Exciting news has emerged for fans of the gory fighting game, *Mortal Kombat 1*, as a dataminer has uncovered evidence suggesting the return of Hara-Kiri Fatalities, potentially in the form of Quitalities. The discovery was shared by Redditor InfiniteNightZ, who posted a video showcasing what appear to be Hara-Kiri animations. These self-inflicted fatalities, first introduced in *Mortal Kombat: Deception* in 2004, allow the losing player to perform a dramatic self-Fatality.

The animations have been found for recently released DLC characters, such as Ghostface, which lends weight to the theory that they might be added to *Mortal Kombat 1* in an upcoming update. InfiniteNightZ expressed optimism about the inclusion, stating, "After seeing that they're adding it to the downloaded roster now, I think it's highly possible."
Furthermore, InfiniteNightZ noted that the animations are referenced as Quitalities within the game's code. Quitalities are quick animations that occur when a player quits a multiplayer match, a feature seen in previous games in the series. "They are listed as Quitalities, there's still hope," InfiniteNightZ remarked.
Following InfiniteNightZ's discovery, renowned *Mortal Kombat 1* dataminer Interloko confirmed the existence of additional Hara-Kiri animations, further supporting the likelihood of their inclusion in the game.

Here are another 2 missing from the video, so looks like only Omniman and Conan doesn't have one.I didn't try to trigger it in the game because I'm bussy finishing some stuff of the demo of my own game https://t.co/TqBKyauY0G pic.twitter.com/hL4QzLRXwf

It's important to note that neither NetherRealm Studios nor Warner Bros. Games has officially confirmed the addition of Quitalities to *Mortal Kombat 1*. Thus, while the evidence is compelling, fans should temper their excitement until an official announcement is made.
In other *Mortal Kombat 1* news, the game has seen a resurgence with the addition of a secret fight against Floyd, the pink ninja, sparking community efforts to uncover his unlock conditions. Additionally, fans have the T-1000 guest character to anticipate, with the possibility of more DLC on the horizon, though nothing has been confirmed by NetherRealm yet.
