If you’re done with all the chapters in Street Fighter 6 or playing Tekken, you might want to try the Floyd secret fight in Mortal Kombat 1. Yes, the MK franchise has been a bit lackluster recently, but NetherRealm’s iconic fighting game is trending once again thanks to Pink Floyd of all people, and no we’re not talking about the British band but a pink ninja called Floyd. This secret fight in MK1 has fans excited again as it unlocks exclusive rewards.
But how do you find the Floyd secret fight in Mortal Kombat 1? How many times can you fight him? And what exactly do you do to unlock it? Let’s break it all down.
Activating The Floyd Secret Fight in Mortal Kombat 1

Activating a Floyd secret fight in Mortal Kombat 1 isn’t easy. It requires solving specific challenges, “klues,” and a bit of luck. Here’s what you need to know about this secret fight in MK1:
- Random Spawn: Floyd can randomly appear during ladder or versus matches. The more klues you solve, the higher your chances of encountering him.
- Floyd Notifications: Completing certain klues will trigger a guitar solo. These cool riffs are hints that you’re getting closer to finding him.
- Active Klues: Once Floyd appears on a stage, he’ll give you an active klue to solve during that match.
- Random Progression: The number of klues and hints needed to find Floyd varies for each player. Some players might find him after solving just two klues, while others may need to complete six or more.
- Guaranteed Spawn: If you play 400 ladder matches, Floyd is guaranteed to appear.
- Counter Resets: After Floyd appears and gives you a challenge, the notification counter resets.
Once you’ve solved enough klues and completed the challenges, Floyd will appear on the stage where the Kombat Pack 1 characters were first introduced.
