MK11 Friendships - How to Perform

Friendships are a new type of finisher in Mortal Kombat 11. You might remember them from previous games, but they were only added to MK11 in the Aftermath DLC. Lots of characters have them, and they’re a warm and fuzzy alternative to all the eye-ripping and spine-snapping we’re used to. If you’re wondering how exactly you’re supposed to make them work, this guide will show you how to perform friendships in Mortal Kombat 11, and give you a list of the ones we’ve seen.

You can check out the detailed instructions for every friendship in the move list, under finishers. If they’re not showing up, make sure you’ve downloaded the DLC, then go to Fatality training first.
