Injustice 2 set a new precedent for fighting game design when it released last year. Though it lacks much of the complexity attributed to tournament fighters like Street Fighter V or Tekken 7, NetherRealm Studio’s latest one-upped the competition in several departments. Its accessibility is a testament to its user-friendly design and it offers a level of polish in its presentation that is unparalleled in the genre. And it could mean great things for a new Mortal Kombat

You can’t spell Mortal Kombat without Raiden and a brain concussion, and it looks like the same might be true for Injustice 2 as EarthRealm’s protective deity is headed to this year’s best fighting game.
