Mortal Kombat is a lot more popular surprisingly then Injustice 2 is. MKX sold double what Injustice 2 has in the same amount of time, so I think MKXI is next up but NetherRealms hasn't commented either way yet. That's different from last time where once MKX came out, NetherRealms was like, we are absolutely working on Injustice 2 now.

MKX was also early into this generation when only KI and Guilty Gear were big deals and MK had way more name recognition. IJ2 has to compete with goddamned Tekken 7 ;ike a week later or something, so I'm not surprised at the outcomes.

The Injustice Pro Series Finals are on right now. Pretty good variety in the Top 8 after the recent Deadshot madness

https://www.twitch.tv/netherrealm

Edit: The top 4 televised on ESPN2. Legitimacy achieved

Semiij played out of his mind for a hot second but SonicFox is too good. Also Captain Cold continues to be fun to watch

Raiden trailer at the end of the tournament/stream, but that's not the most important part of the announcement.

I've paid no attention to the DLC rollout, was that little Raiden twist known before now?

it was rumored that raiden was removed and black lightning was added instead or some mumbling of the sort. This is the first official announcement of Black Lightning in Injustice 2.

god drat those moves and that super are loving crazy. Glad they found a way to please everybody by injecting Black Lightning into the game as well. I imagine the super would be changed slightly for that.

Because Black Lightning won't get cool gear to mess with and I'd rather have that than different Raiden hats and stupid masks

The real loss in no Black Lightning gear is that he won't get a Black Vulcan mask or Static's dreads.

Inj2 is still popular enough but whats surprising about MK selling more? MK is a powerhouse franchise even in the years when fighting games were "dead" in the early/mid 2000's.


Raiden looks slick as hell, I am glad that jabroni black lightning is a premium skin so the superior MK characters can have their rightful place over DC sideshow acts :cool:

yea I'm just a bit salty about this for a few reasons but one of the big ones is 'why is the DC hero the MK guy's alternate skin in the DC game that already has solid MK representation'.

raiden's outfit being bad is why it's good he's the main, it means you can hopefully cobble up something better from gear drops
