The Thanksgiving Finisher is the second seasonal fatality to make its way intoMortal Kombat 1and is most people’s pick for the game’s most disgusting fatality thus far. It was given away for free to those who purchasedthe Happy Halloween fatalityfollowing strong backlash from the community and can also be purchased as part of the seasonal fatality bundle.
As with the previous seasonal fatality though, the game never really explains how to perform the Thanksgiving fatality, leaving many players to wonder what the button inputs might be. It doesn’t help thatplayers will also need to equip the finisher before they can use it, which will likely confuse one or twoMortal Kombat 1players.

Assuming they took the time to equip it beforehand,players will be able to perform the Thanksgiving fatality by holding the block button and then pressing down twicewhile standing at close range. If done correctly, the player’s combatant will break their opponent’s jaw on the edge of a table and then proceed toshove an entire Thanksgiving dinner down their throat; turkey and all. They’ll then jump onto their chest with both feet, causing their victim to projectile vomit and their head to explode. It’s definitely not one for the faint of heart or anyone who’s just finished eating a large meal.
