About this sound

Content generated with AI assistance

The iconic Finish Him voice line from Mortal Kombat, shouted as a match ends and a fatality begins. Perfect for fight clips, memes and victory edits.

This is the deep, commanding announcer voice from Mortal Kombat shouting 'Finish Him' at the end of a fight, just before the winner can perform a fatality. The delivery is slow, heavy and dramatic, with a booming tone that makes the moment feel final and unstoppable. Even in a clip lasting just over a second, it instantly signals that someone has won and something brutal is about to happen. For viewers who grew up with the games, it triggers instant recognition and excitement, turning an ordinary knockout or comeback into a cinematic, high-stakes ending.

The phrase comes from Mortal Kombat, the fighting game series created by Midway and first released in arcades in 1992. At the end of a match, the announcer tells the winner to finish the defeated opponent, opening the chance for a fatality, the series signature gruesome finishing move. The line has returned in almost every Mortal Kombat game since, becoming one of gaming's most recognisable catchphrases. Clips of it spread through gameplay videos, streams and memes, where it is now used far beyond the games to mark any decisive win.

Pro Tip for Usage

Drop it right on the final hit or knockout frame, then cut immediately to the fatality, slow-motion replay or reaction shot. Pair it with a deep impact sound, but do not loop it or place it mid-fight, as that kills the finality.
