It is worth noting that not all of the aforementioned characters are new to the sequel. Among the staples in the franchise include the likes of Batman, Green Lantern and Superman as well as other lesser-known characters such as Blue Beetle and Firestorm.
"Injustice 2" is set to hit the shelves on Tuesday, May 16, on the console platform (PlayStation 4 and Xbox One). The game was first revealed at Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016, where its first-ever gameplay was showcased. It is expected to have a couple of promising features, one of which is the gear system that rewards players at the end of every match.
NetherRealm recently confirmed that in June, the highly anticipated DLCs will start rolling out. This is completely different from the way things were in the past. The game's very own creative director Ed Boon explained that they are looking to monetize the brand-new gear system for players who want to earn more loot quickly.
