A Mortal Kombat 1 dataminer has uncovered intriguing evidence suggesting the addition of Hara-Kiri Fatalities, potentially in the form of Quitalities. Redditor InfiniteNightZ shared a video showcasing what appear to be Hara-Kiri Fatalities in Mortal Kombat 1. First introduced in Mortal Kombat: Deception in 2004, a Hara-Kiri finisher allows the defeated player to perform a self-Fatality, ending their own character's life.

This suggests that these animations might be integrated into Mortal Kombat 1 in a future update. "After seeing that they're adding it to the downloaded roster now, I think it's highly possible," InfiniteNightZ stated.
InfiniteNightZ further speculated that these Hara-Kiri animations could be introduced as Quitalities, a type of quick-fire finisher that activates when a player quits a multiplayer match. These have been featured in previous Mortal Kombat games. "They are listed as Quitalities, there's still hope," InfiniteNightZ remarked about the animations.
Following InfiniteNightZ's revelation, another prominent Mortal Kombat 1 dataminer, Interloko, discovered additional Hara-Kiri animations.
Thanks @MatthewDim40523 for tag me Here are another 2 missing from the video, so looks like only Omniman and Conan doesn't have one.
I didn't try to trigger it in the game because I'm busy finishing some stuff of the demo of my own game https://t.co/TqBKyauY0G pic.twitter.com/hL4QzLRXwf

It's important to note, however, that neither NetherRealm Studios nor Warner Bros. Games has officially announced the inclusion of Quitalities in Mortal Kombat 1.
Mortal Kombat 1 has recently seen renewed interest with the introduction of a secret fight against Floyd, the pink ninja, and the community's efforts to unlock him. Fans also have the T-1000 guest character to anticipate, along with potential additional DLC, though NetherRealm has not yet confirmed these additions.
