Injustice 2 Reviews

by Hosea Mathews

This game is not at all good. It’s pay to win compared to the other mobile games where they at least gave to in a chance to unlock a certain character by doing their easy but tedious tower but this game is a fat no. They are now replaced by these battles where you need 160 shards to even unlock a character and use them. And they are super hard. Playing the arena is useless you have to spent some good time if you want to get a high rank and the story is pointless if you could play it on pc/console. What happened to just buying a pack and unlocking a character or upgrading them. now when you buy packs you get shards Instead of the card and need to buy more than 1 pack if you want to get a character as now you get shards as I just said. In mk mobile you would buy a pack a get whatever card you saw right away, online/arena was fun and felt rewarding and the tower all a bit to tedious could be done by a baby. You see what I am trying to say here, they went back instead of forward. AND DON’T let me mention that most packs will give you a sliver shards rather than gold so you pretty much out of choices. Whatever Pack you buy there is like a 95 chance you get a sliver. It’s like being at a casino and that’s not fun at all. Overall bad game the other two which are injustice 1 and mk mobile are 10x better. Go play those and don’t waste your time here like I did.

I played injustice Gods Among Us and loved the game, grinding and earning great characters. Injustice 2 came out and I was stoked. I loved everything about it, the gameplay, the graphics, and was a committed fan, logging in and playing every day. I had been free to play up to this point and decided to show the developers some thanks for such a great game by spending $20 on a growth pack to get gems. The purchase went through and I received my gems, immediately followed by an error message afterwards effectively banning me from my account. Forever. For some reason I guess the developers assumed that the amount of gems I received from the growth pack that THEY made was fraudulent, and thought I was hacking, so my account was banned. All that work put into making a solid roster, and I would have been forced to create a new account and start all over again, all for simply spending money on their game and receiving those gems that I PAYED for, 100% legitimately. So I deleted the game off my phone, because why would I want to restart after all the progress that I made? And who knows, even if I did end up getting another strong roster, if I decided to spend money on their game again to get gems legitimately, who’s to say that my new account won’t get banned too? Oh and by the way, I never got a refund. Thanks WB games.

I’ve been playing this game regularly (nearly every day) since it first came out and enjoyed it immensely. The latest update, however, was a fail of epic proportions. They have completely ruined gameplay with random tag-ins occurring during all game phases. The implementation of new raid levels was completely botched - not only poorly thought out with boss HP on the next level 10x higher than the previously highest level, but also including bugs so that defeating any boss in battle results in “battle error” where the damage is not recorded, thus the bosses are literally impossible to defeat. Also, the “tweaks” introduced to the champions arena have completely destroyed the fun in that aspect of the game. It was already a good and difficult challenge to defeat 3 of an opponent’s teams consecutively using only one of your own teams, achievable only with a very high threat level and even then only with a select few pairings of characters. Buffing the opponents’ HP and attack values so much has all but eliminated the chances of defeating three consecutive teams, and thus has essentially eliminated what was an enjoyable aspect of the game. Moreover, the changes to computer-controlled “AI” characters now allows them to routinely complete moves that a human-controlled character simply cannot.

This game was in dire need of a long-awaited update. Sadly, this update has ruined the game. I, for one, will not be playing anymore until this disaster is fixed.

Let’s see where does one begin on INJ2 Mobile. Well let’s start from the beginning. I remember when Injustice2 was launching. Everyone was super excited and back then the game was FUN. Nowadays the game is filled with bugs, lies, & cash offers pertained to the individual playing the game through data collecting. Which also makes game play sluggish if not on fiber optic internet. The developers have altered the games AI so much it contradicts the developers own exploiting rules in which they have kick people by the thousands for using glitches they were to lazy to correct. It’s bad for you to exploit a glitch, but in order for the developer to make money it’s perfectly legal and acceptable for the games AI to override you controls and to dismiss your characters special abilities in order for a win in hopes your will spend money on more items to continue game play. The game is a bust now and a hack into your bank account. You would be better off doing a search for COD mobile & downloading that instead. But hey your your life and your money feel free to try it. Just don’t get sucked in by nether realms offers & promotions. It’s just like your drug dealer. There more then happy to give you a taste, but if you want more in will cost you a lot more then you get in return. I give INJ2 1 star for being able to take some of my money before I opened my eyes to there deceptions.

