Every Major 2017 Video Game - Ranked By Anticipation

11. Injustice II

There's something about Injustice II that feels just a tad 'off', but when the developers putting it together are the legendary NetherRealm, hopefully any fears of it being too much of the same can be allayed.

So far we've seen more CG trailers than in-depth gameplay ones, but combat is a solid continuation of the original's wall-breaking, environment-hopping aesthetic, coming complete with the aforementioned addition of armoured variants for each character. You'll fight to unlock more pieces for your favourite hero, and therein lies the potential for microtransactions.

With the DCEU on the back foot and 2017 really being the year it either licks its wounds or stays down for good, Injustice II could be instrumental in restoring faith in the off-page DC brand overall.
