Injustice 2 confirmed by Warner Bros., NetherRealm

NetherRealm and Warner Bros. today confirmed what was once rumour: Injustice 2.

The DC fighter has indeed dropped the Gods Among Us subtitle. It’s been shown off in cinematic form below:

Batman and his allies will be trying to fix the world up after Superman basically tore it to shreds. Batman and company will be fighting those who wish to restore Superman to his seat of power.

New characters include Supergirl, Gorilla Grodd and Atrocitus. There also appears to be a greater emphasis on combat armour.

“For the first time gamers can take control of how their characters look, fight and develop across a variety of game modes,” Warner Bros.’ press release states.

“In Injustice 2, we are introducing new features that will change the way fans play fighting games,” said Ed Boon, Creative Director at NetherRealm Studios.  “We’re always interested in pushing the genre forward and allowing players to customise and level-up their favourite DC Super Heroes and Super-Villains is a significant leap.”

“Expanding the DC Universe in games continues to be one of our top priorities, and Injustice 2 showcases amazing gameplay and an original story to bring the characters to life for players,” said David Haddad, President, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.  “NetherRealm Studios is offering fans an experience of customising and battling with DC’s iconic characters in an entirely new way.”

Injustice 2 is excepted in 2017 on Windows PC, Xbox One and PS4.
