This guide will go over all the brutalities in Mortal Kombat X including:

  • Conditions — Requirements for being able to do the brutality.
  • Button Inputs — The buttons you need to press to perform it.
  • Krypt — Where to get each brutality. 

Notes:

  • 1 = Front Punch
  • 2 = Back Punch
  • 3 = Front Kick
  • 4 = Back Kick

There are coordinates after the area the chest is located in the krypt. Just look at the bottom left of your screen to see what area and the coordinates you are at when in the krypt.

Some chests also only appear at certain times. The bottom left also shows the internal clock of the krypt, I’ll put times for those that require it.
