Were getting closer and closer to the release of Injustice 2, and NetherRealm Studios is sharing more and more of what to expect from the upcoming fighting game sequel. While weve been limited to a few character teasers these past few weeks, new story details have emerged thanks to the Shattered Alliances trailer shown off this week. Of course, the trailer does more than give us a hint of what Supermans been up to in the years since his imprisonment, it also hints at new characters and stages we might see this May. <\/p>\n
Obviously the trailer doesnt show everything thats happening in Injustice 2s narrative, as NetherRealm doesnt want to spoil the final game for anyone. Theres also at least a second video in this series planned, so were likely to learn more about why Superman is out of his prison, and how the Regime is still functioning after Kal was captured and detained at the end of the first game. We do get some nice introductory chatter though between a few of the characters, which hints at the alliances that have been forged in this alternate DCU. <\/p>\n
While he hasnt gotten a full trailer yet, Cyborg does make an brief appearance in this story trailer. Hes one of the returning characters from the Injustice, though he looks like he got a bit of a revamped look. Hes still clearly a Power User, though its hard to see what kind of abilities hell have. One thing we can see however is a hint of Apokolips during Cyborgs short screen time. I cant quite tell if its an actual stage or if it is part of Cyborgs Super, which somehow might open a portal to that world. With Darkseid appearing as a playable character it makes sense that Apokolips would be a fighting arena, but until we learn more its impossible to say in what way it will actually appear. <\/p>\n
In addition to the new trailer, the Injustice 2 pre-order page has updated to include more details about whats included with the Digital Deluxe and Ultimate editions of the game. Both will get you the core game, but the Digital Deluxe version also includes 3 DLC fighters and a premier skin for Supergirl that turns her into Power Girl, complete with new dialogue, look and more. The Ultimate edition comes with all the planned DLC fighters (which will be rolled out in the year following Injustice 2s release), and premier skins for Flash, Green Lantern (who we now know is in the game, and Supergirl. The Flash skin will turn him into Reverse Flash, Green Lanterns turns him into John Stewart (meaning Hal will be the primary version), and Supergirl is again Power Girl. <\/p>\n
On top of all that (yes, there is somehow even more), new key art for Injustice 2 was revealed, showing Superman battling a number of characters like Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Blue Beetle and the Flash. If you look closely however, you can see that this is just one part of a larger piece. Gorilla Grodds arm is visible on the right side of the picture, hinting that hell be battling another bunch of characters on the next portion. Just how many pieces there are to this visual remains to be seen, but hopefully NetherRealm releases a fully complete version rather than forcing us to try and match individual pieces up as they are released. <\/p>\n
Injustice 2 will be out on May 5 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
