Red Lantern Atrocitus
-
Aquaman
-
Supergirl
As for who's next in line to join the game, Boon heavily teased to the SDCC crowd that Red Hood and a few members from the Suicide Squad are strong candidates to appear and not as NPCs. There was also a quick shot of a menu screen which revealed that Injustice 2 may have as many as 28 playable characters! Boon also stated that ie's likey another Mortal Kombat character will have a guest spot in Injustice 2, just not everyone's flamethrowing skeleton. "
It probably won’t be Scorpion, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see another Mortal Kombat character as a guest in Injustice 2."
At the conclusion of the panel, the team revealed that the next big reveal will come at Gamescom in Germany. They also left the audience to ponder the news that even more DC Comics characters are slated to appear through costume changes, i.e. Supergirl can be changed to Power Girl via new threads. It was also confirmed that despite Bryan Cranston's voice-over in the debut trailer, he doesn't voice any characters in the game.
