VIDEO GAMES: Green Arrow Announced For INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US

With CW's Arrow only a day away from its premiere, it should come as no surprise that Green Arrow was just announced to join DC's stable of playable characters in Injustice: Gods Among Us.

News has been pretty slow on the Injustice: Gods Among Us front. Recently it was announced that there will be a collectors edition for the game, but other than that relatively quiet. Now, thanks to Entertainment Weekly, we have confirmation that the Emerald Archer himself Green Arrow will be making an appearance. There is no embed for his trailer at the moment so click the image below to check it out!



You can pick up Injustice: God Among Us when it hits stores April of next year.

i dont like the costume.....
they should have gone with something similar to the new 52.... it would have been badass....
PsyBoy - 10/9/2012, 8:02 AM
well this makes sense.
PsyBoy - 10/9/2012, 8:02 AM
minus the terrible costume.
MrBrown1127 - 10/9/2012, 8:03 AM
Idk about this game •_____•
thatdylhooper - 10/9/2012, 8:04 AM
Fifth!!!
jessepostal - 10/9/2012, 8:06 AM
I'm sure you will have 5 different costume choices like all of there other games
MisterMagurlypse - 10/9/2012, 8:08 AM
Looks good. A nice addition to the game.
BruceLeroy - 10/9/2012, 8:09 AM
Just in time for the Arrow premiere.
Christuffer - 10/9/2012, 8:18 AM
I like his fighting style. Very similar to Hawkeye in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. I'm very good with Hawkeye.
MisterMagurlypse - 10/9/2012, 8:22 AM
He looks like he's gonna be an awesome combo player. Me like a good combo. Especially against those pesky teleporters.
Christuffer - 10/9/2012, 8:42 AM
@Splenda - Yeah I hear ya. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing The Joker here, but yeah...another Batman character.

On a serious note, Netherealm could also probably land the Watchmen. I say....Rorschach should be a downloadable character. Or Ozymandias. That would be badassery
Crossbones - 10/9/2012, 8:45 AM
I am so pumped for this game. I think I'm pretty good at fighting games, they're my best genre. I abosultely love that Netherrealm Studios is making this game, so pumped for it. I can't wait. I even have The Flash and Soloman Grundy as my facebook cover. I'm going to pre-order the collectors edition. Can't wait to kick ass as The Flash, he's the best DC character in my opinion.
DC4everLantern - 10/9/2012, 8:52 AM
Awesome Awesome Awesome Awesome !!! :D I can piss in my pants so happy i am. Best News today. This is so frickin AWWWEEESSOOMME !!! Cant wait.
DCjohnny - 10/9/2012, 8:56 AM
every character's costume in this game looks awesome except this one .... i might have to change the costume(if there is any) when i am playing as green arrow....
Facade - 10/9/2012, 9:07 AM
Dumbest game of the year award!
BackwardGalaxy - 10/9/2012, 9:09 AM
What's wrong with this costume now?
Facade - 10/9/2012, 9:12 AM
Just to clarify: Batman shouldn't be able to kick ANYONE through a wall (let alone one that's 20 stories from the ground), because he isn't super powered. Ever!
ArtisticErotic - 10/9/2012, 9:25 AM
Awesome.
Sanderman - 10/9/2012, 9:31 AM
@fartypants yea but he's kicking a superpowered person through the wall..maybe its their body that breaks it? amirite!?

i agree with many of you that say they need more non batman characters. i still think they should've but bane over harley quinn
jimpinto24 - 10/9/2012, 9:38 AM
Love it!!! Green Arrow is one of my favorite characters!
OdinsBeard - 10/9/2012, 9:59 AM
robin who???

green arrow bitches!
OdinsBeard - 10/9/2012, 10:00 AM
cipher@ thats like me playing MvC3. i love playing because the characters are sweet. but man do i suck at those capcom style fighting games lol.
Boogie138 - 10/9/2012, 10:01 AM
yeah, don't think i'll be using a whole lot of peeps other than GA now that he is on the roster. people can hate costume all they want, its a fighting game! who cares? we should all be used to costumes being way dif in adapted media.

