    not bad game, but not good either. The multiplayer is really miss & match, visual is decent, and the voice is also decent

    A great DC fighting game, I originally played it on PS4 a long time ago and I didn't have it anymore, so I'd better have it on Steam, it's a Mortal Kombat DC version that doesn't have a lot of violence and blood, I give it the story mode a 9.5/10 only that there are minigames that the truth is more or less I stayed to see and that I have already put an end to the whole game, the online oneA great DC fighting game, I originally played it on PS4 a long time ago and I didn't have it anymore, so I'd better have it on Steam, it's a Mortal Kombat DC version that doesn't have a lot of violence and blood, I give it the story mode a 9.5/10 only that there are minigames that the truth is more or less I stayed to see and that I have already put an end to the whole game, the online one did not help me since there are no players who are playing it, enjoyable and recommended on any console.… Expand

    Injustice's surprisingly high quality story mode, not just among fighting game standard, is more than a good reason to try it out.

    The interface is wonderful. You have so much information immediately available to you. Google Maps always has a minimap in the lower left corner, which gives you a good overview of the area. Getting information about people gives you a clear, clear window. Hacking offers a menu with easily recognizable icons, so you always know what your button presses will do.

    Buen juego de lucha y de superhéroes pero con una campaña corta y repetitiva.

    I was neither much into gaming nor interested in superheroes before 2015, when I learnt about this game. My cousin was playing the mobile version of this game. It looked so cool I thought this is something I must try. I asked him where is Spider-Man in this. He told me Spider-Man is a Marvel superhero. So I asked him whose superheroes are these then?

It looked so cool I thought this is something I must try. I asked him where is Spider-Man in this. He told me Spider-Man is a Marvel superhero. So I asked him whose superheroes are these then? That's how less I knew about superheroes before playing the mobile version of this game. Afterwards I learnt about the PC game and now I have purchased it.
    The influence of this game has been so hard on my life, I often used to roam around on my house's terrace wearing my towel like a cape (I was 21 at the time), imagining myself to be Superman (I really wish I could levitate). Before this game I never found Superman very attractive. I always saw him as a champu guy who wears an underwear on pants and has a spit curl. But only after I watched Man of Steel and then played the PC version of this game I realised how cool he is. I can imagine this game must have been a dream come true for any kid who played with the superhero action figures.
    The story of this game is very engaging. At first I thought the game is the adaptation of the Injustice comic series, but later I learnt it's the other way round. It's so cool to see that the game has such good graphics, action and storyline that they made this into an entire series and even brought a sequel. I don't want to give any spoilers for the story, so I'd just say that you have to experience it first hand while keeping in mind that the game was made in 2013.
    The roster of this game is also huge. There are the fan favourites who have their original costumes and can also be given costumes from some of their most popular media appearance, like Superman has Man of Steel's costume and Batman has Arkham Asylum's costume. Then there are also the unpopular characters whom I got to learn about from this game. Shazam, who hadn't received a movie at the time, was given a big role here. There were also characters like Nightwing, Lobo, Firestorm and even Harley Quinn, about whom I learnt from this game. My personal favourite character in the game is Green Lantern with his Yellow Lantern suit on. He looks so good!
    Injustice is the phenomenon which, when compared against Marvel's Avengers, explains why DC completely dominates over Marvel in gaming even though Marvel's Avengers came 7 years after. And I'd prefer it stays that way. I'd any day choose this cool thing over that family park adventure. I really hope they make a third game. It would bring justice to Injustice.    … Expand

    Really exciting fighting game that creates a unique DC universe and tells a very unique story. Gameplay is solid, would recommend to casual fighting game fans.

    game is worse than MK. i like the idea to make fighting with DC characters, but overall realisation is not ideal, plot is bad, control too, but cutscenes is ok

    Story is good even if the plot becomes boring and predictable over time and that it indecently justifies the fact that two identical characters fight against each others (thanks 'Super Smash Bros. Brawl' for the idea by the way). This would have been much better if we weren't interrupted from time to time by so-called mini-games without any tutorial nor explanation.

Visually the game is cool without being amazing considering the poor quality of the PC portage (thanks Warner Bros for this mess). I found colours particularly ugly. Characters designs are top notch whatsoever. Skins make them even better.

    Original soundtrack is as terrific as the environment (which is partially destroyable). Animations and overall atmosphere are gorgeous. The fight mode in itself is cool. We can clearly feel that Mortal Kombat inspiration (thanks Ed Boon for this fun fact). Combos and controls are really hard to master especially if, just like me, you are a sickman trying to play 'Injustice' without controller. Yeah I don't know what made me do such a thing. Anyway characters were almost all well-balanced. Well, that was the case if you didn't count that over-powered Superman.

    Multiplayer mode is terrible, players rage-quitting every time, it takes years to find an opponent. Anyway, no one has been playing it in multiplayer mode for five years now. At least the devs thought about adding that 'Lab' mod which allows you to replay levels and to give a try to hardcore challenges.

    The worst part about 'Injustice' is that Warner couldn't stop their greed for money from getting over them and thus releasing this hideous and catastrophic app on Android and iOS (watch the 'trailer' above and you will understand what monster I am currently speaking of). I regret playing this Android game so hard.    … Expand

    I think the story of the game is very good, it is a script adapted from a comic book, I think it has good gameplay, so I liked the game very much, it is one of the games you should play.

    Four hours of story mode, just enough to avoid repetitiveness and fatigue in this kind of games.
    Besides being well written and very interesting.

    *GAMEPLAY*: A good combat system, but sometimes it is not as precise as one might expect.
    In addition, the difficulty is poorly balanced: without modifying the difficulty between fights, some of them can be beaten by a baby and others are impossible by even Bruce Lee.

    *GRAPHICS*: Artistically good, but it was time to renew the graphic aspect for the next videogame of the studio (MKX).

    *SOUND*: Remarkable, the soundtrack passes without glory, but the sound effects and dubbing are perfect.

    *INNOVATION*: Injustice brings back the little used DC characters since PS3/360 generation, bringing a very remarkable 2D combat game.    … Expand

    I was totally stunned, the first time playing Injustice: Gods Among Us! It´s more than just a brawler around the DC universe. It reminds me a bit of Mortal Kombat but with a fresh, never seen environment. What a game!

    Awesome fighting game!

    You can really feel it when you punch an opponent during a match, and there are so many good things about this game which you will discover!

    The only con to me is the storyline, i didn't like it so much.

    This game has been a lot of fun. And it can be very challenging. It's not quite as fluid and smooth as Mortal Kombat. But it is not MK with a Superhero skin. It is its own unique fighting game with unique controls. I've spent many hours playing and do recommend if you enjoy fighting games or the DC universe.

    I am surely not an action game fan, but this game made me realise that action games can be good. With the usable objects, powers(although i dont use many) and nice basic moves, Injustice feels a complete action game. The problems i have are not many, but are significant. The story is magnificient, but it shows that superman is the best and thats not true. The cutscenes can be too long, andI am surely not an action game fan, but this game made me realise that action games can be good.
