‘Injustice 2’ News: Swamp Thing Added To The Game’s Roster [VIDEO]
Pia MerciAccording to a video released by IGN just today, a new hero will emerge on NetherRealm Studios' DC Universe fighter "Injustice 2." That hero would be Swamp Thing -- a humanoid-plant elemental creature.
Swamp Thing was created by artist Berni Wrightson and writer Len Wein. The character first appeared in #92 of the House of Secrets back in July 1971, which is a horror story set in the early 20th century. In the mid 80's, the character made a return during a run in The Sage of the Swamp Thing comics.
Swamp Thing is basically a swamp monster that looks like a humanoid filled with plant matter. The character is set to fight and protect his home, the environment and humanity from different types of threats.
Based on the video, Swamp Thing's ability set is to take advantage on manipulating vegetation. The character has a suite of ranged attacks that allows him to grab hold of his enemy from a distance and can even rapidly close in to the enemy with teleportation type of skills. He also can create clones of himself during fights imitating "Mortal Kombat's" famous Noob Saibot.
Swamp Thing was just behind Blue Beetle in a poll tweeted by Ed Boon, NetherRealm's creative director. This makes him one of the most requested characters in "Injustice 2." The humanoid-plant is said to join the recently verified Black Canary on the "Injustice 2" list of characters, bringing the game's lineup to 19 confirmed characters.
"Injustice 2" is a fighting video game developed by NetherRealm Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. This would be a sequel to "Injustice: Gods Among Us."
The game is set to be released in May 16, 2017, playable on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Just like the previous chapter, a version for mobile devices will also be developed for iOS and Android devices. Check out the video for more of Swamp Thing.
