Mortal Kombat 1: All Kameo Fighters & How to Unlock Them

Some classic Mortal Kombat characters make a Kameo to help you fight.

There’s a diverse selection of characters in Mortal Kombat 1 that you can pit against each other to paint the floor red in blood. Sometimes, though, doing this on your own can be tricky, which is why the series is introducing Kameo fighters for the first time.
