In fact, it is the PlayStation port specifically that will be included with this kollection. While the digital version of Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection is expected in…

The moment you have all been waiting for has arrived: Mortal Kombat II’s official red-band trailer is here.

TOASTY! The man behind Mortal Kombat’s most iconic music tracks has announced his retirement from the team after more than three decades. Dan Forden served as one of the original four team members who created the original Mortal Kombat in 1992 alongside Ed Boon, John Tobias and John Vogel. Its unique digitised graphics and gruesome finishing moves aside, a huge part of Mortal Kombat’s appeal came from its catchy soundtrack and crispy sound effects. Game after game he continued to perfect his craft, and although others eventually joined the sound development team his influence remained front and centre. Wednesday was…

Driven by an unwavering desire to keep the streets clean, Black Canary makes her long awaited debut in Injustice 2. While almost making it into the first title in the franchise, Dinah Laurel Lance screams into battle in her signature tight leather attire, ready to open a can of whoop-ass on anyone standing in her way. Fighting alongside some of the DC Universe’s most well-known super heroes, Black Canary uses her ultrasonic scream to incapacitate foes and crumble objects with razor precision. She has worked alongside Green Arrow, Batman and the Justice League, as well as led her own team of…
Following a slew of updates in recent days, NetherRealm Studios appears to be upping the ante on their Injustice 2 news as the game’s release draws ever closer. The official Injustice website has today been updated to advertise the reveal of a new character on February 2 (North American time). Who will it be? When the veil of secrecy is lifted will we see the first gameplay footage of Poison Ivy or perhaps Braniac who were both teased in the recently released “Lines Redrawn” story trailer? Or will we see someone different entirely join the fray?
Struggling with his father’s non-lethal code of honour, Robin joins the Injustice 2 roster in search of a new mentor in Superman. Having been trained by the League of Assassins, Damian Wayne considers himself a formidable foe and is both an expert swordsman and martial artist. His inclusion in Injustice 2 was confirmed during the studio’s Watchtower live stream that aired today and was celebrated by its audience across the globe.
The lines between hero and villain are blurred as a new threat emerges in the latest trailer for Injustice 2. Titled “The Lines are Redrawn,” this latest trailer focuses on the game’s narrative which follows on from its predecessor. While familiar faces Superman, Batman, Supergirl and Wonder Woman make an appearance, new characters emerge during the course of the trailer, with hints delivered as to the inclusion of Robin, Bane and Poison Ivy. It is later revealed that the narrator is the cold and calculating Collector of Worlds, better known as Brainiac. Darkseid, who was featured in the mobile version of Injustice:…
Months have passed without so much as a whisper of Injustice 2 news, leading many to speculate on the exact state of the project. That ended today, with Ed Boon revealing the worldwide release date for the title: 16 May, 2017. While Boon did not use the term “release date,” other sources close to the project have acknowledged the date. It also marks studio’s first title to be released outside of their usual April window since Warner Bros.’ acquisition of select Midway assets in 2009.
With all things quiet on the western front, it is perhaps fitting that NetherRealm Studios break their lengthy silence with an amazing rendition of the Mannequin Challenge to Cage the Elephant’s “Trouble”. Planking was all the rage in 2010; 2014 saw the introduction of the hugely popular Ice Bucket Challenge and now Mannequin Challenge videos are sweeping the web. The video marks the studio’s second foray into popular crazes, with members of the team previously releasing an Ice Bucket Challenge video to help raise awareness of ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).
With Black Canary’s surprise announcement coming only a couple of days ago, NetherRealm Studios are gearing up to announce yet another addition to the Injustice 2 roster come February 7 (North American time). UPDATE: A tweet from the official Injustice 2 Twitter page has confirmed that the character reveal has been delayed and will happen next week due to unforeseen circumstances.
