A Mortal Kombat 1 fan has discovered animations for a discarded Brutality move featuring DLC character Omni-Man using his moustache to kill opponents. The move, which involves Omni-Man ripping off his moustache and using it as a weapon, was found by a modder and dataminer.

Data-miners have discovered hidden moves and a Brutality for Omni-Man, the first DLC character in Mortal Kombat 1. These unused moves, called "KameoKill," would allow Omni-Man to use his own Kameo assist as a human shield and projectile, but disable the assist for the rest of the match. The discovery also includes a hidden Brutality called "Mustache." It is unclear if these moves were cut during development or planned for future updates.

Despite disappointment, plans are now underway to feature Fletcher in Kombat Pack 2, along with a cameo appearance by Miles Teller's Andrew Neiman.
