INJUSTICE 3 CHARACTER ROSTER SERIES
Given how the Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath expansion ends, with series lead and Earthrealm defender Lui Kang ascending to godhood in place of Thunder God Raiden, things are quite open-ended for Mortal Kombat 12. Though we don’t know if NetherRealm will go in this direction, we here at TechRadar Gaming are keeping our fingers crossed. We’d like to see Mortal Kombat 12 return to the more fast-paced style of gameplay for which the series was originally known. It's arguable that there was even some influence from NetherRealm's DC Comics fighter series, InJustice, with the tonal shift.

While Mortal Kombat X had a particularly gritty tone, things were a little more tongue-in-cheek with Mortal Kombat 11 which was a bit brighter aesthetically and more colorful. Mortal Kombat as a franchise is known for its fatalities, brutalities, and over-the-top action violence. Mortal Kombat 11 also got rid of running, which, in the view of our hardware editor and Mortal Kombat veteran, Aleksha McLoughlin, was something of a misstep. However, the fights in Mortal Kombat 11 had a slower pace than in previous games, placing an emphasis on more methodical play at the expense of fast-paced rush-down playstyles. Whether or not you're using a controller or one of the best fight sticks, Mortal Kombat 11 had some solid fundamentals. With no concrete details about Mortal Kombat 12, we don’t yet know how NetherRealm will change the series. What is it? A 2D fighting game and the latest installment of the Mortal Kombat series.However, there are no guarantees at this stage. Given that Mortal Kombat 11 also came to Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One, there’s a chance that the title may be released for those consoles as well. Though we’ve had no official word as to which consoles Mortal Kombat 12 will be available for, it seems likely that the game will be available for PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC. It's likely that we'll see an expansion on this system in Mortal Kombat 12. Mortal Kombat 11 also introduced a character customization system that allowed players to customize their fighters with new skins, gear, and moves.

If Mortal Kombat 11 is anything to go by, however, we’ll most likely be in for an over-the-top story mode stuffed with delicious lore. Like its predecessors, Mortal Kombat 12 is likely to be a 2D fighting game, replete with an expansive roster of returning characters, such as Scorpion, Sub Zero, and Lui Kang. Mortal Kombat 12 was only announced recently via a Warner Brothers earnings call, so we don’t yet have many concrete details about the fighting game. The latest iteration of the classic fighting game from NetherRealm Studios will bring yet more no-holds-barred action and bloody violence to our screens. For example, Superman/Godfall has a unique icon, but Superman/Red Son does not, despite having a very different logo on his suit.Mortal Kombat 12 is coming out in 2023. Different versions of the same character may have a variation on the icon, most noticeably with Green Lantern, having completely different Lantern Corps icons for Red Lantern Hal Jordan and Yellow Lantern Hal Jordan, but not always. All character cards have an icon that represents them it is used both on the Super Move on the back of their card, as well as representing passive buffs in a match (appearing beneath their health bar).Shazam/Regime and Ares/Regime are found in the game code, but are never released.The Arkham Knight is announced as "Arkham Knight", without the "The". As may be expected due to not being included in the console game, mobile-exclusive characters are announced with slightly different voices, most noticeably with Static and Deadshot. For example, tapping on the card of Reverse Flash would result in the game saying "The Flash". All character cards have their "base" names announced by the voice when interacted with.The Arkham Knight is also indirectly released as the closely related " Red Hood", as it is the identity Jason Todd took up in Batman: Arkham Knight after giving up the eponymous title and his vendetta against Batman. Deadshot is playable in the Injustice 2 mobile game, but no version of Darkseid has been released yet. Two of the mobile exclusives for the first Injustice mobile game ( Darkseid and Deadshot) became playable in the Injustice 2 console game, although Darkseid has a different super move.There is also Boss Ares exclusively in Breakthrough who is not a playable character.Ĭhallenge Booster Pack, Special Challenge Booster Packs Injustice Mobile includes all 30 characters from the console game:Īdditionally, there are 5 mobile-exclusive characters.
