DC's Injustice series is a lot more successful than you would think, and many have wondered if Marvel can do the same thing. And they really can't.
Injustice: Gods Among Us launched 10 years ago today, birthing a brand new fighting game franchise from NetherRealm Studios.
Injustice turns ten years old today, so let's look back at why it matters
10 years on from the original release of Injustice: Gods Among Us, NetherRealm's other fighting game deserves recognition.
Does Marvel really need an Injustice of their own when they've been involved with the Marvel vs. Capcom series since its origins in 1994? That iconic crossover franchise's legacy is what inspired Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe which led to Injustice in the first place.
The MvC series has kept a strong presence for a long time at EVO tournaments and for casual players as well. People aren't going to get tired of seeing Marvel characters fighting each other in video games, especially when they're also paired up with and against Capcom characters.
EA tried to make a fighting franchise of their own with Marvel characters with Marvel Nemesis, but that flopped for other reasons.
An injustice style marvel game would be really cool its a shame there's none
Well.. they have "What If"... or the Ultimates... or "insert name" Vs the Marvel Universe...
Uh not sure if they need one with all the hype Marvel vs Capcom gets.
I don't know how MvC does not count.
Personally MvC>Injustice, and it has quite a legacy spanning many years remaining quite relevant and popular. Not really a huge fighting fan but I was a big fan of what I played of MvC3.
