Injustice 2 Roster Discussion & Speculation Thread

Not feeling Subs injustice default gear, too similar to Scorpion's. (Which was the point surely) I hope he has a bunch of shit from previous games. Might be tempted then.

I riot if this isn't in the game:

Is there a chance they do a second set after the initial nine? I assumed that was out of the question

Boon said that NRS have plans to support Injustice 2 right though the launch of their next game. What form that support takes is another question, but given Mortal Kombat X had two Season Passes, I'd expect another for Injustice 2 if sales prove positive.
 
I'm thinking that the character on the right might be Katana, in the silhouette I can make out some sort of sword-shaped object? Could be me seeing things though. I'm glad Red Hood's in, but there's still a few characters I would have liked to see included, like Batwoman. Could Kate be a premium skin for Batman somewhere down the line perhaps? They might have to do something about the hitboxes, but I can dream.

I think MKX got a lot of DLC even after the release of MKXL. So unless they are moving all of their development to MK11, I don't see why they wouldn't.

Sweeeeeeet, and I'm expecting I2 to sell buckets so hopefully we get it!
 
Dislike the MK Characters being in the game. DC has an entire catalogue of great characters to choose from but now it looks as if we will get 3 MK characters :/

On a watchtower they mentioned there not being any female premiere skims for male characters. Apparently the hit boxes get screwed up. At last they said no to it at this time, so maybe they can figure it out. We got Black Manta, Starfire and Red Hood so I am satisfied. Now if only we could get Constantine and Spawn. That would put me over the moon.

Yeah. MK characters over DC characters in a DC fighting game. Drives me nuts.

It is what it is, however shitty I think it is.
 
Two Mortal Kombat DLC characters seems less like fan-service and more like laziness.

They'd probably require the least work to get into the game from MKX.
 

I think the character on the right of Black Manta might be another MK character. Look at where Sub-Zero and Raiden are positioned. Might be a coincidence, but given the absence of Spawn I think he might be sitting this one out and we'll be getting a season pass 2 with possibly three new guest characters. Maybe Spawn, Hellboy, Terminator or Buffy.
 
Oh shit. Get ready for ten Batman characters for the final roster.

What do you mean "get ready", we already have 10.

Batman
Robin
Joker
Harley
Catwoman
Poison Ivy
Bane
Scarecrow
Deadshot
Red Hood

And that's 11 if you count the Mr. Freeze premium skin.

It's possible that DC doesn't want comic book characters from other companies in their game. It's one thing for NRS to want Spawn, but both parties need to be on board.
 
He is. It's a bit unfair to classify him as one though, as he's a Suicide Squad representative.

Same with Harley.
I'd classify Harley Quinn as a Batman character, but I don't think Deadshot really qualifies anymore. Harley only recently joined the Suicide Squad, and she still appears in Batman/Gotham-related comics. Deadshot's been the leader of the Suicide Squad for 30 years. He's rarely appeared in Batman comics since then.

Sorry, I stopped counting the Batman characters after we hit seven, apparently.

I mean, get ready for 12/13 Batman characters.

By both parties you mean DC and NRS, right? Anyway, you could be right. I still think we might get Spawn down the line, and that they just haven't been able to agree in time.
 
Y'all already know what I'm about to say so include your own "too much batman" rant here.


Would've prefer terra over starfire, more varied of a moveset than Star. I'm hoping Raiden comes out in a trailer and static blasts him away.

It's certainly possible, although they seem quite happy to have various crossovers with IDW/Dark Horse/Boom Studios etc for comic stuff.
 
Wow, I'm pretty satisfied by the revealed DLC characters! I didn't think Sub-Zero would be in, but I await his gameplay breakdown.


A lot of silhouettes are hard to determine. There's a couple obvious ones(Raiden, Manta), and the rest are iffy. I do think the far right female looking silhouette is perhaps Cheshire--she'd work well with the gear system giving her different masks.
 
Person right of Black Manta is a dude, no way that's Batwoman. Look at the shoulders lol. Left silhouette on right side looks 100% like Azrael. Crazy how much of this roster is from Batman.
 
Have we seen much in the way of alternate costumes for Bane? I love the character but I'm not the biggest fan of the full body suits and stuff he seems to be wearing in a lot of the gameplay I've seen of him.

Secretly hoping for a Dark Knight Rises Bane since this his frame is significantly smaller in this game.
