'Injustice 2' New Playable Character Confirmed: Everything To Know About Fighting Style, Moves And Toolset of Swamp Thing
JEV"Injustice 2" will get Swamp Thing as another confirmed playable character. NetherRealm will announce the next playable character from DC on February 23, Thursday but they already did a pre-announcement on the official "Injustice" website.
One of IGN staff who has played an early version of "Injustice 2" at NetherRealm Studios in Chicago describes Swamp Thing character in the game as one with toolset that is full of unorthodox moves.
He describes the superhumanoid swamp monster's play style as "anything but typical." The protector of the environment and humanity has a "a hybrid zoner/grappler" fighting style.
One of his unique fighting styles is his projectile attack called Log Kick. "Just like it sounds, he kicks a log across the screen towards his opponent, but this is no Hadouken," notes the IGN staff. Bio Fission is another fighting style of Swamp Thing and he clones himself that appear behind his opponent and strike at them.
Other playable characters confirmed for Injustice 2 include Blue Beetle, Batman, Harley Quinn, The Flash, Superman, Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Deadshot, Aquaman, Gorilla Grodd, Robin, Cheetah, Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Atrocitus and Black Canary.
"Injustice 2" will be released for PS4 and Xbox One on May 16. But there is an ongoing closed beta right now, so players may not have to wait that long to try the game. Black Canary is recently added as a playable character during this closed beta.
Ed Boon also announced that "Injustice 2" will also arrive to mobile phones. He confirmed on Thursday via Twitter that the game will be coming on mobile gadgets. "Yes #Injustice2 is coming to mobile! Brand new app with tons of new features, modes & all new combat system! More info soon!," he tweeted.
The original game in the franchise titled Injustice: Gods Among Us was also adapted on iOS and Android devices. It allows players to play the game using the mobile phone touchscreen system.
Touch Arcade reports that the "Injustice 2" mobile version already had a a soft-launch in the Philippines. It includes an upgraded version of the swipe and tap-based combat of the original mobile version of the game.
