     Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities list – how to unlock and perform

How do you unlock and perform Mortal Kombat 1 fatalities? In a rather annoying move, each character only has access to one of their fatalities by default. To get the rest of the MK1 fatalities, you'll need to go through one of the many game modes to unlock them, and then you need to equip them in the customize mode.

So yes, if you want to perform the most disgusting finishing moves in Mortal Kombat 1, you'll first need to explore the fighting game's Invasions Mode and achieve certain missions. When you get them, you can view them via the Mortal Kombat 1 gear system, or you can just read on to find out all the fatality codes as you don't actually need to unlock them to use them! If you're looking for all the Mortal Kombat 1 Brutalities, they're on a separate list, as there are so many of them to find. So here is how you unlock all Mortal Kombat 1 fatalities and the inputs to perform them.

     How long is Assassin's Creed Mirage?

How long is AC Mirage? Tower dive back into the Animus with Assassin's Creed Mirage and find out exactly how long it takes to navigate Basim's stripped-back stealth adventures in Baghdad. There's more to the master assassin players met 20 years later in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, providing a playground of blank history for developer Ubisoft Bordeaux.

Kicking things off as a petty 17-year-old street thief taken under the Eagle wing of the mysterious Master Assassin Roshan, Assassin's Creed Mirage has plenty of ground to cover. From the four districts of Baghdad to the legendary Assassin fortress of Alamut that started it all, the wealth of historical events alone promises a vast array of action-packed cloak-and-dagger moments as well as enough sneaking around to put this in contention for one of the best stealth games of 2023. While known as 'The Hidden Ones' at this point in time, the creed, assets, and resources are all very much intact. But before the AC Mirage release date rolls around, you may wonder how long Assassin's Creed Mirage is.

     Is Mortal Kombat 1 Steam Deck compatible?

Is Mortal Kombat 1 Steam Deck compatible? Playing Mortal Kombat 1 on the Steam Deck shouldn't be a brutal experience, as the latest entry to the iconic fighting game franchise by NetherRealm Studios has finally been rated by Valve. As it stands, Mortal Kombat 1 does miss out on receiving the highest commendation from Valve, but your fatalities will be good to go on the Steam Deck.

The Mortal Kombat 1 system requirements demand a toasty 100GB of storage space before you can start testing your might against the latest roster of fighters. We recommend picking up one of the best microSD cards for Steam Deck, especially if you own the 64GB version of the Valve handheld and need that precious extra space for game installs.

     Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities just got better with unofficial 60fps patch

Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities are already gorgeous, gruesome, and everything that we'd want from the new NetherRealm fighting game. But certain sequences in MK1, including Fatalities, are locked to 30fps. If you want to push the performance higher and make your finishers look the best possible, a new, unofficial Mortal Kombat 1 patch boosts the beat-'em-up to 60fps. Whether you're pulling heads off as Garas, blowing deadly kisses as Sonya Blade, as we approach the Mortal Kombat 1 release date, this is how you make Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities at 60fps a reality.

     The 30 best Starfield mods

What are the best Starfield mods? Mod support is an important part of many PC games, especially RPG games. Skyrim has endured all these years partly because it's a great game, partly because Bethesda keeps releasing it on hitherto unknown gaming platforms, but also because it's powered by a vibrant and creative modding community.

Thankfully, Starfield mod support has technically been available since before the Starfield release date rolled around thanks to early access. If you're playing Starfield Game Pass, you may experience some difficulty installing all of the mods we've listed below. For maximum compatibility, you're going to want the Steam version of the game.

     Mortal Kombat 1 tier list – best characters

Who is on the Mortal Kombat 1 tier list? As willing participants of the Mortal Kombat reboot wade into the guts and gore of the ironic fighting game, it's important to know which fighters stand out as the best. To answer that question, we've devised our own MK1 tier list to see how these fighters performed against each other.

We need to spend more time with some MK1 characters like Havik and the unlockable MK1 kameo characters to assess how good they truly are. We'll have a better idea of their placement after the MK1 release date. For now, here's our Mortal Kombat 1 tier list to determine who the best fighters are.

We've been playing with all the Starfield guns we can get our hands on, and while the base arsenal is entertaining, the real fun comes with customizing your own weapons. You can even give these customized beasts to your Starfield companions to defend themselves against the Starfield Crimson Fleet and all the weird and wonderful beasts the galaxy contains. The best Starfield weapon mods can only be unlocked by completing Starfield research projects - and that's only the beginning. You also need to collect the necessary Starfield materials in order to craft them.

     Lies of P dev adds Denuvo four days before launch

Denuvo Anti-Tamper has been added to Lies of P, the new soulslike from Neowiz, four days before the game's full launch. The Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring-inspired RPG game is shaping up to be one of the best variations on the FromSoftware formula in a long time, with our own Lies of P review rating it as a superb dark fantasy. With the Lies of P release date now upon us, the game's Steam page is updated to state it uses Denuvo, which is designed to prevent users from accessing and altering parts of a game's source code, and to stop piracy. Lies of P is one of many recent games to incorporate Denuvo.

