as you can get in the short time you are given.
Any - can be performed anywhere, but Mid is recommended to avoid accidental hits.
Additionally, I will refer to the final inputs by their in game names rather than specific buttons, since players use different controllers and keybinds:
Front Punch - FP
Back Punch - BP
Front Kick - FK
Back Kick - BK
Block - BLK
Kameo Assist - KA
If you are unsure which button corresponds to which input, check the pause menu in game for your current control scheme.

Tips for Performing Fatalities
Distance matters, If you are too close or too far, the Fatality won't trigger. Practice the distances in Training Mode.
Input speed, you don't need to be lightning fast, but you do need to be accurate. Take your time.
Practice in Training, set the AI to not attack and practice each Fatality until you can do it consistently.
Check your button mapping, If youโre using a custom control setup, make sure you know which button is Front Punch, Back Punch, etc.
Seasonal Fatalities, premium content, so you will need to buy these with Dragon Krystals before you can use them.