Such a stupid game you can spend a thousand dollars on gems and still not unlock any legendarys the chests are all rigged to have a drop rate of 1% so your odds of getting something good are nothing at all there’s no point playing this game seeing how you barely unlock gems and that’s the main way to unlocking legendarys don’t even get me started on the online battles that you lose your place in right before the timer ends so you don’t end up getting your 160 shards and have to wait for the character to come back around it’s basically impossible to get anything good in this game without spending $ and even if you do want to support the game and give it the 20$ for a few gems in return you get nothing shards of characters that are garbage and you most likely already have and it only gives you a few so you waste your money I once spent 50$ on a good deal in special offers for gems and didn’t get a single 3 start character from any of the cheats that I opened makes you not even want to play when you pay a decent amount on a phone game and at the end of it all you go home with nothing wouldn’t buy this stick with mortal kombat or some other game that isn’t pay to play or pay to get anything I love the fighting style and graphics in this game too so I’m not hating it but they ruined it with it being pay to play

Look... this game has a lot of potential. There are so many ways to play, so many different challenges to explore, and so many ways to find satisfaction. My problem with the game is how difficult it has become to grow your roster in the game without spending ridiculous amounts of money.

The “in app purchases” are totally beyond reasonable. Who (in their right mind) would spend anywhere between $30 and $100 to unlock a character in a “mobile” game (yes... those prices are legit what they charge and this is not a console game)? And who (also in their right mind) would spend between $10 and $40 to unlock gear or artifacts to enhance a character? What’s worse, is even at those prices, there’s no guarantee you’ll get the best gear or artifacts... you’re paying for a “chance” to get something that could be awesome. Trust me though... that chance is very small (like less than 3%). WB should be ashamed of being paired with these developers!

For real though (to the developers)... how much more money do you think you’d make if you had thousands (if not millions) of people shelling out $2-$5 for these characters/gears/artifacts compared to the few that shell out a week’s salary under the current system? It’s simple economics, you greedy slime!

I really enjoyed the game when I first started playing it because it was fair. If I lost I accepted it because either A, the teams threat was to much for my team to handle or B, because I wasn’t good enough. At this point I’ve been playing this game for around 2 months and am fairly far into it. The only reason I lose now is because the game ignores its own rules it made and will somehow take out my entire team because I pressed a ability or tried to tag in my character and it takes about 10 seconds to do so. PLEASE fix this injustice it’s ruining the game for me. This isn’t the only problem though. I will lose a bunch of matches because when the other team is about to lose they end up interrupting my combo or delaying my special moves and therefore giving the opponent a chance to attack me and they do and end up taking all three of my character out in about 5 seconds. And let me remind you that no matter what you do you the player CAN NOT do that as well. So basically I’m led to believe that injustice purposely makes you lose games by not activating your ability when you press it, not registering your moves or even interrupting your combos. Who knows why this is a feature and why it had reminded ever since they released the game but please start working and fixing this. Makes the game very unenjoyable and discourages me to get on next time.

I would love to give this game 5 stars- I enjoy the graphics, challenges, raids and collecting characters. I have some major problems with the cost of characters and gems as well as the supposed Premium or special character chests. First of all, one character shouldn’t cost $30+! Some of the characters cost more than an entire PlayStation or Xbox game!! The cost of the gems would be slightly more worth it if when you paid extra gems for better chests you would get the better characters but this does not happen. It’s a solid 9 out of 10 times that when I try to get a premium character out of a more expensive chest with a supposed “increased chance of gold characters” it turns out to be a silver and, on top of that, is most often a character I already have. I would love to see the creators of the game make some changes to justify the prices they are trying to charge people because honestly they are taking advantage of people right now. I will continue to play the game on the “free” (I have spent $5 on Wonder Woman, who was a way more reasonable price as well as the 1st pack for additional gems. However, I have tried to open multiple chests with the money I spent on the additional gems on “premium chests and have gotten 0 premium characters so honestly it wasn’t worth it) until they make some changes.

