If It Ever Happens, One Injustice 3 Addition Feels Automatic

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I can confidently say that the prospect of Injustice 3 has me on the edge of my seat. The clash between the DC Universe and Mortal Kombat is a match made in video game heaven, and I’ve been eagerly waiting for NetherRealm to drop some hints about their next project.

NetherRealm Studios is diligently developing its next title, though they haven’t confirmed whether it’s Injustice 3, or if we can expect another installment in the Injustice series at all. Given the financial success of this franchise, it seems unlikely that NetherRealm would let go of it. However, since they recently released two consecutive Mortal Kombat games, fans of Injustice are eager for updates about a potential third game. This silence leaves room for much speculation on what a new Injustice game could offer.

Discussing potential characters for the lineup of Injustice 3, there’s much debate among fans. Characters such as Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman likely will make the main roster. However, the diverse selection of guest characters in Injustice 2 makes predicting DLC characters challenging. Nevertheless, one character that seems quite probable could be included, especially considering a trend from the first two games: It’s highly likely that at least one character from a related franchise will join the game.

Injustice 3 Could Have Another Run at Mortal Kombat vs. DC

Obtaining licenses for guest characters in a fighting game can sometimes be challenging. Characters such as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Hellboy could add excitement to a game like Injustice 2, but securing the rights to these characters can involve a long and costly process. A straightforward solution: utilize characters that NetherRealm already owns.

In the first two installments of the “Injustice” series, NetherRealm chose to include three guest characters from another game – specifically, Mortal Kombat. Scorpion was the only one in the first game, “Injustice: Gods Among Us”. However, Sub-Zero and Raiden made appearances in “Injustice 2”. If a third “Injustice” game is released, it’s likely that we’ll see more characters from Mortal Kombat as downloadable content.

The Mortal Kombat Characters Most Likely to Appear in Injustice 3

In the Mortal Kombat series, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and Raiden are undoubtedly the most renowned combatants. However, it can be challenging to foretell which character might emulate their iconic status in the future.

While not quite as renowned as ninjas, Liu Kang has long held the role of the primary character in the Mortal Kombat series. Given his historical importance, it seems fitting that he should be invited as a guest character for Injustice 3. Moreover, since Liu Kang is the deity of fire in the first installment of Mortal Kombat, NetherRealm Studios could use him to further develop the storyline within their main franchise.

It’s quite likely that Johnny Cage will make an appearance in future installments of the Injustice series. With significant roles in Mortal Kombat (2011), Mortal Kombat X, and Mortal Kombat 11, as well as his iconic brash personality and flamboyant fighting style, Cage has become a beloved character within the franchise’s recent history. His witty and eccentric dialogue in the Mortal Kombat games has left fans eager to see him go head-to-head with notable characters like Batman, the Flash, or Wonder Woman – an opportunity that seems too enticing to resist.

A Villainous Twist For Injustice 3

In contrast to Mortal Kombat, where its iconic heroes and antiheroes take center stage, Injustice has historically explored the complexities of heroes becoming villains. If Injustice 3 aims to introduce something fresh, Shao Kahn could be an intriguing choice for DLC, as he embodies this conflict between good and evil.
