Fighting game Injustice 2 has added new content based on Justice League to celebrate the worldwide release of the anticipated superhero movie.
Released for both console and mobile versions of Injustice 2, the tie-in content includes the movie costumes for Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, and Cyborg. You can check out the costumes in the trailer below.
You can unlock the costumes by completing special challenges in Multiverse mode. Each costume arrives individually leading up to and after the premiere of Justice League. Developer NetherRealm Studios has already released the movie costumes for Wonder Woman, Flash, and Cyborg.
All special challenges will only be available for a limited time, so make sure you participate in them as soon as they become available.
Alternatively, you can purchase the costumes straight from the in-game store using real-world money, though the recent controversies surrounding Star Wars Battlefront 2 might discourage you from supporting microtransactions at the moment. Even if the costumes are purely cosmetic enhancements.
Interestingly, the Justice League costume for Superman is not included in the trailer for the tie-in content, most likely to keep how the character is handled in the movie a secret.
Superman has been largely missing in promotional materials for the movie, which is unsurprising considering he "died" at the end of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Once Justice League is out everywhere, Superman's movie costume could also make its way to Injustice 2.
Justice League is the fifth installment in the unofficially named DC Extended Universe (DCEU), following Man of Steel (2013), Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), Suicide Squad (2016), and Wonder Woman (2017). It stars Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Henry Cavill, Ezra Miller, Jason Momoa, and Ray Fisher as the core members of the titular superhero group.
Zack Snyder, who also helmed the first two DCEU movies, directed Justice League before abruptly leaving mid-production to attend to a family tragedy. Fan-favorite director Joss Whedon, who directed The Avengers (2012) and Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), took over directing duties.
Justice League releases worldwide tomorrow, November 17.
