How to Level your Profile Quickly in Mortal Kombat 1?

To level up your profile quickly in Mortal Kombat 1 and unlock more Kameo fighters, you can follow these steps to make the process more efficient:

Adjust Rounds to Win:

In Mortal Kombat 1, you need to play battles to level up. To speed up the process, go to the game’s settings from the Main Menu. Navigate to Gameplay and then Rounds to Win. Adjust the rounds to just one instead of the default two. This way, each match will be quicker.

Choose the Tower:

Some players suggest playing in the Tower as it offers a good number of battles. Even though Mortal Kombat 1 fights have two rounds by default, adjusting the rounds to one will make these battles faster.

Use Brutality to Finish:

When you defeat your opponent, try to finish them with a Brutality move. Doing this will earn you more experience points (exp) compared to a normal finish or a fatality. It's an efficient way to gain more exp and level up faster.
