Injustice 2 brings super heroes and super villains back together in 2017

Following up on some legitimate looking pre-E3 leaks, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment have officially revealed Injustice 2.

Once again set in the DC Universe, the well-timed, super-powered fighting sequel looks and sounds pretty great so far. Infusing gear and character customization/personalization into the fighting experience, NeatherRealm is definitely looking to do something a little different than past releases.

As for characters, the roster looks to include Batman, Superman, Supergirl, The Flash, Aquaman, Atrocitus and Gorilla Grodd, among others.  More of the DC Comics lineup will surely be revealed at the E3 and beyond, but at least we have an official trailer to kick off the hype train.

Injustice 2 is scheduled for a 2017 release for the PS4 and Xbox One.

Injustice 2 – Announce Trailer:

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment today announced Injustice 2, the super-powered sequel to the hit game Injustice: Gods Among Us.  The newest game in development from the award-winning NetherRealm Studios features a massive roster of DC Super Heroes and Super-Villains and allows players to build and power up the ultimate version of their favorite DC characters.  Injustice 2 will be available for the PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system and Xbox One in 2017.

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

Interactive Entertainment.  ?NetherRealm Studios is offering fans an experience of customizing and battling with DC?s iconic characters in an entirely new way.?

Injustice 2 offers the latest DC fighting game experience that expands on the previous title?s larger-than-life showdowns.  Every battle defines you in a game where players personalize iconic DC characters with unique and powerful gear earned throughout the game.  For the first time gamers can take control of how their characters look, fight and develop across a variety of game modes.

Injustice 2 continues the epic cinematic story introduced in Injustice: Gods Among Us as Batman and his allies work towards putting the pieces of society back together while struggling against those who want to restore Superman?s regime.  In the midst of the chaos, a new threat appears that will put Earth?s existence at risk.  Players can play from the biggest DC roster ever offered in a fighting game, from classic fan favorites such as Batman, Superman, Supergirl and Aquaman, to astonishing new villains like Atrocitus and Gorilla Grodd.  Battles will take place across arenas that have evolved in scale and span across iconic locations such as Metropolis, Gotham City and Atlantis.

To celebrate the announcement of Injustice 2, fans who have downloaded the hugely successful Injustice: Gods Among Us mobile game can unlock the Injustice 2 versions of Superman and Aquaman through the in-game Challenge Modes.  Released in 2013 and developed from the ground up by NetherRealm Studios, the Injustice: Gods Among Us mobile game is available as a free download on the App Store and Google Play.
