Originally introduced in the console versions of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, a Brutality was a finishing move consisting of a very long combo that resulted in the opponent's body exploding. The concept was reintroduced and altered in Mortal Kombat X.
A feature in fighting games that sees the combatants say something unique to each other prior to the beginning of the fight. It has been popularlized by NetherRealm Studios' Mortal Kombat and Injustice games starting with MKX.
Fatalities are a means of ending a fighting game match by gruesomely murdering the loser. It was popularized as a finishing move performed at the end of a match in Mortal Kombat.
Finishing moves are typically moves that end a fight in a traditional fighting game.
Introduced in MK II, these new finishers would no longer kill or brutally beat down your opponent. Instead, your character would present them with a gesture of love and friendship, much to the announcer's disappointment.
"Hand to hand. It is the basis of all combat." -Gray Fox
