Netherrealm has added two new heavies to the Injustice: Gods Among Us roster: Lex Luthor (in his power suit) and Bane. The news comes courtesy of a tweet from Netherrealm’s supreme leader, Ed Boon:

Luthor looks very similar to his Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe incarnation while Bane will be taking his cues from the comics and not his recent appearance in The Dark Knight Rises. This includes the use of his Venom steroid as well as the luchadore mask.

Should this news get you excited for Injustice’s April release? Of course!

Deathstroke brings his skills to Injustice: Gods Among Us

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and NetherRealm Studios have been pretty quiet when it comes to Injustice: Gods Among Us over the last few months. Today, the publisher and developer confirmed that DC’s Deathstroke will make an appearance in the game.

Deathstroke is an assassin who is best known as an enemy of the Teen Titans. He’s also no stranger to the fighting game arena as he appeared in 2008’s Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe.

Injustice: Gods Among Us will be available for the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii U in April 2013.

The Joker and Green Lantern confirmed for Injustice thanks to ubercreepy box art

The Joker has never been one to shy away from a fight, and his gruesome mug is front and center on the official Injustice: Gods Among Us box art, just released today by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.

Also, did you know The Joker is going to be included in Injustice: Gods Among Us? Because he is. And apparently so is the Green Lantern. While it would have been a huge shock if either of these two characters didn’t make the final cut, it’s nice to finally have confirmation. But what I’d really like to know is who’ll be voicing the Clown Prince of Crime now that Mark Hamill has hung up his purple suit.

Injustice: Gods Among Us is still in development at NetherRealm Studios and will be available for the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii U in April 2013.

Green Arrow bulleyes a spot on the Injustice: Gods Among Us roster

Green Arrow, the Robin Hood-like character that’ll begin starring in his own CW series (Arrow) tonight has also been confirmed as a part of NetherRealm’s Injustice: Gods Among Us. The goateed archer isn’t the only Injustice reveal we can expect in the near future, as Ed Boon has promised that two more characters will be revealed later today!

Injustice: Gods Among Us is in development for the PS3, Wii U, and Xbox 360 and will be released next April.

Injustice: Gods Among Us comic book incoming

The DC Universe one-on-one fighter Injustice: Gods Among Us is all set to receive a comic book based around events of the game, according to comments from NetherRealm Studios’ co-founder Ed Boon at the EB Expo in Australia.

“We’re working on an Injustice comic book to carry the story and tell the events that came before the game. With a game like Mortal Kombat, so many things spawned from there, like the movie. Obviously the extreme version is it would spawn a lot more things, but I know for sure we are making an Injustice comic.”

More things? Could he be hinting at the rumoured Justice League film as DC prepare to try and follow the success of Marvel’s The Avengers? Or is that just wishful thinking? Given DC’s excellent run of animated direct-to-DVD films, perhaps there could even be an Injustice film if fans of Batman and his brood show enough interest in the comic.

While there was no more information on the comic series, I’d expect it to emerge alongside the game in April 2013.

Injustice: Gods Among Us Collector’s Edition includes most awesome/ridiculous statue ever

If you lay down your $99.99 to purchase the Injustice: Gods Among Us Collection’s Edition, available in April for the PS3 and Xbox 360, you’ll receive the statue above among your box of goodies. Look at it, I mean really look at it… Wonder Woman has lassoed Batman around the throat and is about to crush him with the spaceship that little Kal-El (AKA Superman) used to fly to Earth.

Deserves a place of honor on your mantle doesn’t it?

In addition to the 13″ statue, purchasers will receive a “Special Collector’s Edition” of a brand new DC Comics series, a digital download of DC Universe animated film Justice League: Doom, and three exclusive skins based on Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman from DC’s “New 52.”

Warner Bros. and NetherRealm Studios are packing a different (and superior) statue in with the Injustice Collector’s Edition in the UK. You can check out that awesome piece after the break. (more…)
