Injustice 2
Release: May 16th
Available: PS4, Xbox
The first Injustice was a pretty solid fighting game on a mechanical level, finally giving fans a proper DC Comics fighting game (even if the costumes were hideous.) Being able to punch the Joker into space as Superman is hard to top, but Injustice 2 is setting itself up to be a proper evolution of what was established. Newcomers including fan favorites Blue Beetle and Supergirl promises new challenges. Adding a loot drop system that lets players customize both the stats and appearances of fighters is an interesting deviation from formula, and I’m very interested to see how that’s balanced. Even better, the tie-in comic for Injustice, which is much better than the actual game’s narrative, will return as well and it’s been suggested that’s been used to inform Injustice 2’s story line.
