Yes, Darkseid appeared briefly involved in Injustice and was even a playable character in the mobile version of the game, but any sequel is crying out for this superpowered villain to take centre-stage. After debuting back in 1970, Darkseid has gone on to become a major thorn in the side of Superman, the Justice League, and the entire DC Universe.
In a world of ridiculous powers and superheroes and villains, Darkseid is one of the most powerful forces out there. Essentially immortal and invincible, this embodiment of pure evil has super strength, super endurance, a near-unmatched IQ, and the Omega Force which allows him to fire energy blasts and even teleport objects. Quite the impressive collection of powers, no?
From the planet of Apokolips and often known as the God of Evil, Darkseids inclusion in Injustice 2 is a must and hopefully a given.
So which DC characters would you like to see featured in Injustice 2? Would you perhaps even like to see more inclusions from the Mortal Kombat world? Share your opinions below.
