This isn’t a joke.
NetherRealm has a big character reveal planned for tomorrow, however some images and early gameplay footage have leaked out online.
You can check out the images which came from Neogaf below. It’s not exactly surprising that The Joker will be a character in the upcoming fighting game sequel, or “Le Joker,” as he is named in the French screenshots.
A version of The Joker did canonically die in the series’ alternate timeline story, but that rarely stops comic book characters from reappearing – going by his face shape, this could well be a new character taking on the Joker mantle.
While we wait for more information on The Joker, you can check out the list of other characters we currently know are coming to the game.
If you’re excited about the game and can’t wait until release day, we’ve also got a guide to Injustice 2’s pre-order bonuses.
Injustice 2 is due out later this year, although a firm release date has not been announced yet. It’s one of IGN’s big games which are coming out in 2017.
