Mortal Kombat 1 trophy guide - How to unlock all achievements

Mortal Kombat 1’s trophy completion could be incredibly simple, or infuriating — it all depends on your skill. The game has 51 trophies, with only one gold in the entire lot. Thankfully, many of the trophies do not seem to care where you perform fatalities, only that you do so. At least one trophy will require online play, but the vast majority can be unlocked against the CPU opponents or even your friends.

The trophies for Mortal Kombat 1 will have you traveling across the many game modes, from Invasion to the Towers, even all the way into the competitive Kombat League. That said, it does not appear you need to win that, only take part. Here’s what you need to know about the upcoming fighting game’s trophies.

All trophies in Mortal Kombat 1

While the majority of the trophies in Mortal Kombat 1 can be unlocked against NPCs or your friends, you’ll have to spend some time in the Kombat League. That is the game’s competitive scene, where you must play in 5 Kombat League sets. You don’t have to win, competing will suffice.

Other Mortal Kombat 1 trophies, such as Deadly Assassin will only be as difficult as you are skilled. Since you need to perform 20 Fatalities, knowing how to perform Fatalities, and being good enough to defeat opponents of any type in order to trigger them, will see you through success.

Here's a list of all the trophies in MK1:

If you want to achieve Platinum in this fighting game, you’ll need to put in some serious work. Playing just one mode is not enough and you’ll have to go into the Invasions, the arcade-style Towers, and view at least 10 of the various Mortal Kombat 1 endings.

Perhaps one of the harder trophies to unlock for Mortal Kombat 1 might be Total Disrespect. You have to perform a taunt completely, without being interrupted in an online match. It doesn’t require a random match at least, so you could ask a friend to battle you, and let you taunt. Whether they let you or not is another matter.
