Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment and NetherRealm Studios have revealed the Raiden gameplay trailer for Injustice 2 and confirmed that superhero Black Lightning will arrive, with the character’s release as a brand-new Premiere Skin that accompanies the Raiden DLC.
Injustice 2 continues the epic cinematic story introduced in Injustice: Gods Among Us as Batman and his allies work towards putting the pieces of society back together while struggling against those who want to restore Superman’s regime. In the midst of the chaos, a new threat appears that will put Earth’s existence at risk. Players can play from the biggest DC roster ever offered in a fighting game, from classic fan favorites such as Batman, Superman, Supergirl and Aquaman, to astonishing new villains like Atrocitus, Gorilla Grodd, and Deadshot. Battles will take place across arenas that have evolved in scale and span across iconic locations such as Metropolis, Gotham City and Atlantis.
The game is currently available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Check out the Trailer:
Raiden/Black Lightning looks to be a little bit more combo-centric than his old MK self, able to use an upcharge and close strikes to chain together numerous hits in one shot. That said, he does still have some old-school about him, including his “Superman” charge (which may take on a whole new meaning here if he uses it on the Man of Steel) that allows him to bum rush an opponent across the room for some damage.
He can also grab an opponent for a quick charge, set up a particle in mid-air to catch an enemy for additional hits, and a teleport (classic style) that can have him strike a foe from behind. He can also ensnare an opponent in what appears to be a “lightning rectangle”, which will trap them until Raiden/Black Lightning attacks. An invisible charge can kind of be used to propel an opponent into the air for additional hits as well.
