Mortal Kombat X has some pretty gory fatalities and truly are a gruesome sight. But did you ever think of how the team goes about making those sound effects? Its pretty funny cause the process is probably as gross as the fatalities themselves.
Mortal Kombat X developer NetherRealm held a live broadcast, “Kombatcast,” where they shared new information about the fighting game and took a trip behind the scenes.
The broadcast showcased some of the foley work, which is the process of recording sound effects, that went into the game. The video (its pretty long so start watching from the 19th minute) shows NetherRealm developers using green goo, a plunger, and some other tools to create the gross, goopy sounds you’ll hear during Fatalities. The developer also added that they destroy a lot of vegetables, fruits, and nuts with hammers to create other sound effects.
Here are two videos that showcase the making of the sounds and how they come out in the game
The Mortal Kombat X release date is April 14 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. The Xbox 360 andPlayStation 3 editions, however, have been delayed.
