In Mortal Kombat 1, a Quitality Is a Real Pain in the Neck
Mortal Kombat 1 held an online stress test over the weekend, and it didn’t take long for players to discover the return of the Quitality.
A Quitality is a finishing move introduced into the series with 2015’s Mortal Kombat X. They only occur during an online match when a player leaves before the end of the winning round (so, before Mortal Kombat’s famous Finish Him / Her prompt). In Mortal Kombat X, a Quitality would see the offending player character’s head explode in a shower of gore. In Mortal Kombat 11, the quitter would either end up impaled on a giant rock spike or explode.
In Mortal Kombat 1, however, a Quitality comes with a twist... of the player’s neck. Rather than explode or fall on spikes, the offending character now breaks their own neck in a speedy and dramatic animation.
