Much like their robotic counterpart Sektor, Cyrax made their debut in Mortal Kombat 3. Both kombatants started life as male humans who were turned into cyborgs before being gender-swapped as part of the Khaos Reigns DLC expansion for Mortal Kombat 1.

Mortal Kombat 1: How to Perform Every Fatality (& What They Look Like)

A guide explaining how to perform every Fatality in Mortal Kombat 1 with videos showing what they look like in action and where players need to stand.

Cyrax's past as a Lin Kuei assassin still shines through though, as demonstrated by the character's deadly move set. Sadly, this isn't really evident when it comes to Cyrax's Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities, which arguably rank among the worst that the game has to offer.

The videos featured in this guide contain graphic scenes that have been rated 'Mature' by the ESRB. Viewer discretion is advised.

Players can perform Cyrax's Burst Your Bubble Fatality by pressing Down, Forward, Down, Back Kick (Circle on PlayStation, B on Xbox, or A on Switch) while standing at medium range. Doing so will result in Cyrax skating around her opponent and covering them with bombs. When the bombs explode, their body is opened up like some kind of roadkill, which Cyrax then destroys with a single kick.

Those hoping to perform Cyrax's second Fatality will need to press Back, Forward, Back, Back Punch (Triangle on PlayStation, Y on Xbox, or X on Switch) while standing at medium range. If done correctly, Cyrax will run towards the other kombatant and jump onto their head. After a quick swivel of her right leg, the other fighter's head flies clean off like a football. She then kicks the head back at the body that it once belonged to before landing on it, causing it to explode into a gooey mess.