The game is honestly addicting and super fun but the guts of the game can’t seem to keep up. Whether I’m on WiFi or full bars of service there’s still always a massive lag with fighting and I continuously have a problem with equipping an unequiping items. Now I know it can’t be my phone because I have the 12 pro max, so I think it would be very useful to be able to control the quality the game try’s to put out such as being able to turn down the graphics and more advanced options. Also, the game is very expensive. Alittle to expensive for my taste and doesn’t seem to really reward such behaviors to honestly. I’ve spent upwards of $30 in trying to open cases and what they deem as “special offers” but have gotten the same basic characters multiple times in a row. Now yes this can be looked at as a positive thing but at the same time is a big setback for me, only because why would I want to toss more money into the game if all I’m going to get back is the same thing back to back to back. Other games I’ve played give alittle more love to the dollar bill where in this case, $60+ is most likely the only way you’ll get something worth fighting for and that’s the same price as a full game on a real system which has a full story/ campaign mode and I also don’t have to constantly refresh or restart my game in order to get past the game lagging or freezing.

I love this game and I want to see it succeed, but I’m worried that the developers don’t care where the mobile game goes.
There have been numerous complaints since the first version of the game! So many bugs and glitches that it made the game unplayable for others. In the past I bought a offer but I never got the in game loot. I didn’t think I got charged because it said error so I did so many times I got charged 200 dollars. We ended up getting about 2/3rds of the money back. So you thought I must have learned my lesson by now... well I didn’t.
Recently I bought this booster pack for reaching level 40. As soon as I purchased it I got a error and I got booted from the game. I have been unable to login since then. I don’t even know if I received my in game loot and I’m ineligible to receive a refund according to apple. I have contacted customer service and it’s been 3 days and I have received no words.
I love this game and I want it to go places, but currently it’s lost my trust. I wouldn’t recommend Injustice 2 because what’s the point of playing if your unable to play it again after a while. Please fix these bugs so its playable for others and developers if you are reading this please help me out with my situation!

I’ve been playing this game for a while, and although it’s a fun way to pass time, Injustice 2 has some pretty annoying flaws. The main problem for me is the Story Mode. It’s not the actual story (that’s one of the best parts of the game) that’s frustrating, but rather the difficulty of the fights in it. They range from being decently difficult to rip-out-your-hair difficult. An example of the latter would be the Green Lantern fight in Chapter 4. Another annoying feature is the difficulty of getting a good character from chests. Nearly every time you open a chest in Injustice 2, it’ll contain nothing but a silver/basic-level character. Speaking of the chests, it’s also quite hard to find the currency you need to buy one unless you pay a ton of money. Finally, a rather small qualm: Harley Quinn is probably has the most annoying voice in the whole entire freaking universe! This isn’t just a review to try and trash the game, though- the graphics for a mobile game are great, the fighting mechanics are simple and easy to use and there’s an abundance of cool characters from the comics to obtain. The arena mode is a nifty feature as well. Oh, and did I mention that there’s Mortal Combat fighters? Overall, Injustice 2 is a decent game for DC fans, but unless the problems listed above are fixed, I think it only deserves three out of five stars.

This game is great however, in game progression is so painfully slow. You’ll end up having to grind levels over and over just to get better gear items, which are %85-%90 RNG. The campaign has some cringe and simplistic dialogue even though the graphics are very good looking for a mobile game. Then when you get to mid/ late game you’ll be stuck either grind a lot or hitting a “pay wall”. The PvP is a pain, due to encountering many pay to win players time and time again. I would suggest to the developers to maybe improve matchmaking quality. And possibly make earlier levels more “beginner friendly”. That aside, it’s a ok game. It also pisses me off how notifications keep popping up constantly reminding you to buy “the latest challenge pack” which kind of defeats the purpose of doing the challenges to only gain 1 hero.
When instead you could only pour a lot of money into the game for fast progression. Also the Winning/Spending ratio seems way off. What do I mean by that you ask?. What I mean is that what you earn is way to little and the “packs” or “bundles” cost way too much. So bottom line, I would suggest an economy rework, with some minor tweaking in the campaign.
I hope this review was helpful and I ask the developers not to take this criticism in a bad way. I just hope they read this so they’ll be able to make the game more fair and fun for everyone to enjoy. :)

Ok NR if you want to up the character level to 80 then up the rewards system. Sure I know it’s not suppose to be easy to achieve that level but seriously it’s very hard to even have the orbs to get one character beyond level 70. I have been playing for nearly 2 years not even close to getting the orbs even for leveling a average character beyond 70. The level 7 XP capsule is a nice touch to build XP but why not offer to buy a level 7 capsule in the league store even if it costs more league credits? And your reward system for league raids is abysmal at best. The difference of rewards from raid 6 to 7 is a compete embarrassment!! Even if a league member that places first in raid 7 the reward can be just trash. Up your rewards for the hard work people put in to these time consuming raids. I barely find the rewards for Raid 7 hardly better than Raid 6 despite bosses having 10X more health. Where is the payoff for a Raid that we work that much harder for? I am not saying reward the high profile characters shards and gear out like it’s nothing but at least make it a real possibility to get something great even if it’s rare to win it. The Firestorm gear for placing high in R7 is getting stale at best. Please up the rewards for the loyal players who have stuck with this game to keep playing. Because as of now it feels more of a chore than fun anymore.

I play this game a lot but you make the mistake thinking the players input isn’t as good or better than your teams. I sent you emails and made multiple reviews here. Besides trying to bankrupt the players you’re making them not want to play as much. The rewards are terrible in the league and arena. They never change just like the chapters should change characters and go from chapters 9-16. It’s nearly impossible to get the top characters without wasting money. If we do get the characters then we can’t get the gear. If we get gear then we can’t get shards. I’ve had darkseid since I started the game 7 months ago and I only got 100 shards. Legendary characters are way too hard and takes way too long to get. Stop putting them in chest with gold and silver characters. We want a all legendary chests. We want legendary characters in the stores. We want the same characters to have different supermoves. And we want new characters period. Why come it’s Triple the characters on console. They should be on mobile. Shouldn’t be that big of a difference with the same game. You really need to put out a suggestion box so the people that play the game can help you make it better unless injustice 3 is coming soon. Only excuse that would be acceptable. Please read it or I’ll be back with my league members all writing reviews. Thanks

I have been playing the game for about 2 months now and I love it. I play everyday and I play just about every game mode they have and I grind for the gems by completing objectives and other things. Here is the one big problem I find with the game. I save up all of my gems and then I buy a premium hero chest or a more expensive chest in the hopes of a gold card. I have opened dozens of these chests and at this point I don’t hope for a good gold I just hope for anything better than some trash silver that I pull every time. Like I said I have been playing this game for 2 months but I have only pulled 4 golds and I have opened probably around 20 or so PREMIUM chests or better. The better chest have a higher chance at a gold (so they say) but at least you get a 2 star character or better. Now I open these hoping to get some cools gold card or something but without fail I pull a swamp thing every time. That is my one problem with this game but other than that it is a great game. I would recommend playing it and maybe you will have more luck than me. I also think that the developers should add a chest for like 500 plus gems or something like that that guarantees a gold card of some kind. Like it could be a 2 star or it could be better. But yeah that is my one problem with the game.

by Pretty Good Game But...

I’ve been playing this game for about a year now and it’s pretty good game. There’s lots to do and there are plenty of games to go into besides the campaign games or story mode. The graphics are pretty great, and so are the characters but I do have one or two problems. They only problem I have with this game is the fact that it takes pretty long time to collect gems and it takes forever to collect the shards. I usually collect the gems so I can unlock characters but lately I can’t even do that. It takes so much of your gems just to unlock one character, and when you don’t get a new character it just adds on to the character you already have and most of the time it’s a character you don’t even use like that. Also it gets pretty pricey to level up the characters on hand, my best team right now is a little over 45,000 I believe and on the campaign mode I’m stuck on aqua man which the team is on 75,000 or something like that and I try to level them up but it takes forever and it takes a lot of your coins. Also the story mode it only went up to 8 chapters and that was it, I know the story doesn’t stop there so what’s the hold up on the other chapters? Ok ok maybe it wasn’t just one or two complaints but I hope you get the idea. But overall it’s a pretty good game I still play it almost every day or when I can. So do not decide to not download this game because of me trust me it’s worth it.

