Looking for how to unlock all characters and Kameos in Mortal Kombat 1? Unlike other fighting games like Street Fighter 6, Netherrealm Studios is keen to keep the olden days of fighting games alive with some unlockable fighters and Kameos. As part of our Mortal Kombat 1 Guide we're going to explain how to unlock unlock all Characters and Kameos.

Mortal Kombat 1 introduces the Kameo system to the long-running fighting game franchise and it is not just a tacked-on gimmick. The title uses these assist fighters as an integral part of the gameplay, with certain characters completely changing how they play and how they approach a fight depending on who their partner is. Because of how important this system is, it is important to have access to every Kameo Fighter in the game to ensure that you are able to fully experiment with every combination that the game has to offer. There are a total of 15 Kameo Fighters in Mortal Kombat 1 but only 10 of them are available when you first play the game. You will need to unlock the remaining 5 Kameo Fighters, which consist of returning faces from the franchise’s past and even several playable characters dawning their Klassic attires. This guide will explain to players how to unlock the final 5 Kameo Fighters in Mortal Kombat 1.

With the game out now, the full Mortal Kombat 1 roster has been revealed and it includes 22 playable characters at launch with one more available as DLC.

The most disgusting and memorable part of any fight in is the brutal Fatality, a finishing move that all characters have, but some of these gore-soaked executions need to be unlocked. When you take down your opponent in this game, you have five short seconds to enter a complex input after hearing the announcer. While each fighter and Kameo comes with one finisher available, the rest must be found.

Mortal Kombat 1 marks the latest entry in the blood-soaked fighting series, and it looks to deliver a satisfying fresh dose of ultraviolence for longtime fans. In addition to a new tag-team mechanic that lets you pair a main character with a backup “Kameo” fighter, you can look forward to an epic all-new story, regular seasonal updates that will add new Invasion mode missions, and more.

There’s a diverse selection of characters in Mortal Kombat 1 that you can pit against each other to paint the floor red in blood. Sometimes though, doing this on your own can be tricky, which is why the series is introducing Kameo fighters for the very first time.

Six hours into my time with Mortal Kombat 1, I’ve barely scratched the surface — I haven’t battled against a human opponent yet, and I’ve only seen a fraction of its ambitious story mode. But it’s the new Invasions mode that’s stealing most of my time right now, and potentially making me miss my deadline for pre-launch impressions of NetherRealm’s new fighting game.
