Injustice: Gods Among Us Dev Diary Looks At Special Moves

Ed Boon's upcoming fighter takes DC into bloody brawler territory.

Posted By | On 06th, Nov. 2012

When one of the creators of Mortal Kombat is involved in a fighting game, you know it’ll have that extra hint of brutality. NetherRealm Studios’ Injustice: Gods Among Us seems to push harder for that level of savagery that was missing from Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe, as this new development diary showcases many of the special moves the characters – like Flash, Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman – can pull off in the game.

And that’s not even the half of it, as you can literally punch your foes through skyscrapers and their adjoining floors, into different dimensions, utilize the environment and even change styles during play, moving into weapon-based combat or bare handed as Nightwing showcases. It may be a bit of an oddity but it looks like a bloody good time which gamers can sink their teeth into when it releases in April 2013 for Playstation 3, XBox 360 and Wii U.
