Mortal Kombat 1 is a bloody gore fest that allows players to experiment with different Fatalities and Brutalities. However, there is one more feature that you can use, called Quitality. Here is how it works in the game.

In addition to offering a great fighting game experience, Mortal Kombat has always been known for its excessive levels of gore. Fatalities and Brutalities, which are essentially the game’s finishers, account for a large portion of the game’s gore.

However, there is one more challenger to gore-induced finishers known as a Quitality and this one is also available in Mortal Kombat 1. This is a bit different compared to a Fatality or Brutality as a Quitality depends on how much you are able to make your opponent rage forcing them into drastic actions.

Here is a guide on how Quitality works in Mortal Kombat 1.

How to do a Mortal Kombat 1 Quitality

A Quitality is triggered during a Mortal Kombat 1 online multiplayer match when a player decides to ragequit in the middle of the fight.

You’ll know if it’s happening as the lights will go down and the player who has performed the ragequit will suddenly have their character commit suicide. Shortly after, a graphic and announcer voice will appear signifying the Quitality.

So, unlike Fatalities and Brutalities that require you to input specific button prompts, a Quitality is essentially a byproduct of another player’s actions.

Ragequitting has been around in gaming for years, but it’s quite common in online fighting games. If one player is clearly no match for their opponent and is on the receiving end of high-damage Kombos, then a ragequit is a likely outcome – hence the Quitality.
