Sub-Zero's famous "Spine Rip" Fatality reappears in the game but is completely censored, as the screen blacks out with only the "Fatality" text visible. Additionally, Shao Kahn gained a throw and grab-and-punch move, and Motaro gained a proper throw move. These special moves included MK1 Kano's Knife Spin move, MKII Kung Lao's Air Torpedo, Goro's Spinning Punch move, Raiden's Lightning that shoots from behind the opponent, and Baraka's Blade Spin move. Some were simple edits of existing moves (such as Stryker throwing two grenades instead of one), while others were unused animations never implemented in their intended previous games. Many characters gained additional special moves. Once the bar is filled, it grants the character fast movement and greater attack damage for a short period of time.

But new leaks, should they prove accurate, indicate the next entry in the long-running series may not amount to what MK faithful hope to see. Not too long thereafter, Warner Media job listings possibly hinting at MK12 were posted online, providing further credence to the ongoing rumors and speculation. In August, VentureBeat journalist Jeff Grubb mentioned the likelihood of the next Mortal Kombat installment arriving ahead of Injustice 3, given MK11's incredible success and uncertainty about the future of Warner Bros.' gaming division. While fans, and NetherRealm's production history, thus far, suggested Injustice 3 would officially enter development, rumors claim the Chicago-based group is actually hard at work on Mortal Kombat 12. Scant details were offered, though a post from Mortal Kombat's social media pages noted the studio had shifted focus to something new. The crew at developer NetherRealm Studios announced an end to MK11 support this past July, following two-plus years of post-launch support on the project. A new leak regarding Mortal Kombat 12 alleges the title will basically function as a MK11 re-release with a roster featuring fighters from MK9 and MKX.
