Earlier this week, NetherRealm announced that Black Canary is joining the roster for fighting game sequel Injustice 2. Now, the developer has confirmed that it won’t be long until we learn the next character.
A post on the game’s website (via DualShockers) confirms that the next character will be revealed on Tuesday, February 7. This could come in the form a gameplay trailer, as was the case with Robin.
In other Injustice 2 news, NetherRealm boss Ed Boon has confirmed that the third wave of codes for the ongoing beta are going out soon. He said he wishes everyone could get into the beta, but explained that this is not likely to happen.
However … all is not lost….I managed to get a handful of codes (PS4 & X1) that I’ll give out this weekend.

We really wish we could give everyone a code for the Injustice 2 Beta, but it is a limited Beta & we need to continue to test/monitor.

“@REKarnage @noobde How about you just make the Beta open?
EB: Oh if life was that simple. There’s a lot more involved that I can get into.— Ed Boon (@noobde) February 4, 2017
Confirmed playable characters for Injustice 2 so far include Batman, Blue Beetle, The Flash, Harley Quinn, Superman, Supergirl, Wonder Woman, Deadshot, Gorilla Grodd, Aquaman, Atrocitus, Robin, and Black Canary. Boon has said the game will feature obscure characters.
