Headless Kabal
Select two player mode. Then, select your character as Kabal and have player two select any other character. When the Vs. screen appears put in the “Extended Fatality Time” Kombat Kode (155-155). Defeat your opponent with Kabal twice so you can finish him. This easier if your last hit on your opponent is a High Punch and you are as close as possible. After you hit your opponent, and Shao Kahn says “Finish Him!”, walk up to your wobbling opponent while still holding High Punch. Next, press Forward, Forward, Down, Forward and then release High Punch. For no apparent reason, Kabal’s head flies off of his body. Shao Khan then says, “Kabal wins. Fatality.”

Note: If your opponent is up against a wall after Kabal’s head flies off, and you try to do the upper cut, Kano will upper cut, but it will miss the opponent. If you do nothing after that and wait until the “Kabal Wins” screen, the game will think you did a fatality. Kabal will be standing there with his head off on the ground, your opponent still wobbling, and Kano standing in his “Kano Wins” screen stance after he wins a match with his arms curved like he is flexing.

Also, on any pit stage push your opponent all the way to the left or right of the screen so that you cannot move any farther. Now finish your opponent with a High Punch and allow the game to get to the “Finish Him!” screen. Hold High Punch and make Kabal’s head fly off like normal by doing his Animality without a Mercy. Immediately after that, press Low Punch, Block, Block, High Kick. Kano should appear and upper-cut the opponent into the pit.

Continuous Lightning Strike by Rain
Select Rain and execute a lightning strike during a match. When your opponent starts his or her way down, repeat the lightning strick. You should perform it again just as your opponent is a quarter of the way down the screen from the top.
