Injustice 2 “Legendary Edition” now available to pre-order, to be released March 27

Legends come together in a new, beefier package for Injustice 2.

A new compilation edition — think “game of the year” version — of NetherRealm Studios’ popular comic book-inspired fighter Injustice 2 has finally been confirmed as available, with a release date for march 27, 2018. Best Buy is now offering the Injustice 2 Legendary Edition on their web storefront; you can grab this new release of Injustice 2 for $59.99 USD, either digitally or on disc, for both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

As the updated cover art suggests, this new package includes the DLC characters that have been gradually added to the original base game since launch, and some other goodies. From the store listing:

Features 10 additional characters (including Darkseid), six premiere skins: Power Girl, Reverse-Flash, Grid Cyborg, Jon Stewart Green Lantern, Black Lightning, Bruce Wayne (new), as well as god and demon shaders.

At the time of this writing, Best Buy is the only retailer offering this package, but there is no cause to expect continued exclusivity; an Amazon listing for the digital version of this title briefly appeared earlier before being pulled down (cached version viewable here). It’s a pretty safe bet that this package will be available from numerous sources.

Dragon Ball FighterZ character roundup: What we’ve seen so far for Vegeta (Super Saiyan & SSGSS)

Our own Tournament of Power still has a lot of time left! Keep practicing!

We’ve seen a lot of tech videos for Dragon Ball FighterZ come through our tipline, covering everything from team-building strategy, fundamental game mechanics, and combo after combo after combo, from throughout the game’s cast! Since the roundups were put together based on what came in when, not sorted by character, we’re re-compiling them by fighter to make it easier to find something for your individual team members.

This time, let’s look at what we’ve seen so far for Vegeta (both Super Saiyan and SSGSS versions)!

Brandon Pollard shows off the strength of anchor Vegeta with these Sparking Blast combos.

This time, let’s look at what we’ve seen so far for Beerus!

Sword shows off his own 3-meter 7k combo with the God of Destruction.

Beerus has been one of the least-submitted characters here at SRK and, based off what I’ve seen both here and beyond, I’m not sure why. He has big damage, wild okizeme, and the most smug face this side of West City.

Sukairefurai has some setplay concepts for the God of Destruction.

ApertureBlack has two different examples of the mix-up power of Beerus’s 236S.

rooflemonger put a lot of time into Nappa during the beta, and has some information on how his toolset works:

Every Nappa combo video that shows off multi-saibaman plants in one combo is worth watching. Thanks, Persona Entertainment!

Want to use the mix-up potential of the Saibamen? TGN Anime has a great breakdown of Nappa’s movelist just for you!

This time, let’s look at what we’ve seen so far for Captain Ginyu!

Few have pushed the combos and setups of pre-launch DBFZ the way Clayton “Final Showdown” Chapman has. If you really want to see the full extent of combo possibilities at the moment, these are a great place to start:

These Ginyu mid-screen setups are particularly impressive for the way they still set up Ginyu’s Force without assists.

TGN Anime shows off the moveset of Captain Ginyu (and the Ginyu Force!).

rooflemonger explains the properties of Captain Ginyu’s Ginyu Force.

Ninja demonstrates a powerful glitch involving the meter consumption of Ginyu’s Milky Cannon DHC.

Brian Kasugano has a new and extensive combo video featuring stuff for SSJ Vegeta, Krillin, Frieza, Ginyu, SSGSS Goku, and Piccolo.

Get your squad ready, because everyone on the team is involved in ArcBueno‘s Ginyu combo video.

Y. Xiao sought to recreate his favorite fight!

sikshot gaming shows off some blockstrings you need to be aware of when fighting Cell.
