Sub-Zero is one of the most iconic ninjas in the Mortal Kombat franchise, making his inclusion in Mortal Kombat 1 something of a given. As in previous games, his command over sub-zero temperatures and his ability to freeze other fighters play an important role in the character's move set, particularly when it comes to Sub-Zero's MK1 Fatalities.

They can be pretty graphic, but no less so than some of the other Fatalities that have graced the popular fighting game franchise over the years.

To perform Sub-Zero's first Fatality, players will need to press forward, down, down, back punch while at medium range. Once triggered, Sub-Zero will create a shard of ice that he hurls through his opponent's midriff. After a quick kick to spin his opponent around, the ice shard then loops back around like a boomerang, lodging itself into the other kombatant's forehead. As the shard falls onto the ground, they slide down it headfirst as Sub-Zero celebrates his victory with his Kameo fighter.

Sub-Zero's second Fatality can be performed by pressing forward, back, down, back kick while standing at close range. It sees Sub-Zero summon a large ice crystal behind the other fighter and then proceed to slam their head into it multiple times, causing their face to stick to the ice and peel off when he pulls their head back. He then freezes their head and slams it into the ice one final time, causing it to shatter into tiny little pieces.
Mortal Kombat 1 is available now on PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X|S.
