Injustice 2 Roster Discussion & Speculation Thread

Well I really wonder what Superman is gonna get, because they already made him look like Henry Cavill.

Probably just the suit as gear pieces.
 
The mobile game also has "M" skins for Wonder Woman and Superman, which likely stands for "movie." There's also an "SS" (Suicide Squad) skin for Harley.

Nice. I wouldn't be opposed to these kinds of skins being exclusive to the mobile version, whereas the console version sees more Premier Skins akin to John Stewart and Power Girl.
 
For those curious as to whether or not we'll see cross promotion between Injustice 2 and other DC media projects:



We already have confirmation of
CW Flash
via the mobile game; there has also been speculation that Katie Cassidy did some motion capture for Injustice 2 if not another game. We now know the DCEU costumes aren't out of the question.

Cannot wait to wreck shit as Jason Momoa. Good God, man.

If I can't be him in real life this is the next best thing.

Er excuse me but one's free to play one is 100 dollars.

I want my man of steel costume in the console version.
 
If i buy the Ultimate Edition, will i get all future Premier Skins? It doesnt say anything about Season Pass, so i just assumed whoever buys this edition only gets the 3 they've revealed for it.

We're getting a new character reveal on the 23rd, according to the official site.

Quoting this because i feel like it got lost abit.
 
He is beastly. This needs to be a thing.
Twice the size of his bodyguards:

Also really good with an axe.

To each their own, but I'd rather see original characters as the focus of Premier Skins. Of course, I'd not complain if we saw Arrowverse and DCEU costumes in the console version, even as gear sets. Hell, I'd definitely use Jason Mamoa's Aquaman costume as Spinky already suggested.

Just the three announced Premier Skins: John Stewart, Power Girl and Reverse Flash. Additional Premier Skins will need to be purchased separately.
 
I don't know if alternate costumes mesh well with the gear system. I'm eager to see how NRS is going to make it work to ensure gear isn't overlooked in favour of "costumes". Turning alternate costumes into gear sets is probably the most ideal situation as it still maintains focus on the gear itself.

The only three examples of Premier Skins we have so far are new characters, with new dialogue and voices. I don't know if that's truly indicative of their approach, but I want it to continue on that path. Given the focus of Injustice 2 is on personalisation, it'd be counter-productive if everyone was using the same alternate costumes online. It's no longer "your" Batman, if you and one hundred other players look the same.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly what they are doing. If I recall correctly during that first watchtower stream one time they had Batman with the "Cowl of Beyond" and it was just the mask. So, I'm imagining all of those alternates will be broken into pieces to collect("Cape of the Red Son"/"Mask of Parallax"/etc. if I were to just guess a few.)
 
Welp time to get datamining in that mobile game.

EDIT: I see a Damian Wayne (Nightwing) folder here with 2 skins at least in there. There's Green Arrow in here as well.
 
So uh, Cyborg just did his new Super on me and it was sick as fuck.

Knocked me through a portal to what looked like Apokolips. Got wrecked by Parademons, went flying back to the stage and he cannon'd me in the face.

Hmmm, makes me wonder what Darkseid's will be. Sounds cool tho
 
For those curious about Cyborg's connection to Apokolips, this article provides an excellent summary. I was hoping NRS would use this connection to differentiate Cyborg from Blue Beetle.

Probably him punching the opponent hard into the sky or far away and then shooting Omega Beams which follows the opponent around and knock them back to Darkseid.

Cyborg sounds interesting. Sounds like teleportation will be a bigger part of his arsenal.
 
Yeah... that was 100% a Kyle Rayner thing... maybe Hal, Kyle, and John are gonna all three be pallet swaps. Even if Kyle is supposed to be dead in this universe theres a million ways to bring him back in comics lol.

I think it's supposed to be a reference to the Injustice comic, where Hals does it as a yellow lantern.

I mean its obviously a Kyle thing, but I wouldn't take it as them acknowledging Kyles existence.
 
There's no rule that says what certain GLs can make, Hal could do that.

It does feel more like Kyle, but it doesn't have to be.
 
Do we really need one?

It wouldn't be particularly active.
And it's not like this thread is a hot bed of discussion as is.

I don't think we need a separate thread at this stage, especially given the mobile game has provided us with more insight into the console version and created more discussion and speculation about the characters and their move lists.
