  • 18/01/2017

An epic new trailer for Injustice 2 has been released, teasing the upcoming DC Comics action game's story and revealing Darkseid as a playable character.

Superman, Batman, Supergirl, Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn, Lois Lane, Poison Ivy, Bane, Robin, Joker, Deadshot, Brainiac, Aquaman, Atrocitus and Gorilla Grodd are just some of the characters set to be featured in the game.

Set for release in May, Injustice 2 precedes the DC ensemble film Justice League, which will hit cinemas in November.

The story of NetherRealm Studios' sequel to 2013's Injustice: Gods Among Us sees Batman and his allies working 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. It looks like Brainiac wants to eliminate superpowered individuals on Earth before he comes to take over, and is launching a battle between them by taking control of Supergirl.

Injustice 2 releases in New Zealand on May 17 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
