Mortal Kombat 1 Ghostface Fatality Has Interesting Kenshi Detail

One of Ghostface’s fatalities in Mortal Kombat 1 has an interesting change when performed against Kenshi. Some would say that part of Mortal Kombat‘s notoriety comes from its unique Fatalities, and Mortal Kombat 1 is no exception. Fans look forward to each iteration and check how creative the development team is in terms of conjuring up new ways to finish off opponents. This is also true whenever characters are introduced in the game.

Mortal Kombat 1 has once again included new members of the roster for everyone’s enjoyment. It has become a series tradition to add guest characters from other big franchises not necessarily related to the story. The most recent addition to Mortal Kombat 1 was Scream’s Ghostface. While some would argue that the hooded killer doesn’t fit the whole vibe of the Mortal Kombat universe, Ghostface definitely follows in the footsteps that other horror icons have set in the long-running series. Creative moves and Fatalities have made Ghostface into a fan-favorite choice for many. However, it looks like the developers may have snuck in one neat change when using a certain finishing move against Kenshi.

As shown by YouTuber SauloZ, one of Mortal Kombat 1‘s Ghostface Fatalities has a unique visual when used against Kenshi. In the original Fatality, Ghostface stabs the opponent once, as another Ghostface appears behind the victim. The second killer stabs the combatant in the head, but not before doing a close-up of the victim’s eye. As Kenshi is a blindfolded character, the developers changed the eye visual to show a monochromatic visual of Ghostface, presumably from Kenshi’s perspective. This is a neat little detail that shows just how much the team has thought about keeping the game’s continuity.

The Developers Inserted A Few Easter Eggs for Ghostface Players

Fans have already raved about Ghostface’s Fatalities as many believe they are some of the most inventive, yet faithful recreations of movie references. The other Ghostface Fatality in Mortal Kombat 1 shows the character stabbing the opponent, before a camera zooms out to reveal that it was Johnny Cage playing the video game. Another Ghostface shows up to stab Johnny from behind, which is a cool meta Easter egg for those who have watched the Scream films.

It seems NetherRealm Studios has taken the time to carefully craft Ghostface’s appearance in Mortal Kombat 1. Fans have been finding neat little details and Easter eggs to discover, and the character hasn’t been out for more than a day for Khaos Reigns expansion owners. Some players have already discovered all the Ghostfaces’ identites in Mortal Kombat 1. MK1 players may want to keep their eyes open for more of these secrets.
