UPDATE: Doomsday Revealed in GameStop's 'Join the Party' Promotion

too smart to play MKX
There's a reason there won't be physical Gamestop locations in two or three years.

I'd like it if they put out the movie alongside the start of Batman/Wonder Woman voting. I mean, alongside the start of Batman voting.

Looks like the spikes go further under his skin like if he makes a fist they come out of his hand
like Wolverine, it would work for a Brawler/Rushdown character.

 
Originally, Doomsday was running around naked. But then writers probably decided it wasn't right. Who knows where he got those.
They're the remnants of what looked to be a prison outfit of some kind. It used to bind one of his arms behind his back before he escaped.

For those who've read the comics, do you think Doomsday's only appearance in the story will be when Superman hallucinates?

I would not have been surprised to see him as a boss-only character, if that was the case.

It really depends on which version of Doomsday they go with. If it's old school mindless murder monster Doomsday I don't really see him adding much to the story, though someone like Lex could conceivably let him loose as a last resort to get rid of Supes. If it's Doomsday after he gained sentience then they have more options for what they can do with him from a story perspective, but more than likely he'll just be used to try and kill Superman.

If I remember correctly, he has actually been spotted in the very first scene of the game, fighting Superman while everybody fight their own villains.

Well, yeah. Superman "fights" him in the comic.

I guess my question is, "Do you think Doomsday will actually make an appearance, or will he just appear in Superman's chapter as a hallucination?"

Didn't NRS confirm that every playable character has a chapter in story mode? Because if that's the case then the actual Doomsday will have to show at some point for his chapter.

Like Nillcox, I've been going with the assumption that he'd be someone's last ditch effort to kill Superman.

Wouldn't be surprised if this backfires and Doomsday ends up being the "Sindel" of this storyline, though.

No I meant there's some kind of war between heroes and villains in the game, and he's there.

Hey, first timer.

I joined because I love comics, DC, and fighting games despite limited ability. Just wanted to post saying that the cutscene probably does have reveals given the reply I got on Twitter. Probably not a total surprise, but I felt it was worth something.

not sure if they said everyone but they did confirm heroes and villains have chapters, but then again some of the "bad guys" are heroes
