- The voice actors of Superman and Green Lantern have confirmed that they’re recording their lines for Injustice 3.
- A dataminer also previously revealed that Injustice 3 is under development.
- Expect a 2028 release date for the game, as it is speculated to be in very early development.
NetherRealm Studios’ attempt to reboot the Mortal Kombat franchise wasn’t quite the outcome they expected. With a mediocre reception, support for Mortal Kombat 1 ended earlier this year, just under 2 years after its release.
Now, the studio is retreating to its other big franchise, Injustice. Voice actors for Superman and Green Lantern have confirmed that Injustice 3 is in the works.
Why it matters: The Injustice series is hailed as one of the best fighting games due to its rich lore and gritty take on DC superheroes. For the franchise to return after an 8-year hiatus is a treat for fans.
Over on X (formerly Twitter), one fan revealed that he had the opportunity to meet Phil LaMaar, the voice behind Green Lantern, at the recent Nostalgia Con in Houston. While signing the fan’s Injustice steelbook, the voice actor told him that they’re working on a third Injustice game.
Similarly, another fan posted on X that he met George Newbern, the voice behind Superman, and praised his work, especially for Multiversus, despite the game being canceled. In response to that comment, Newbern revealed to the fan that he’s recording voice lines for Injustice 3.
All the previous cast are set to return, but unfortunately, since the passing of Kevin Conroy, Batman will be recast. As such, Roger Craig Smith seems the obvious choice as the new voice for the Dark Knight.
Previously, a dataminer leaked that an Injustice 3 is indeed in the works. Furthermore, NetherRealm Studios has also expressed interest in revisiting the franchise after Mortal Kombat 1, especially since it has been so long since the last entry.
Still, don’t expect the game to release soon. With Mortal Kombat 1 released in 2023, Injustice 3’s development likely began in 2024 at the earliest. As such, expect a few years of development, followed by a release date of 2028.
