Secret Mortal Kombat menus open decades after game release

The Mortal Kombat series became famous long before the advent of powerful graphics cards. The careful work of the founders of the game, the well-thought-out character of the heroes, the combo series and other fatalities - and Mortal Kombat became a star game, which even the “platinum” language does not turn, because it is already osmium, rhodium or even California. For the past couple of decades, the best fighters of all worlds have been fighting each other until complete victory.

One youTube user posted a video demonstrating the secret menus and various Mortal Kombat Arcade resources. To gain access to the menu, the player must perform a long sequence of clicks on the block buttons. Moreover, the input must be made quickly and accurately, so accurately that for many years of the game with the participation of millions of players no one accidentally performed this combination.

Here's how it all looks:



Secret menus are available for Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat 2, Mortal Kombat 3, and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. At the same time, it is really difficult to make them appear - you need to perform the sequence of actions very accurately. The combination of clicks is detailed here .

The menus themselves were used to diagnose arcade machines, and it was possible to change the initials in the rating, plus view the end of the character’s story. And in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 you can open hidden characters, plus see the fatality for everyone and get a secret Galaga clone.

As for the consoles, there seems to be no such menus here. But who knows, maybe a couple of secrets will soon be revealed here.