and for the record, i think this look fits the character and the style of the game
Tony93 - 10/9/2012, 10:12 AM
Damn I Hope they keep the golden age of thier costumes as variant.. Or the old school costumes.. Those would be great to play in
Dedpool - 10/9/2012, 10:13 AM
Interesting. Like the medeivel influence but looks gawdy for him. Then again so does Flash's armor here!
Tony93 - 10/9/2012, 10:16 AM
I haven't had cable now for months I'm currently installing Direct tv just in time for this but most importantly THE WALKING DEAD
chujong - 10/9/2012, 10:54 AM
Man, that looks awesome! I love all of his combos.
Tony93 - 10/9/2012, 11:06 AM
*Arrow I meant
OtakuPapi - 10/9/2012, 11:10 AM
Robin Arrow
BlackFlash - 10/9/2012, 11:40 AM
The only thing I like is the Bow with the dagger attached.
TheSoulEater - 10/9/2012, 11:43 AM
Know what? I take it back, ARROW's costume for the CW looks FANTASTIC
Greenlantern1417 - 10/9/2012, 11:56 AM
Once again, DC shows there is no continuity with any property they have. Everything seems to stand on its own in some other elseworld.
marvelmaniaco - 10/9/2012, 12:08 PM
Green arrow ftw!!! All we need now are aquaman, martian manhunter, black Adam, captain atom and blue beetle!!!
dnno1 - 10/9/2012, 12:22 PM
@dcjohnny, this is not really New 52, but it's own universe (NetherRealm). The GA costume is appealing to fans of this game:



so it makes sense that they tailor his costume to look like an assassin since it might attract fans from that genre.
Darthzilla - 10/9/2012, 2:01 PM
@MarvelWeiner Because baggy pants?
dezdigi - 10/9/2012, 2:44 PM
That video was badass. Yeah, the costume is a little bulky but, overall, I like the design.
Now we just need about 10-12 more characters and we got a game!
dezdigi - 10/9/2012, 2:45 PM
I hope a new villian is announced next!
Battabing - 10/9/2012, 3:02 PM
Has anyone seen the Red Son Special Edition of this game? It's features a story element from Mark Millar's miniseries with Red Son skins for Superman, Wonder Woman, and Grundy.

Go here: http://testyourmight.com/threads/inj...7/#post-546952

I'm surprised no one here has put it up.
Battabing - 10/9/2012, 3:04 PM
The Red Son storyline also has 20 ADDITIONAL MISSIONS!
I wonder how big this story is gonna be!
CeltiC527 - 10/9/2012, 4:29 PM
Awesome!!!! Ed Boon also confirmed on twitter that two more characters will be revealed tomorrow. Hopefully it's Green Lantern and Aquaman!
GUNGRAVE1 - 10/9/2012, 4:32 PM
THIS GAME SHOULD BE OPEN WORLD MOVE AROUND IN IT.
mrHJK - 10/9/2012, 4:41 PM
Weird costume choice.. And Arrow looks like he's 80..
Battabing - 10/9/2012, 4:49 PM
Joker officially comes back tomorrow in the comics. I bet he's gonna be revealed tomorrow.
mgeoff88 - 10/9/2012, 6:56 PM
Hell Yeah! I'm glad Green Arrow is in the game! I'm not digging his costume though.

He looks more like Robin Hood than the Emerald Archer.
Darthzilla - 10/9/2012, 7:21 PM
@Battabing

You're right, along with Green Lantern.
ThePowerCosmic - 10/9/2012, 7:22 PM
Not into his look. They are over thinking the characters designs in this game. Batman looks terrible...Like something out of a Joel Schumacher Batman film.
Darthzilla - 10/9/2012, 7:53 PM
@ThePowerCosmic

Dude, Batman looks way more like something out of TDKT. It looks nothing like a Schumacher Batman movie.
Netman0007 - 10/10/2012, 1:36 AM
WHA-? No armor? Gee! What is the world coming to?
dnno1 - 10/11/2012, 11:28 AM


Looks like the next two are Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) and The Joker.
