'Injustice' reveals Cyborg and Nightwing

Two new characters have been revealed for Injustice: Gods Among Us.

This week at San Diego Comic-Con, NetherRealm Studios announced that Nightwing and Cyborg will be playable characters in the DC Universe fighting game with the first screenshots of them in action.



The two heroes join a cast that includes Batman, Harley Quinn, Solomon Grundy, Superman, The Flash and Wonder Woman.

The game is said to have a deep original story, taking place in "a world where the lines between good and evil are blurred".

NetherRealm is developing the title, after last year's success with Mortal Kombat. In 2008, the team also created Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe as Midway Games.

Injustice: Gods Among Us is scheduled to release in 2013 on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii U.
