Cassie Cage's Mortal Kombat X Fatality Is the Greatest Thing You'll Ever See

No hint of hyperbole

by Sammy Barker Tue 7th Apr 2015

This author's Twitter inbox may have been filled with vulgar messages when he dared to describe Mortal Kombat X as a bit silly, but few will be able to disagree when you see Cassie Cage's fatality. We're not going to delve into too much detail here for fear of spoilers, but this really is a must see. We know what's going to be our fighting game party piece from now on!

Warner Bros is busy taking down YouTube mirrors so we're going to have to link you to a Tumblr account that has the clip. Should you choose to actually watch it, though, the irony will smack you like an upper-cut to the chin. Don't forget to come back and type 'OMG' in the comments section below.

Have to say that the fatalities in MKX are over the top and awesome!

This entire game is spoiled for everyone by the time it arrives. I made a terrible mistake btw, I pre ordered the Coarse Edition and when I heard it doesn't include the Kombat Pack, which infuriates me, I went to check my order if this indeed was the case....and I saw I accidentally pre ordered the One version :S
I don't want to cancel because I can't find the Coarse edition no more, but since I know MK will support old fightsticks on PS4 only, I want to play on PS4. But besides from my personal 1st world problems I think it's a shame that almost no fatalities won't come as a surprise anymore. I know I shouldn't watch em, but I'm weak like that.

@Boerewors Just don't watch it. It's inevitable that people would want to share them - especially ones like this.

@get2sammyb if this isn't the best fatality I've ever seen, I don't know what is! Of course I've stayed away from a ton of MKX coverage because I feel Netherrealm has overshared a bit this time around, so I do have a whole lot to measure this up against. Lol

On a related note, is there any significant differences between the XBox One version vs the PS4? Like bundles, exclusives, graphics and whatnot?

Somebody needs to transpose Hillarys head on the winner and every other potential Presidential candidates head on the loser and title it - "Presidential Debates".

That was funny! The game looks great, and I will be sucked into this game for the better part of this year (when I won't be playing Witcher 3).

I really hope Freddy will be added to this by DLC...it will be nice to play Freddy Vs Jason. Can't wait for this though...seems like they went overboard on blood, gore and the fun that Mortal Kombat brought to it's fans. I still remember pre-ordering Mortal Kombat 2 for the sega genesis and forking over $60 for it. I still remember when the first came out and caused a big ruckus for it's gore...thus bringing the rating system into play...ahh, the fun memories of classic M-rated games...Conker's Bad Fur Day for N64 was still one of the great ones too!
