# How to unlock everything in Mortal Kombat 11 (MK11)

> MK11 has no official unlock-all: skins, gear and Fatalities come from the Krypt and Towers, while DLC fighters must be bought.

There is no official "unlock all" option or code in Mortal Kombat 11. Most skins, gear, Fatalities and Brutalities come from playing: the Krypt, the Towers of Time, Klassic Towers and the Story mode. DLC fighters such as Shao Kahn, Rambo, Robocop or Mileena are paid content — you need to buy them or own an edition that includes them, like MK11 Ultimate. Third-party "MK11 unlocker" tools are cheats: they break the game's terms of service and can get your account banned, so this guide covers only legitimate unlocks.

## Where unlocks come from

1. **Story mode.** Finishing chapters rewards Koins and unlocks some items and the base roster's story content.
2. **Klassic Towers.** Beating a tower with a fighter unlocks their ending and gives gear, skins and currency.
3. **Towers of Time.** Rotating challenge towers with modifiers; the main source of character-specific gear and skins.
4. **The Krypt.** A third-person area on Shang Tsung's island where you open chests with **Koins**, **Souls** and **Hearts**. It hides Fatalities, Brutalities, skins and consumables. Rewards are semi-random, so exploring fully takes many hours.
5. **Daily and weekly challenges** and online play give extra currency.

## Characters

- Almost the whole base roster is available from the start.
- **Frost** is the base-game fighter you must unlock through single-player play.
- **DLC fighters** (Kombat Pack 1, Kombat Pack 2, Aftermath) are sold individually or in bundles. **Shao Kahn** was a pre-order bonus and later became available for purchase.

## Skins and cosmetics

- Character skins drop from the Krypt and Towers of Time.
- The **Premium Shop** sells some skins for **Time Krystals**, the premium currency, which can be earned slowly in-game or bought.
- Seasonal rewards rotate, so some items appear only at certain times.

## Faster ways to unlock

- Equip Konsumables and use Assist characters (AI) to clear tough Towers of Time.
- Complete daily challenges and Klassic Towers with every fighter for steady Koins.
- Spend Hearts (earned from Fatalities and Brutalities) on the Krypt's heart chests, which hold rare items.

## FAQ

**How do I unlock all characters in MK11?**
There is nothing to grind for most of them: the base roster is playable from the start apart from Frost, and every DLC fighter is unlocked by buying it or an edition that includes it, such as MK11 Ultimate. This works the same on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox and PC.

**Can I unlock Shao Kahn for free?**
No. He is paid DLC unless your edition includes him.

**Is it possible to unlock Rambo in MK11?**
Rambo is part of Kombat Pack 2; you get him by buying the pack or the Ultimate edition, not by playing.

**How do I unlock character skins?**
Through the Krypt, Towers of Time, Klassic Towers and the Premium Shop.

**What do you unlock from the MK11 story and Aftermath?**
Finishing story chapters gives Koins and other rewards. The Aftermath story expansion is paid DLC; buying it adds its new story chapters, and its fighters (Fujin, Sheeva and RoboCop) are included, also sold individually or in bundles.
