Hot on the heels of their surprise reveal back in November comes our first proper look at the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in their very own gameplay trailer. Their inclusion caps off an incredible three seasons of DLC for Injustice 2, bringing the total roster of playable characters to a whopping 41. Each turtle brings with them their own unique dialogue, animations and attitude, with players able to take control of Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael or Michelangelo by choice. The foursome share only anatomy, with each playing completely differently due to their differing fight styles and weapons.

Kombat will live in Injustice 2 beginning next month when Lin Kuei veteran Sub-Zero joins the fray as part of the title’s Fighter Pack 1 DLC.
