'Injustice 2' Trailer Leaks Black Adam as New Playable Character
NetherRealm Studios' "Injustice 2" is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated fighting games of 2017. And while a new video shows more of the sequel's plot, it has also revealed a new playable character.
In the latest trailer, Supergirl reveals her side of the story. She leaves her destroyed planet in a separate space pod together with who appears to be an infant Superman. As she grows up, she develops a firm sense of justice and compassion, so much that she is able to stand steadfast and relentless against anyone.
While the focus revolves around her, the teaser also showed someone whom everyone got excited to see — Black Adam. He appears out of nowhere and does combat against Supergirl, showing the extent of his powers by sending her hurling toward a pyramid and striking her down with a bolt of lightning.

With fans still waiting, it won't be a surprise if they are merely preparing things for the mentioned characters to be included. For now, Black Adam's appearance is a welcome addition.
"Injustice 2" arrives on PlayStation 4 (PS4) and Xbox One platforms on May 16, 2017.
