Who would win in a fight, Batman or Swamp Thing? It all comes down to who’s holding the controller, of course. And you’ll be able to find out for yourself on May 16, when Injustice 2 launches on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
The sequel to 2013’s Injustice: Gods Among Us, Injustice 2 is a fighting game that pits DC superheroes and villains against one another. For all the information you need about the game, be sure to check out our great IGN First content, including a whole heap of videos that show off the super moves and dive into some of the new characters.
If you’ve already decided to thrown down your cash to pick up Injustice 2, you’re probably wondering which version you should get, and which retailers offer preorder bonuses. You’ve come to the right place.
There’s a standard $60 edition of the game, of course, that gives you the game and nothing else. But if you want a little extra superhero action in your life, you have a couple of choices.

Defender shader pack, which lets you customize the look of your fighters
