7 Ways Injustice 2 Raises The Bar For Fighting Games
7. Customisable Costumes
Leveling up a character by adding on armor is a welcome feature to Injustice, as loadouts are typically only seen in games like Call of Duty or World of Warcraft.
Incorporating it into a fighting game is a pioneer move, because this now allows you to have various setups depending of what kind of a gamer you are. For fighting games, fans tend to fall into two categories; offensive or defensive.
For example, for a character you might have a loadout with armor that boosts defensive and health stats to play on the defensive front. On the other side, for that same character you can also have another loadout that focuses on strength and ability. The careful pairing of armor and characters can be the decisive factor in winning or losing a match - something no other fighting game is able to say.
There are also armor accessories that help acquire XP faster, levelling up both your character and your profile. This is sure to be a popular option for gamers looking to get new gear, as the more you level up, the more items you're rewarded.
In addition to this, the color palette of costumes can be changed on the fly, making them look uniquely tailored to suit every fighter’s taste. The attention to detail is staggering, as each costume pays tribute to famous comic book stories providing fan service all around.
