As of May 2025, NetherRealm has officially ended support for MK1, announcing that there would be no more DLC or story chapters coming fater the release of the Definitive Edition, sparking rumors that a new Injustice game would be the studio's next major effort.

Around that same time, a credible dataminer also sparked rumors of another Injustice installment rumors of another Injustice installment, and roughly three months later, we now have more evidence that another installment in the superhero fighting game franchise is on the way.

During their appearance at Nostalgia Con in Houston, George Newbern and Phil LaMarr, who voice Superman and Green Lantern, reportedly told fans in their autograph line that brought Injustice merchandise for the pair to sign, that NetherRealm was currently hard at work on a new Injustice game.

We'll caution that Newbern and LaMarr didn't specify that this was a major console release, so it's possible that it could be a new Injustice mobile game as NetherRealm has found great success with mobile games in recent years.

NetherRealm has a typical development pattern of alternating between its two flagship games- Mortal Kombat and Injustice, and with MK1 being the most recent release, it stands to reason that the next fighting game released by Ed Boon and co. will be a new Injustice game. Especially considering that they broke that pattern by releasing two Mortal Kombat games back-to-back- MK11 (2019) and the pseudo-reboot, MK1 (2023):

2013 - Injustice: Gods Among Us
2015 - Mortal Kombat X
2017 - Injustice 2
2019 - Mortal Kombat 11
2023 - Mortal Kombat 1

Also, DC Studios co-chief James Gunn recently stated that he met with NetherRealm and RockSteady about more DC games, another clue that Injustice 3 is on the horizon. Gunn made that statement back in February and confirmed that both studios had games in development and that he was reviewing concept art and narrative elements.

Injustice 2 ends with two possible outcomes based on player actions, and it will be interesting to see which one becomes the canonical choice in Injustice 3.

One choice has Batman side with Superman and usher in a new era on Earth with the Man of Steel as the leader of a new superhero regime, while the other choice sees Superman restricted by an artificial red sun, with Supergirl replacing him as Earth's main Kryptonian champion.

Despite no official confirmation from NetherRealm, the Batman victory ending is widely considered the more probable canonical route.

Let’s get Mxyptlik and Bat-Mite this time.

A DC fighting game that ISNT Injustice 3 would be better.

1) The story has nowhere good to go and it would be best to move on from the tired and overplayed evil Superman story.

2) The fighting mechanics of the Injustice series really suck compared to other fighting games. Injustice 2 was essentially all about projectiles with no other elements to the fighting even mattering at all.

After the failure that was MK1, NRS needs their next game to be a hit.

Maybe it can be set instead on the planet that the good Superman was from and then update the mechanics to be a better balanced fighting game than the previous Injustice games have been.

Feel free to keep all the great character customization and single player modes. Those are the series strong suit. But we need a better version of the DC universe and a competent fighting system.

@mountainman - Where did the story leave off?

Sad to hear about the gameplay. I was always curious about the games due to the story but fighting games like that aren't really what I gravitate towards anymore

@Wahhvacado - in the article ;)

I didn't play the second but if I remember right the first had the injustice universe and prime universe characters fighting with it ending with injustice superman being imprisoned by an artificial red sum lol

Wahhvacado - 9/1/2025, 12:26 PM

@NonPlayerC - Thanks, slow morning for me but making coffee now. I started looking up to see if the comics aligned with the games and He-Man came into play in the comics!?

It could be cool to see Batman in Superman's role but using his protocols to either convert or take down heroes

NonPlayerC - 9/1/2025, 12:36 PM

@Wahhvacado - yeah, pretty sure ive seen that storyline in the justice league animated series and a comic or two but yeah, they could try making someone else the bad guy. They could always to the Hal Jordan parallax thing, or the aqua man declaring war on the surface with themasura as an ally, or evil flash.... pretty sure its all been done at this point lol what do I care im just a comic nerd

Wahhvacado - 9/1/2025, 12:45 PM

@NonPlayerC - interested to see where they go. I do watch some of the cut scenes from time to time and then my algorithm goes into it a little too hard

HashTagSwagg - 9/1/2025, 1:30 PM

@mountainman - Shaolin monks type gameplay with DC characters.

mountainman - 9/1/2025, 1:35 PM

@HashTagSwagg - F yes. Shaolin Monks was such a great game.

dracula - 9/1/2025, 11:28 AM

Wonder how they will handle Batman

Could try using unused material of Kevin’s but that will only get them so far

Diedrch Bader
Bruce Greenwood
Roger Craig Smith
Hemish Linklighter
Jensen Ackles

JonAwesome - 9/1/2025, 12:02 PM

@dracula - Bruce Greenwood was such a great Batman in Under the Red Hood! I vote for him! Roger Craig Smith would be good especially if they move forward with more Arkham games with him as the lead.

As much as I can ant to be excited for this, you know WB will pull the same pay to play nonsense that has made up their recent games where they buckle and dine you for everything and lock most of the content behind an additional pay wall after they ask you to spend 60- 120 bucks.

Until they go back to the old model where when you paid for their game, you got the entire game, I’ll save my money

Bucky74 - 9/1/2025, 11:30 AM

@Bucky74 - “Can’t wait” and “want to be excited for this”. Can we get an edit button?

WalletsClosed - 9/1/2025, 11:42 AM

NetherRealm is dead. Haven't made a good game in years. I'm good

DocSpock - 9/1/2025, 11:44 AM

They have worn this thing out. Time for something new.

AnEye - 9/1/2025, 12:21 PM

If they make the gameplay/fighting mechanics different, then I'm down.

Other than that, it's just not that enjoyable. As far as content though, there is tons to do with Injustice 2 without a paywall. Same with the first Injustice.

But as far as fighting games go, it's pretty mediocre compared to others. But hopefully it's something interesting this time around and not more of the same. Dare I say, a complete overhaul.

Story can go anywhere honestly. Don't know if Superman would still be an evil character, but judging that is been so long, my guess is that Superman will go on a journey of redemption in Injustice 3.

ModHaterSLADE - 9/1/2025, 12:55 PM

Hope we get playable Constantine and Etrigan.

THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - 9/1/2025, 1:26 PM

It won't be the same without Kevin Conroy, especially since the rest of the cast will stay the same.

HashTagSwagg - 9/1/2025, 1:29 PM

They put injustice 3 on hold after 2 rightfully underperformed and gave us 2 mk's in a row now that mk1 anso;utely shit the bed hard, they going back to the old method of one for MK and one for injustice. I just hope the writers for that last mk game aren't involved whatsoever becasuse holy shit did they suck at their job.
