Since making his debut in the series' second installment, Kung Lao has appeared in pretty much every Mortal Kombat game. With this in mind, his inclusion in Mortal Kombat 1 should have come as a surprise to no one, nor should the fact that many of his moves in the game involve the use of his iconic bladed hat. This includes his end-of-fight finishers, which see the hat being used to slice and dice his enemies into pieces.
Kung Lao's Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities are far from the flashiest that the game has to offer, but they're still pretty brutal when all's said and done. Those who want to learn how to perform them will benefit from this guide, as it not only includes videos of all of Kung Lao's MK1 Fatalities, but also the button prompts needed to trigger them while playing on Switch, PlayStation, or Xbox.
The videos featured in this guide contain graphic scenes that have been rated 'Mature' by the ESRB. Viewer discretion is advised.

The first of Kung Lao's Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities is called Lao'd and Clear and is triggered by pressing back, forward, back, back kick while standing at medium range. It sees Kung Lao using his bladed hat to slice up the other fighter like a Thanksgiving Turkey, removing the head and loosening all four limbs. He then slices them straight down the middle, causing their remains to fall lifelessly to the ground.

Kung Lao's second MK1 Fatality can be triggered by pressing back, down, down, front kick while standing close to a dazed opponent. If done correctly, Kung Lao will throw his spinning hat high into the air and then pull the other kombatant over his back; snapping both of their arms in the process. The hat then comes down like a circular saw and slices them clean in half, allowing Kung Lao to slam the two pieces together before striking a celebratory pose with his Kameo fighter of choice.
Mortal Kombat 1 is available now on PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X|S.
