Nether Realms Studio has officially revealed the first trailer to their upcoming DC-fighter Injustice 2 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Injustice 2 is the sequel to the 2013 release Injustice: God Among Us. The game features iconic characters across the DC-Comics universe and pits them together to fight to the death, or rather near death because no one really dies in comics.
Warner Bros write this about the game:
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.
Additionally, Ed Boon has posted to Twitter which of three characters they would like to see featured in the game:
