Years after the last entry in the Injustice universe, rumours of Injustice 3 are circulating, sending fans into a frenzy. A recent leak involving key voice actors has sparked speculation that NetherRealm Studios may finally be preparing the next chapter in the beloved DC fighting game franchise. While nothing has been officially confirmed, the leak has captured the attention of the gaming community.
What Is Injustice About?
Injustice is a critically acclaimed fighting game series developed by NetherRealm Studios, known for combining fast-paced combat mechanics with a darker, alternate take on the DC Universe. The series launched in 2013 with Injustice: Gods Among Us, followed by Injustice 2 in 2017. Set in a world where Superman becomes a tyrant after personal tragedy, the games explore a fractured Justice League and pit heroes against one another in brutal, cinematic battles.
Voice Actor Leak Sparks Hopes for Injustice 3
The leak centers on George Newbern, who voiced Superman in Injustice 2, and Phil LaMarr, who voiced Green Lantern. Both actors allegedly confirmed their involvement in Injustice 3, supported by fan-circulated photos. In recent years, leaks from voice actors have become a credible source of early information, given their direct involvement in projects.
Development Timeline Hints at 2026 Release
While Injustice 2 released in 2017, NetherRealm typically alternated releases between Mortal Kombat and Injustice games every two years. That cycle was disrupted by Mortal Kombat 1 in 2023. If the original pattern resumes, a 2026 release for Injustice 3 seems plausible.
Game Likely in Mid-to-Late Development
Voice actors usually join projects when development is already underway, suggesting that Injustice 3 has passed its early stages. Studio head Ed Boon previously indicated that the current project has been in development since the early 2020s, reinforcing the possibility that fans could see the game sooner than expected.
With these leaks and timelines, anticipation for Injustice 3 is at an all-time high, leaving fans eagerly watching for official announcements from NetherRealm Studios.
