What's new

"Brutality!" audio teaser released by NetherRealm Studios

You mean like in Armageddon? I doubt it, they're called Brutalities so that's what we'll get.
So you think it's going to be more of a canned finishing animation? I'm just questioning how a brutality would be any different from any normal fatality if it's not in some way custom.

Edit: Especially given the use of the word 'style', it's completely possible it could be user defined in some way.
And maybe not exactly like Armageddon but a custom variant of it. I couldn't say what though.

Most humble shit talker ever!!!
That brutality sounds like punch/stab to the stomach another shot or 2 then stomping on his head

there is a huge difference.... a fatality will be easy to do... But if someone does a Brutality on you they most likely completely destroyed you during the match.

SIRO FOR MK1
For everyone saying this was too short, dont you realize this was a 6 Hit combo for every letter of "BRUTAL"?

Most likely it gonna be longer if you want and they just did a 6 Hit combo to go synchro with spelling the word "BRUTAL".

you can kill anyone with a Fatality after u win but a Brutality will be much harder to do (many more buttons + a factor like possibly flawless victory or maybe not blocking like a bababilty) so Brutality is harder
Oh alright, I see now. That's kinda cool then.
 
sounds like it's not gonna be as corny as in umk3 with million heads and bones (corny in a good way, i loved mk3 but these brutalities won't work with the serious tone of mkx)

What do you mean by during the match? Correct me if I'm wrong but couldn't anyone do a brutality in UMK3 without meeting any requirements other than the difficult inputs?

No, but the brutalities will most likely replace the babalities, which you could only do after you didn't block the last round. So probably something similar to that.

Sound dissapointing. I expected to here a person getting beat up bad with 8 sound effects then the gore. Not 2!!!!!! Its probably be dissapointing like reptile varatianns but im hoping Iam wrong

I'm a little disappointed.... Too short.
Hopefully this will be something cool. Or would it be more punches.
If this is usual Fatality + X-Ray... I hope not.
 
I'm confused a little? are brutalities basically combos that are so brutal and intense that they literally get fuked up there and then during the end of a combo, or will brutalities be like fatalities where they get there own cinematic???

I dont get what the problem is. I feel like extended X-ray's with lasting results is a great idea. What made a Brutality brutal, was that you were viciously beaten to a pulp. What we hear here, is 7 vicious blows that lead to death.

Literally sounds like organs exploding, and blood and guts being barfed up. Sounded brutal to me.

Hold your disappointment please. It's just a 10 second sound bite.
