Batgirl Likely Playable and New Wonder Woman Skin Revealed in 'Injustice: Gods Among Us'

Check out the first image of Batgirl, Wonder Woman's alternate costume and figure out when you'll be able to get (yet another) new Batman skin!

Well, looks like someone made a bit of a mistake today! New downloadable content hit XBLA... and it was Batgirl! You obviously can't download her yet (with Lobo it would reach 99% and never complete), but it looks like this is pretty much confirmation for the next playable character. Or, they're pulling an amazing joke on us, which I sincerely doubt. That's two DLC characters down, two to go. Who do you think the remaining characters will be?

No Caption Provided

In other Injustice: Gods Among Us news, they revealed yet another new outfit today. As we all guessed, it's the costume from Wonder Woman #600! They also informed us the Batman Flashpoint skin (which we saw in the Lobo video) will be free with May 7th's compatibility pack -- this is also the day Lobo becomes available.

Viners, are you thrilled Batgirl is likely the next DLC character or are you part of the crowd that doesn't want more Bat characters in the game?

Methinks that Nether Realm was leaned on to put Batgirl in here.

A character reboot that has been largely disliked, combined with a lot of negative press regarding DC's treatment of the writer = DC forcing Barbara down our throats.

While I'm guessing Boon and co had free reign with the initial game, DLC will be closely monitored. We won't get a Wally West skin, for instance.

Boon did say he was pressured into excluding MMH from the original roster (but not by whom), i could see DC doing that

Martian F'KIN Manhunter! THAT's ALL I WANT! It's not like DC doesn't have other original good characters! I'll even name a few original/unique characters that I'd like to see: Firestorm, Starfire, Black Canary, Beast Boy, Plastic Or Elongated Man, Mirror Master, Vixen, Static or Black Lightning, Zatanna, Doctor Fate, Red Tornado, Poison Ivy & of course Martian Manhunter! But If I had to pick just one, it's my favorite martian; J'onn J'onnzz. It's not like he's not a bad or unpopular character, Boon knows ALOT of people want Detective John Jones... So why would we possibly get ZOD & the clone gang instead? ok... this is all BS... I hope so anyway.

EFF Batgirl, We already have Batman & Nightwing. We don't need Supergirl, Powergirl, Batgirl, Red Hood or any other clones! (Red Hood would most likely be a mix of Harley, Nightwing & Batman)

Whoever wants Cassandra Cain, well if this Batgirl rumor is true, then I'm sure we will get Cassie Cain & Stephanie Brown skins.

Scorpion would be cool but, without him doing Fatalities, it would... what's the word I'm looking for ummmmm..... SUCK!!!

ZOD?!? GTFO... I'll watch him in Man Of Steel, I don't want to play as him in Injustice. I'm sure he'd be somewhat of a Superman clone anyway...

This cast of characters is perfect, it would be RUINED if Batgirl, Supergirl, Todd or Zod (lol) is in it. Please Boon, don't screw this up! Originality, PREASE!!! SANK YOU.

he said in an interview that he wanted to put him in the original cast but was talked out of it (probably to save him for dlc to get even more cash) as much as it sucks for fans, it IS good marketing/business. apparently Captain Cold, Plas, and Elongated Man made the "Will not get in this game no matter what" list

Well, I thought Wonder Woman was awful to play with, she was my least favorite, so I don't care about the skin. Plus, I'm just borrowing the game, so I don't need any DLCs

Well, I could have gone for someone other then Batgirl but we don't know yet if she'll play like Batman, probably won't. Look at NW, plays nothing like Batman...

I'm all for Lobo. Babs? Meeeeh. Cassandra Cain maybe, but thre's enouuugh Batman characters. Could have made it Guy or Martian. Static Shock would have made me written a sonnet. Seriously...Static could have been wizard. Or Merlyn.

Awful choice. We have enough Bat-characters in the game (a few of which are pointless), and there's nothing unique about her that would make her different.

Yeah I was angry as well!

I can see MMH totally, but Swamp Thing I couldn't care less about...

I'm fine with Batgirl, perhaps she'll play well.

Lobo i agree with. Batgirl was a terrible decision. new skins are always fun. They shouldn't add scorpion, as this is a DC game. We already have enough Bat Characters, and i was pretty dissapointed that Joker's female clone took up a character slot. Same with GL and Sinestro. Shazam and Black Adam. Maybe they could add beast boy, or martian manhunter, or circe, or even cheshire!

Was it so hard to ask for Martian Manhunter and Swamp Thing? I don't think I ever heard anyone say they wanted Batgirl in the game.

Do you think the guys at Netherealm could be trolling us then?

no, unfortunately i am convinced that Lobo, Batgirl, Zod and Scorpion are gonna be the DLC - and i am so F***** dissapointed!!

Everything pointed out that MMH is the DLC - silhouette, Ed Boon's unofficial vote, them saying here and there that if a character is requested than chances are VERY high of DLC and that DLC is mainly for the characters that fans wanted but didn't make it in the initial roster... MMH has won all the polls on internet for DLC - and always having about a 100 votes difference between him and the character coming second to him...

And now we get Batgirl (who lost poll to Supergirl and Power Girl) and is gonna be a Batman/Nightwing mix

Zod - who was usually wanted only as a Superman skin

and Scorpion who has nothing to do with DC :/

This is awesome news! Batgirl freaking owns. I would have prefered Red Robin, but I'll take it. I know this ins't a Batman only games. It's not my fault he is the best part of DC though.

Better characters would have been :

  • Beast Boy
  • Martian Manhunter
  • Plastic Man
  • Mirror Master

All of those characters would have brought something fresh and new to the table. Beast Boy's various animal transformations would spice things up, as he slithers into a snake to avoid attacks, a gorilla as a heavy attack, and a bird to jump, etc. Martian Manhunter has PLENTY of abilities to make the character interesting. Plastic Man's elastic ability would also make his character goofy and funny. Mirror Master's mirror function in the game would have been magnificent.

Batgirl? The same thing as Nightwing and Batman. Lazy.

Zod? The same thing as Superman. Lazy.

Scorpion actually isn't that bad. I love Scorpion. Lobo looks interesting, but may be end up just as an aggressive Superman.

I say no, that's why I believe she's is a skin, hopefully. I can't see her bringing anything to the table, nothing against the character though.

I have no idea! I turned on my 360 yesterday and there was an update for the Injustice Game, but I'm not sure what it is.One thing's for sure it had nothing to do with Batgirl.

I'm happy to see Batgirl, but hope she comes with a Stephanie Brown or Cassandra Cain skin. I would have rather seen Black Canary... Sonic attacks are really cool and they could have just used the mechanics from Sindel.

SPOILER ALERT... its Zod and Scorpion which is so stupid. im ok with Zod but i think they could have done better for both choices

personally i would have liked to see Black Manta, Beast Boy, Martian Manhunter and Black Canary. they all have a different power set then the current playables. and almost everyone know who they are, certainly more then they know Killer Frost
