Month: June 2016

Initially leaked on Twitter in a grainy screenshot by CollapseControl, before being corroborated by notable leakers shinobi602, Nibellion and then reported on by Polygon, it seems that Injustice 2 is going to be revealed at E3 next week. The poster shows Batman and the Flash readying for battle with the tagline “Every Battle Defines You” underneath. The posters, according to Polygon, are part of a pre-order scheme for NetherRealm’s comic book fighter, with those who pre-order the game receiving the poster while stocks last.

GameStop stores will be receiving these posters in the near future, probably over the course of the next week when Injustice 2 is officially announced. There have been plenty of rumors circling the web, not helped by Ed Boon changing his profile picture to the Roman numeral for 2, but this seems like the first concrete Injustice 2 leak. Eurogamer has also confirmed the leak, stating that “[their] own sources tell [them] the game is real and is set for an announcement later this week,” suggesting that Injustice 2 may actually be revealed ahead of E3. Ed Boon himself has tweeted about this leak, striking GameStop off his party invitation list, basically confirming that this poster is the real deal.

The poster has no indication of what systems we’ll see Injustice 2 playable on, but it is safe to assume it will be coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

While the King of Fighters XIV will be playable at E3 next week, the event isn’t exactly the best place for the public to get some hands-on time with the game. Luckily, for those in Southern California looking for a chance to try the game, it’s also going to be playable at another venue.

Level Up’s Alex Valle has just announced over Twitter that the King of Fighters XIV will be making a stop on Wednesday Night Fights on June 15–the same week as E3.

Whether or not this will be the same 36-character build that SNK has been touring around Japan is unknown. That said, Valle has stated that more details about the game’s appearance at WNF will be revealed soon.
