For the second release in a row, Netherrealm's latest game wins one of the biggest accolades in the industry, with Injustice 2 crowned Best Fighting Game at the D.I.C.E Awards!



Repeating the huge success, critical and commercial, of Mortal Kombat X, Injustice 2 blew away many people upon it's arrival with the best NRS storyline yet, amazing graphics and seemingly endless content, on top of the sweet Injustice gameplay. Really, with the exception of the fact that Superman's F23 should have more range and be plus on block, it's an absolutely extraordinary game.


Oh and Superman should have less recovery on his DB3 and air dash. I know it sounds like overkill, but it you look at the meta of the game, it's actually necessary to make him viable because he....actually, what was I talking about?

Oh yeah, Injustice 2 won Fighting Game of the Year at the D.I.C.E Awards! Huge congratulations from all of us here at TYM to everybody at NRS for another job well done for the unquestioned S-Tier fighting game developer!

Unconfirmed reports that the whole NRS office has been listening to this on repeat ever since.

Fighting Game of the Year is obviously the big kahuna, but you can check out the full list of winners here: http://www.interactive.org/awards/21st_annual_dice_award_winners.asp

As always, check back to TYM for the latest on all things Injustice, Mortal Kombat and all the happenings in the NRS community!

How about adding F2D2 which is an overhead on second hit, safe on block and can launch for a full combo?
I don't like mid-string directions cos it affects my overwhelming scrubness. So change the inputs to F22 and make it a true 50/50 and maybe

I will leave my seal on you!
Another award, NRS and WB are killing it! IJ is indeed the best fighting game of the year from all aspects, period.

Didn't Ed Boon say they would release another Fighter Pack if they won Game of the Year?
Not exactly, when Ed Boon was asked if they will release another FP for IJ2, the guy who asked Boon on Twitter said "best game of the year", as if "best game" overall from all genres, not just the "best fighting game of the year". UnCAGEDgamez got on that one, so Boon probably rolled the troll rule once again. Even in that sentence, Ed only said "Sure, why not"? So even in that sentence he didn't officially confirm anything.
