The story modes in both Injustice titles involve quite a bit of what I’ve taken to somewhat endearingly referring to as “alternate universe nonsense.” By that, I mean that there exist two parallel universes within which both games’ events take place. If you’d rather not read that article, I shall provide a brief recap of the first game’s plot and how the events therein partially set the stage for Injustice 2. If you’re unfamiliar with the established lore present in the Injustice franchise, I humbly suggest reading my review of the aforementioned Injustice: Gods Among Us. I’m pleased to report that Injustice 2 is no exception to NetherRealm’s usual story-crafting prowess as far as I’m concerned. I greatly enjoy learning all I can about several aspects of the lore within games which prominently feature a well-crafted, engaging story. Of course, I harbor that opinion mainly because I’m something of a “lore nerd,” for lack of a better description. I’ve stated in my previous reviews of NetherRealm’s catalog of fighting games that I personally think NetherRealm has quite a knack for making the stories told within their games particularly interesting and compelling. Throughout this review, I intend to explain exactly what those aspects are and why they’ve served to complicate my general opinions on both Injustice titles.īefore I begin detailing the major differences between both Injustice games and the reasons I have a complex view of them, I think it would be appropriate for me to spend awhile discussing a couple of aspects which illustrate how the two games are similar to one another, for better or for worse.Ī good starting point is to evaluate the plot present within Injustice 2’s story mode.

Injustice 2 is different from its predecessor in a multitude of ways, and I have mixed feelings about several of the more prominent aspects that separate the two games. I see no harm in revisiting the forever-changed version of the DC Comics universe in which the events of both Injustice games take place. To that end, I wanted to determine whether there existed a reason, or perhaps even several reasons, why I had allowed Injustice 2’s existence to slip my mind for so long. I mainly elected to do so because Injustice 2 has been on my “to-review” list for quite a while and I’ve finally found the time have a second look at it. Of course, I’m referring to Injustice 2, the direct sequel to 2013’s Injustice: Gods Among Us. I recently felt the desire to spend some time with 2017’s addition to NetherRealm Studios’ collection of fighting games as I hadn’t done so in quite some time according to Steam.
