Mortal Kombat 1 Invasion Klues add an additional puzzle element to this single-player mode, which open up new paths to hidden chests if you can solve them. These Klues appear above the name of certain nodes you're stood at in the various Mesas, and their meaning isn't obvious to begin with – especially as the first one you encounter after completing Johnny Cage's mansion tutorial states ESDORYT TEH DWLOR which looks like gibberish! However, if you rearrange the letters to spell out DESTROY THE WORLD then use your knowledge of the game to realise this applies to Cyrax's devastating Kameo Finisher, then things become clearer. I've taken out the hard work by solving them for you, so here's how to use all of the Mortal Kombat 1 Klues to access that secret swag.

What are Mortal Kombat 1 Invasion Klues?

Mortal Kombat 1 Invasion Klues

(Image credit: Warner Bros.)

As you progress through each Mesa during Invasion mode, you'll find one or mode nodes with a Mortal Kombat 1 Klue attached, as highlighted in the screen above. This could be an anagram, a phrase, or some other hint that tells you what to do during that fight, in order to clear the attached path to a secret chest so you can claim a selection of Mortal Kombat 1 unlockables for your collection. This may involve performing certain actions during that match, or finishing it by executing one of the Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities belonging to a specific character.
