Injustice 2 has sold over 9 million copies worldwide, according to NetherRealm Studios co-creator Ed Boon.

Boon disclosed the sales figure in a post on BlueSky (via GameReactor) following a discussion regarding NPD Group data for top-selling superhero games in the US (ranked on dollar sales). The dataset listed Injustice: Gods Among Us in eighth place and Injustice 2 in tenth, trailing titles like Marvel's Spider-Man, Batman: Arkham City, and Batman: Arkham Knight. Responding to a user asking whether Injustice 2 had surpassed 2 million sales, Boon confirmed that the game has surpassed 9 million in global sales.

Despite these strong numbers, NetherRealm Studios hasn't yet officially confirmed a sequel. However, earlier this year, an artist at WB Games listed “Injustice 3 (TBD)” on their resume, suggesting Injustice 3 might be in development.

KitGuru says: Are you a fan of the Injustice series? Would you like to see a third entry in the franchise?

NetherRealm boss, Ed Boon has teased Injustice 3 in the past, but for the past decade or so, the studio has been primarily focused on Mortal Kombat. It might be time for a grand return though, as a new report claims that Injustice 3 is now in development.

MP1st, a site that has been very active with leaks over the past year, reports that one WB Games artist recently confirmed that they are working on Injustice 3. This, tied in with previous slip-ups from Injustice voice actors indicates that the game is well into development at this stage and could be announced officially this year.

Injustice is a fighting game series, which takes inspiration from the likes of Mortal Kombat, but with a DC superhero twist. The games are also known for their excellent single-player campaigns – Injustice 2 in particular had some of the best cinematic moments for its time.

It has been around three years since NetherRealm's last release, so Injustice 3 may be confirmed at something like a State of Play, or at the next major EVO tournament.

KitGuru Says: I was a huge fan of Injustice 2 so would be excited to see the series finally return. Injustice 3 has appeared in rumours plenty of times in previous years though, and nothing has panned out yet.

Spotted by MP1st, it seems that a small misstep by an artist at WB Games confirms that Injustice 3 is the next game we'll see from fighting game studio NetherRealm. The next entry in the superhero-charged fighting game is a project that we've seen teased for months now, and this latest mention adds fuel to the Injustice 3 fire. Last year, a MultiVersus dataminer teased they had found evidence of Injustice 3, and a few months after that, two of the game's voice actors, George Newbern and Phil LaMarr, who provided the voices for Superman and the Green Lantern, respectively, […]
