It's often said though that blindness can heighten some of the other senses. So too can an enchanted sword. This has been demonstrated by many blind video game characters over the years, including Kenshi Takahashi from the Mortal Kombat franchise. The rogue swordsman returns in Mortal Kombat 1, bringing with him some of his bloodiest and most brutal Fatalities to date.

Kenshi's first MK1 fatality is called Blended and can be performed by pressing forward, down, down, back punch at close range. It sees the swordsman use his telekinesis to hold his opponent in place and then ram his spinning sword straight down their throat. After lifting his opponent high up into the air and dangling them upside down, he then removes the sword and uses it to slice them in half. It's one of the more brutal MK1 fatalities and a stark reminder of what Kenshi is capable of.

To perform Kenshi's second Fatality in Mortal Kombat 1, players will need to press back, down, back, front punch while standing at medium range. Doing so will lead to Kenshi throwing his sword at his opponent and then using his telekinetic powers to slice off all of their limbs. Once he's through doing that, he impales their head from above, tearing it straight from its body when he calls the blade back to him. As limbs and innards fall to the ground, Kenshi celebrates with his chosen Kameo fighter.

Mortal Kombat 1 is available now on PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X|S.
