Injustice 2: Fighter Pack 1 revealed (Starfire, Red Hood, Subzero announced as DLC)

None of those looks like Nightwing... *cries himself to sleep*

Despite me listing Grundy, I doubt the one on the right is Grundy.

The one in the back left looks so generic it could even be Nightwing, but canonically he's dead in this universe.

Black Manta is the best out of the announced characters, two characters from MK is extremely disappointing but also to be expected.

Let the games begin!
I feel like the one next to Black Manta is Constantine, namely with the collar of his trench coat.

In a way, this video confirms how weird NR"s animation work is. What exactly DID everyone do at the end of their introductions? It barely looked like they "Clashed their powers" at mid screen, it was more like they went for an awkward high five.

Having all 3 walk out and pose afterwards works well for seeing the models, but it also... really makes no sense after what we just saw.

At any rate, Starfire should be interesting, I don't really care too much about Red Hood (don't know the character well, what makes him unlike Deadshot in a game like this?), and Sub Zero... *shrug*. As many characters in the DC universe (or others) that can use Ice, why Sub Zero... Maybe they'll make jokes about Killer Frost off of this.

Black Manta and Raiden taking up obvious hint spots feels kinda nice. Doesn't Epcar voice Modern Raiden too? Lets see how that works across from the Joker...

Being dead in universe doesn't really matter, and especially not for DLC characters. Sub Zero and Raiden obviously do not existing in the Injustice universe.

I think the 3 characters on the right are all MK characters.

Raiden, the rock guy (Tremor I think) and maybe Mileena?

I thought they said all the DLC were new characters. Wasn't Grundy in Injustice 1?

Her attire design is atrocious... and yet once again the male cast are clothed and armored.

Im so glad Red Hood is in!!! I don't want him at all but now everyone can shut up about putting him in. I really don't want Sub-Zero but excepted it, Raiden however is rubbing salt in the wound. Also disappointed only two females apparently :(
 
I'll wait for Injustice XL on sale

This shit is ridiculous.

At least with SFV I got all the DLC fighters I wanted with the In game currency.

Huh, I actually thought , for what you're getting, the DLC was priced pretty fairly. Comes out to being like $4.50 for each character, plus you get extras.

Also the SFV comparison isn't super fair since the game launched at $60 with 16 characters and remarkably less content than Injustice 2 will have so

Oh, the brighter version of the image makes it clear that the guy to the right of Black Manta (his left) definitely isn't Constantine.

;_;

So it's a Red Hood and the Outlaws DLC pack?

I can dig it.

Provided Starfire has her Judas Contract VA. I love her Teen Titans VA, but Wahlgren tends to fit the more adult Starfire.

Trailer was hype, but more than one MK character is too much. DC has so many cool heroes everyone would love too see in a fighting game - use them!

Yeah, I really hope that they use her JLvTT/Judas Contract VA. Nothing against her TT VA, but as you said, this Starfire looks older.

That's more of a Starting from Scratch vs. Building off of Existing Assets thing concerning the rosters of both games.
 
I think that the silhouette labeled as "Grundy" its actually Azrael. It fits better.
The chances of getting Constantine are slim to None but we are getting Red Hood and Black Manta, which is awesome.
 
Uggh

Is there a single person out there actually likes the original "sexy" design of Starfire. It always looked like absolute trash. Her animated Teen Titans design is so much better.

Thank you. A very long story mode with multiple paths, 28-29 characters at launch each with 10+ added moves onto the base movesets, living "towers" to earn rewards, and a shit ton of gear compared to:

Playing godawful survival mode to make your character's costume yellow or to save to spend on a character that doesn't get revealed or released for months on end lol.

EDIT: If you have Amazon Prime, or best buy GCU the ultimate edition is 80 bucks and totally worth it.

I mean, that's a pretty fair price for the base game + all of the DLC right off the bat.

That said, you could wait for the inevitable Definitive Edition if the asking price is a bit too high right now, though I personally see it as the opportunity to get into the metagame from the ground-floor.

Since Mortal Kombat X, NRS has the best dlc character reveals. It's cool when they walk forward from out of the darkness to reveal themselves.

This is why you should all wait for Injustice 2XL.

Don't support this revolting practice please.

I still don't understand why EA and Activision are always the evil demons when WB is a thing.
