Red Hood DLC trailer for Injustice 2

Hang on so Red Hood is the old Robin?

Dick Grayson is now Nightwing
Jason Todd was the 2nd Robin (is this now Red Hood in this game?)
Tim Drake was the 3rd Robin
Damian Wayne is the current Robin (and the one in this game?)

is that correct?
 
This looks really cool. Will we get all first DLC characters at once similar to MKX or one by one?
One by one, which is actually how MKX handled its first wave of DLC as well. Jason, Tanya, Tremor, and Predator all released several weeks/months apart.

Yes.
 
This made me curious what other DLC characters were on the way. I had heard Sub Zero was coming.

Then I found this:

Yes. Jason died and came back as Red Hood. In Injustice Dick is dead and Damian has become Nightwing, although he his spot is Robin in this game without gear.

Dick is dead.
Jason Todd is Red Hood.
Tim Drake is in the Phantom Zone.
Damian is the current Nightwing.
 
Most people speculate that in the injustice 2 comics Todd is a gun-toting red Batman working
for Ra's Al Ghul
. The identity of that Batman isn't confirmed yet though.
 
much edge wow~~

Looks a lot like Harley's playstyle, I would have opted for other DLC characters, or maybe even Nightwing but redhood fans yo.

Still hoping for etrigan. Bar none the best source of clash and intro quotes.
 
You ever realize how wacky being able to juggle someone with bullets is?
It's pretty wacky.

The bullets have MGG's (Pronounced "migs"). They are micro graviton generators. Developed initially by Wayne Tech as a way to lighten payload for professional applications (i.e. floating hospital beds/moving military gear). They have been modified by Lucius Fox for Jason with impact tips that when activated displace gravity temporarily.

This same technology has been implemented more intricately with power sources in his boots and gauntlets. With prolonged gravity displacement at his disposal Jason's acrobatic abilities are increased ten fold.

This all combined with his combat prowess allows Jason to essentially what looks like "juggle" his opponents. Actually pretty basic.
 
Why would he be against Superman? Red Hood's stitch is pretty much Injustice Superman no? (fuck incarceration it leads to nothing, the ends justify the means to stop crime, etc.)

He doesn't like Superman's dictatorship. Superman's ideology line up with his except Red Hood doesn't want to rule anyone. He's not power hungry.

Red Hood has come a long way in the comics, but even then I don't think he'd ever approve of the Regime. They are dictators.He's probably on his own side.
 
Better than I expected for the most part, my only nitpick is that his shuriken animation bouncing off makes them all look kinda floaty and weak. Feels like he's throwing party favors.

But outside of that, I don't generally like Red Hood as a character, but his playstyle seems alright in Injustice 2.
 
This.

Though current Rebirth Red Hood is my favorite

hoping his personality is a bit like it.

You didn't post the best part , the page before where batman is like

" motherfucker i'm some asshole who runs around in the middle of the night assaulting dressed as a bat, I am doing all types of illegal bullshit. As long as you don't act like a complete asshole were cool"
 
That's some weird timing, I saw Batman: Under the Red Hood yesterday for the first time (very much recommended BTW, why can't live action DC movies be simply shot-by-shot adaptations of their amazing animated ones?).

i think that video is why so many people became red hood fans

its really a shame how wide the gulf is from dc games / animation to their cinematic universe
 
Best Robin bruhhhh. Is there any stories where Jason interact with Damian? Both their aggresiveness seems neat together lol.

Because the people behind the animated movies love the source material. The Under the Red Hood animated movie was actually written by the guy who created the original comic storyline.

It's a damn shame because they have great movies practically pre-made for them.

But...why? Spawn's pretty cool...no? Was it because he was on Soul Calibur? Was he not good in that game?

Didn't know that, that's pretty great.

Spawn is so 90's Dark Age it hurts, but then again that might make him more appropriate for this game. But still, anyone who votes for him over Hellboy is a monster.

They locked horns a little in Robin War and Batman & Robin Eternal, iirc. Probably some of the other bat-family crossovers I'm forgetting. The general take is that they're way too similar to ever get along :P

Awww. I mean i like Damian as i see Jason in him a lot lol.

It will be funny though if in future they partner up as Batmand and Robin and it will be the edgiest bat pairinf ever lol.
 
Spawn is so 90's Dark Age it hurts said:
Maybe most of the votes are coming from people who grew up reading Spawn. Lol. Hellboy was going to be my 2nd vote, although Hellboy has that gauntlet and a big ass revolver. Spawn has a living cape his whole body can be made into weapons! The possibilities!

Edit: How the hell do you get this quote thing right...damnit.
 
Eh, his Super is just a bunch of his regular attacks with funky camera angles.

His victory animation is really weak, too.

I watched that years ago literally never even knew who red hood was (besides an alt of joker) but immediately was a fan
I really need to pick up injustice 2

Or at least they used to. The new animated movies are terrible.

They had recent interactions in Batman Rebirth #16. It's absolutely hilarious.