First I just wanna say how much I love this game, I’ve been playing it I think since the first month or 2 after it came out and have always loved it, I’ve been at the max player level for awhile now and I still love playing it especially with the new content always being added. The reason I leave 4 stars instead of 5 is the skew of power rating in the characters. I understand the games like these with the options to buy more powerful characters will always give those who spend money on the game an advantage, I’m fine with that, and this is not about that by itself and I’ve spent a lot of money on the game myself. However it’s so frustrating that the characters you usually have to buy are always waaaaaaaay more powerful than what their “power levels” are. I’m fine with them being more powerful but just let them be labeled as such, it’s ridiculous how often a character with 90k threat quickly and easily annihilates a character with 270k threat. I’ve been on both sides of that like every time I play virtually and whether it’s in my favor or not it’s still annoying, if a character is super powerful than their “threat level” should reflect that, I think we all understand that if we give the game money we get stronger characters, just let the threat levels reflect that ffs.

by TendoFan

I just had to write a review for this. Since I’m here I might as well give my thoughts though, so here they are. This is actually a pretty great mobile fighting game! I haven’t played many fighting games on mobile, but I can definitely say this game nails most the areas that Contest of Champions is lacking in. The addition of a story mode (alongside the campaign) is a great way to kill some time and introduce you to the game. Campaign on its own is fun. The gameplay is waaay better than Contest of Champions, since it handles the attack system a bit differently, making the combos really satisfying to pull off. I just have a small problem with the game that, while petty, will keep me from giving it five stars...and it’s registering the Mortal Kombat representation in the game. Specifically, the blatant lack of a playable Scorpion. While the game is fun on it’s own, he’s the whole reason I bought the game in the first place. I’m pretty sure he used to be in this game, or at least the first Injustice on mobile...so why is he now absent? It feels weird seeing Sub Zero and Raiden, but no Scorpion...seriously, I would pay money for this character. I don’t know why he isn’t in the game as of now, but it just feels like he should be in the game. Think of how Jump Force launched without a rematch option. (It still doesn’t have one....)

Anyway, great game. Still can’t give it five stars until I see Scorpion though.

by Robulicious

I’m a relative newb to this game, as I’ve only been playing solidly for a month. And after a month here are my thoughts. For a free mobile fighting game the graphics, story, campaign, and overall fights are fun. However, what I have noticed is once you start developing your characters, things start to cost more. For instance fighting a normal heroic battle costs 7 energy. Fighting the main boss costs 12, but at about account level 15 or so that only gets you about 65-70 total energy for about an 8 hour period. Then when you get to a boss in a campaign you are not even guaranteed shards for that boss for a win! Or another example is the gold character challenges that are offered, you can reasonably fight the level 1 challenge with a few characters that you haven’t spent time, money and effort leveling up. But then level 2 challenge requires a threat level of 50k plus to even have a chance. Arena events are similar. But when you aren’t paying money to play you have no real shot at unlocking characters that you want or even ones you don’t. And there are only characters that can be unlocked if either you have been playing them forever or you have a ton of money to spend. How about instead of making everything cost so much offer a season pass that lets you unlock characters, or add them to campaigns or something to that effect. Overall a good game if you want to pass time.

I am a bit unusual. This is the 3 rd time that I have picked up this game after quitting twice before. At the beginning, I got lucky and got an Arkham knight. I loved the game, but after a game refresh, I couldn’t download the game for 2 days. I deleted Injustice2 and tried reloading Injustice2 thinking that it was a glitch. I lost all of my characters and was so mad that I quit. I came back a year later and felt like it was so painful rebuilding and feeling that all of my opponents were overpowered so I quit again. I’m back and loving the game. I have figured out that there is a lot of strategy in the game and it’s helped to build up my team a lot. I pretty much just play this game now since much of the strategy in the arena is build Your team by playing them a lot. I wish that we could convert excess character shards to other character shards even at a reduced conversion rate or converting them back to gems or something useful. It’s a frustrating waste when you spend gems and get useless shards. Keep up the great work!
