Warner Bros. Interactive and DC Entertainment announced today that they will be releasing a new fighting game for all major consoles, including the Wii U, in 2013. Injustice: Gods Among us, is a bold new fighting franchise, which introduces a deep, original story featuring a large cast of favourite DC Comics icons including Batman, Harley Quinn, Solomon Grundy, Superman, The Flash, Wonder Woman and many more. The game is set in a world where the lines between good and evil are blurred, and where players get to experience heroes and villains engaged in epic battles on a massive scale.

“With Injustice: Gods Among Us, we are creating an all-new franchise with incredible battles set in the DC Comics Universe,” said Martin Tremblay, President, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “NetherRealm Studios is the extremely talented team behind the latest Mortal Kombat hit and it is developing a game unlike any other in the fighting genre.”

This just might be Mortal Kombat vs. DC, except without the suck. I wasn't a kid raised on comic books, but somethin' tells me a fighting game like this would be in high demand among such fans. Hopefully they make a good game.

Not that NetherRealm Studios has lived up to it's Midway roots yet...
