      Finalize your "fatality" with a "fatality finisher." "Fatality finishers" can be performed by pressing a directional combination and then a "circle" or "X" ("B" or "A" for Xbox) button. For instance, to finish your "fatality" by ripping out your opponent's spine press down, down, "circle" ("B" for Xbox players). To perform a weapon decapitation, maneuver your victim to their knees facing you and press up, down, up, "circle" ("B for Xbox players). To decapitate your opponent using their own arm press forward, forward, "X" ("A" for Xbox players). This can only be done after you perform the "starter" that rips your opponent's arm off.

Tips & Warnings

  • Your "fatality" can be chained up to 10 levels. Level 1 is a "Fatality. Level 2 is a "Deadly Fatality." Level 3 is a "Killer Fatality." Level 4 is a "Bloody Fatality." Level 5 is a "Mortal Fatality." Level 6 is a "Brutal Fatality." Level 7 is a "Evil Fatality." Level 8 is a "Vicious Fatality." Level 9 is a "Savage Fatality." Level 10 is an "Extreme Fatality." Reach these levels by stringing "fatality starters and transitions" and complete them with a "fatality finisher."

  • Each level is timed, and the time speeds up the greater the level. If you do not use a "fatality finisher" before time runs out, then your "fatality" will be incomplete.
