Xbox leak
I don't know if it would be too much publication of piracy however it is related news that the xbox 360 version leaked on April 4th to torrent sites. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.226.159.200 (talk) 04:23, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Interviews and information
Hello Wikipedians, it's been a while since i've been actively editing but with Injustice coming around I thought i'd come help contribute to finding references and development information from interviews. Since this is the talk page, I thought i'd store all the information here for the time being.

To begin we have an interview from Jeff Gerstmann of Giant Bomb: http://e3.gamespot.com/live-show-2/live-show-day-1/ At around 58:00 he talks about the game mentioning information like the Netherrealm Studios and DC collaboration, and the fighting system of the game.

Here's an interview with Adam Urbano calling the Injustice engine as heavily modified Mortal Kombat (2011 video game) engine. And claims of added depth for pro-players in comparison to Mortal Kombat 2011.

Similar interview with Adam Urbano but here he confirms that it is 60 frames per second just like Mortal Kombat 9. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPRNQGngces

I'll be editing in more information as I come across it but hopefully we can get this article well and informative by the time the game comes out. Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 01:00, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Second DC Game by NRS
Should this be reworded or no? Technically, the same development team created Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe, but at the time they were still under the Midway banner. 216.165.95.72 (talk) 21:45, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I've removed the sentence entirely; as you pointed out, it was Midway that developed the game, not NR, which didn't exist (technically). EVula // talk // &#9775;  // 14:37, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Doomsday Source
Is the source that confirms Doomsday as a playable character a credible one - ? LoveWaffle (talk) 03:30, 10 March 2013 (UTC)

Teen Titans
The page here mentions they've gotten Scott Menville, Greg Cipes, Khary Payton, and Tara Strong for interviews, and while I can find several of Tara Strong with Wayne Brady, I've been unable to find the others. SalaComMander (talk) 03:29, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Scott, Greg, and Khary were briefly featured in the "Injustice Battle Arena Weekly Match-Up: Quarter Finals Part 2" video.  W ANI (talk)  03:34, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Ah, thank you. SalaComMander (talk) 03:37, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Battle Arena Celebrities
Is it really necessary to list every celebrity that's participated in the Injustice Battle Arena promotional event? LoveWaffle (talk) 21:19, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
 * That's what I was thinking a while ago...and the answer is 'probably not'. We could possibly either list off a few of the more notable guests, or simply leave them off entirely.  W ANI (talk)  21:35, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

iOS release date
Hey, I'm a wee bit rushed for time here, but I couldn't find an actual reliable source for the game being released on the 3rd; everything I found was dated for the 4th. That's kind of annoying, because I know it was on the 3rd (I tweeted the link for the game to a friend on the 3rd), but I don't have time to find a better source. Just throwing this out there, should the date ever come into question (or if someone can find a better source). EVula // talk // &#9775;  // 23:38, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

Would Someone Source these?T-Nuggett (talk) 03:40, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

The voices are accurate, but they don't have any names tied to them; you're just guessing. Who's to say David Sobolov doesn't play Shazam, or Nolan North playing Nightwing? Hell, a lot of these don't even sound like the voices you've tied to them. You'll need a better source; perhaps contact the actors themselves via facebook/twitter/e-mail to verify? -- 69.14.66.237 (talk) 04:05, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

The Correct Name is Captain Marvel
The article and a discussion below refer to Captain Marvel as "Shazam." The hero's name is "Captain Marvel" and not "Shazam." Shazam was the wizard who granted Captain Marvel his powers and whose name Billy Batson calls in order to turn into Captain Marvel. Does the game incorrectly identify the character, or are the Wikipedia authors incorrectly identifying him? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.165.240.116 (talk) 20:22, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Captain Marvel was renamed Shazam with The New 52 relaunch. Even if people still use "Captain Marvel", the game identifies him as "Shazam", so that is the name we must use in the article.  W ANI (talk)  20:40, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Correct; the character was renamed in the comics. Even if he wasn't, he's called Shazam in the game, and that's what we would honor; if he was called Captain Kangaroo, we'd call him that (but link to the correct article). EVula // talk // &#9775;  // 20:47, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

Comic - should it have its own article?
Hi the Comic that details the lead up to this has been incredibly popular, regularly topping the charts on Amazon and Comixology: http://www.comixology.com/comics-best-sellers [ http://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Kindle-Store-Comics-Graphic-Novels/zgbs/digital-text/156104011/ref=zg_bs_nav_kstore_2_154606011 Amazon best sellers: comics and graphic novels]. I think it should either get it's own article or an expanded entry in this page. Master z0b (talk) 06:34, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

The Flash
The Earth-2 skin is Jay Garrick and the other skins are Barry Allen. It is like how the Nightwing skins are. Mattseay3000 (talk) 23:14, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

DLC leak news?
Prior to the DLC season pass characters being released, some news pieces had came up reporting on a possible DLC link that now, looking back was proven true. Is it worth mentioning in some capacity in this article? Valid sources provided of course. Stabby Joe (talk) 00:05, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Injustice sequel
Um, according to IMDB, theres an Injustice sequel called 'Injustice 2' that will arrive in 2020. I don't know if this should be added to the page. You can check it out here 137.147.75.202 (talk) 14:22, 1 January 2014 (UTC)


 * I'd say that's just ridiculous. Nobody plans a game taking six years to make. --uKER (talk) 18:17, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Article improvements/changes
I have made several edits to the article in preparation for a good article nomination. The last time I worked on this page (couple of years ago, I think...), I managed to get it roughly up to B-Class article standards before the game faded from my interest. Since that's pretty darn close to GA status, I thought I'd come back and get it up there. Many changes were minor, but I did delete some significant parts, namely those involving character skins. Personally, I think they're non-notable, and listing them off is fancruft. I also removed a huge paragraph from the downloadable content section about skins, since it was largely unreferenced and, again, they just don't seem that important.

I am almost ready to submit the nomination. However, the one section that I am most worried about is the plot section. It's long, and poorly written and unclear in some parts (which is kind of expected; writing a summary about a story taking place in two separate realities/timelines is difficult). Any help with rewriting the story to be more concise/clearer for the reader is greatly appreciated! Wani (talk) 02:26, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Injustice 2 split
It has been officially announced, so throw away those WP:CRYSTAL's and let's vote on if this can be split, who's in. ULTRA-DARKNESS ''' :) 2 CHAT 17:27, 8 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Not yet: There isn't enough information to create a complete article. See WT:VG. AdrianGamer (talk) 05:25, 9 June 2016 (UTC)

The comic book series should have its own article
Why doesn't the comic book series have its own article? It should have one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.156.6.253 (talk) 19:48, 23 January 2017 (UTC)
