"Brutality!" audio teaser released by NetherRealm Studios

Babality used to be they just turn into babies and cry and that was it. Then MK9 changed it to they turn into babies, funny shit happens and then they cry.

I'd be lying if I said I wanna know how they changed Brutalities so it isn't just long ass combo causes dude/lady to explode into bones.

Just got a cool idea for Brutalities, that could fit with the audio tease. What if...

First, you input a short button sequence just like a fatality (maybe with a special condition during the match like Babalities, maybe not), this intiates "Brutality Mode" which darkens the background, has your character get closer to his opponent and changes the camera angle.

Then, the timing becomes really strict and you have to input the full 11-button combination to get the full brutality, an enraged beatdown (personalised for every character (ex:Scorp uses spear and fire)) with an incredibly gory finishing hit.

If at any point in your button combination you input the wrong command, the Brutality will end at the number of hits you got right with a violent finisher, but one that's much less "final" than the complete one.

That way, pretty much anybody can "input" a Brutality, but only the best players can get the full finisher. I would personally be for implementing a special condition like, for example, bringing back Mercy from UMK3 (even though they weren't tied to Brutalities before).

Imagine, you beat your opponent in a great 3 round match. Then you give him more health. You beat him again. You completely destroy his face with a full brutality. Wouldn't that be incredibly rewarding?

All the hate based on pure sound??? Lol just wait for the stream, like someone said I'm predicting an extended xray type of finisher when it comes to brutalities, really putting an emphasis on the damage being done to internal organs and bones being shattered & broken...the more I listen to the clip the more brutal is sounds (no pun intended)

I always wanted the new Brutalities to be from a first-person point of view.

Could be cool/sadistic as fuck.

I heard a new char is being reveled tomorrow as well. Any truth to this?

I think Mileena might be revealed, based on one of the guys saying "We get to play our characters next time" on the last stream, and his main is Mileena.

Also, This tweet by Shaun Himmerick seems to suggest a character reveal in the next 3 days.

I wouldn't be surprised if they open the stream with a Mileena trailer like they did with Ermac.

What's with all the hate about it being "too short" or "not long enough"?

Personally I am super excited that Brutalities are even coming back.

Regardless if its a 6-hit finisher, or a 15-hit combo (like MKT), I am super stoked!

And you all should be too!

im realizing a lot of ppl on here don't have imaginations, they hear 6 hits and its "OMG this is going to suck i don't hear the 15 hit combo, the stream is going to suck" (which it could be garbage but idk i haven't seen it
) but if it does suck every1 here will be calling NRS like

Extended X-rays are probably the best way to bring something as bland as Brutatlities back.

Just curious to see what kind of conditions you need to execute them.

That, and I'm still not really sure why this needed to be a stream.
A montage of a few sprinkled into a trailer would have been fine.
Finishers are something that would be ok to let the players discover themselves on release day.