     Best CS2 crosshair codes

What are the best CS2 crosshairs? Choosing the perfect crosshair to suit your playstyle is no easy task. If you pick a large crosshair, you could end up blocking potential targets from your sightline. Too small and you might not be able to hit your targets from a distance.

The main thing to remember is that you're going to want to spend some time testing out each type of crosshair. Fortunately, Deathmatch has been revamped in Counter-Strike 2 to give you another batch of targets to gun down. Picking the best crosshair and using the best CS2 binds should help you on your quest to earn the highest CS2 ranks and rating. Here's what you need to know about crosshairs in CS2.

     Marathon release date speculation, trailer, and gameplay

When is the Marathon release date? Marathon is a forthcoming first-person shooter from Bungie, the team behind hit games like Destiny 2 and the original Halo. A recent trailer and vidoc gave us the scoop on what players could expect from the game, which was rumored to be in development for quite some time before Bungie's actual announcement in May.

And, while the Marathon release date is still quite a ways away, the hype is real, given Bungie's history of delivering great experiences and the stunning trailer that re-introduced gamers to the remake of the FPS game, which remains a classic.

     What is the current and next Genshin Impact banner?

Genshin Impact banners rotate every few weeks on a precise schedule, and we always know what to expect thanks to regular updates from Hoyoverse. The developer of the anime game always keeps its fans in the loop with regular Twitter posts and livestreams, so you can plan where you want to spend your hard-earned Primogems.

With a two to three-week turnaround for banners, the roster of Genshin Impact characters is always changing, and the free PC game regularly introduces two new characters to wish for. Every limited-time character banner - or Event Wish - contains a five-star character, and three four-star characters with increased drop rates. There's also a Genshin Impact Weapon banner - Epitome Invocation - which runs alongside each character banner and changes weapons every update.

     All Starfield research projects and what they do

What are Starfield research projects? Spread across five distinct categories, laboratory research projects are another reason why you'll want to stuff your ship full of trinkets, materials, and minerals as you journey across the stars. You're free to fly the cosmos without hitting the books, but you'll be holding yourself back.

The more you tinker with all that good stuff during your Starfield crafting sessions, the more powerful Starfield guns you'll be able to piece together. You'll also have plenty of room to improve the restoratives you craft at other stations. All in all, taking a peek under the microscope can help perfect your preferred Starfield build. You'll just have to navigate the dozens upon dozens of Starfield planets out there to find what you need.

I continue to have astrophysics on the brain, and over the weekend, managed to spend an hour in Void Crew from Hutlihut Games and Focus Home. It's part of the surprisingly prosperous genre of "team up to complete some big unwieldy task with multiple moving parts" games, and while it hasn't yet hit the highs of Overcooked or reached the terrible depths of Barotrauma, I think the recently launched Early Access build might be worth your time. Amongst other things, it's trying for a curious blend of jolly party game and macabre theocracy work simulator. And it does have some rather swanky-looking ships.

Over the weekend, Starfield players began to share reports of a strange paranormal infestation. There are asteroids in the game that, for reasons known only to gods and/or programmers, follow you from orbit to orbit, flying eerily in formation with your ship, and sometimes even accompanying you to a planet's surface. "In one of my weirdest Bethesda glitch experiences, I've got a tiny asteroid that's been following me for the past 30 hours," user ReverendRoo posted on Reddit, triggering an avalanche of comments reminiscent of UFO chasers spotting each other at a NASA open day. "I would catch a glimpse of it from time to time," wrote fattfett. "I tried to approach it but you can't. It stays away. I assumed it had a deeper meaning [toward] the endgame." Some players, like Blackdius, have multiple asteroids in tow. It seems impossible to blow them up. I've dug up a Youtube video below of one such clingy space boulder from a couple of weeks back. As you can see, it's not just a fixed background point like a screen artefact, but seems to move in response to the player's ship. Most peculiar.

     Lies Of P Monster Battle DemoEarlier this summer, players intrigued by the upcoming Dark Souls-inspired Pinnochio game Lies of P had the chance to try a free demo in anticipation of the full release. Since then, however, the demo has been delisted. Of course, those who already downloaded the demo still have access to it, so they can still test out the game as much as they like before it releases in full. If you played the demo and had a difficult time with it, though, you might hope that the final game will carry over any hard-earned progress you made. But does the game actually do this? Related: Lies of P review – A puppet's playground Is your save data from the demo transferable? Somewhat disappointingly, Lies of P will not allow you to continue the adventure from where you left off in the demo, assuming you had the chance to play it.
