Many were surprised when the T-1000 was announced as a guest character for Mortal Kombat 1. Not because he isn’t a great fit for the title, but because the franchise has never welcomed two guest characters from the same IP before. After spending a little time with him, though, franchise fans will be glad that the developers chose to make an exception just this once.

Mortal Kombat 1: How to Perform Every Fatality (& What They Look Like)
A guide explaining how to perform every Fatality in Mortal Kombat 1 with videos showing what they look like in action and where players need to stand.
The T-1000 is a lot of fun to play as thanks to his stylish and varied move set. In particular, both the first and second T-1000 Fatalities are amazing, with each referencing multiple scenes from the second Terminator movie. The following guide has videos showcasing both of the T-1000’s Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities, as well as instructions on how to perform them.
How to Perform T-1000’s First Fatality in MK1 (Judgement Day)
Those hoping to perform the T-1000’s Judgement Day Fatality will need to press Down, Forward, Down, Front Kick (X on PlayStation, A on Xbox, or B on Switch) while standing at close range. Doing so will cause him to appear in a semi-truck and mow the other kombatant down. As they’re stuck to the front grill, he pushes out the front windshield, climbs out, and empties an entire magazine of MP5K rounds into their chest. The truck then crashes and explodes, but the T-1000 simply reforms before walking away completely unscathed. Just like the T-1000’s second Fatility, this one is a reference to the second Terminator movie, which, in addition to being subtitled Judgement Day, sees the T-1000 chase John’s dirtbike down in a stolen semi.
How to Perform T-1000’s Second Fatality in MK1
To perform the T-1000’s second Fatality, players will need to press Back, Forward, Back, Back Punch (Triangle on PlayStation, Y on Xbox, or X on Switch) while standing at close range. If done correctly, the T-1000 will take the form of his opponent, point one of his fingers at their forehead, and then impale them with it. After that, he reverts back to his normal appearance, stabs the other kombatant through the mouth, and slices vertically down their abdomen before pulling his blades lengthways to cleave them in half. Both parts of the T-1000’s second Fatality reference the character’s kills in Terminator 2, with the first being a guard at the psychiatric ward where Sarah is being held and the second being John’s adoptive father.
