#Gaming NEWS! #DC characters fight each other...AGAIN!

What a random surprise Warner Bros. just announced!!

Warner announced an upcoming title developed by NetherRealm Studios slated for 2013 and it is called....


"Injustice: Gods Among Us".
which will be an all-new fighting game from the Mortal Kombat developers.
What a twist!
This new random title will have the likes of the Trinity (Bats, WW, Supes) and The Flash facing off against such villains as Harley Quinn and Solomon Grundy!
...Huh, random?!
Nice to see 'em use a random title like this.  (and not, say, "Batman & co: Fighting Superstars!!" XD)

But, guys, don't you nromally do these random proprieties-inspired fighting games to build an audience for a crossover? You already did Mortal Kombat Vs. DC! ~
(you know, like X-Men -> X-Men Vs. Street Fighter, Marvel Super heroes -> Marvel Vs. Capcom)

Anyways, the game will be shown more clearly at this year's E3.
Ed Boon explained how the game will use two main categories of characters, the power-users and the ones with gadgets.

Here's some character designs, which seem to take some clues from the current comics "New 52" (specially Supes) :



(pants on Wonder Woman? "Odyssey" anyone?)

Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti will apparently be writing the plot here. (a plot? in my fighting games!?)

And here's the official trailer:
