The fighting game also arrives on Personal Computer.
At the time of its first publication, which took place last spring, Injustice 2 performed really well su PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. If you missed the release you can safely recover on this page our review dedicated to the console version of the title Warner Bros.
This review today, however, does not propose to retrace once again the same judgments of the title already examined at the time on consoles. More simply, thanks to Warner Bros who gave us a copy, we could test Injustice 2 also on PC, to see how he fares, performance in hand.
The first question we asked ourselves, however, was the following: we would find on the market a final version of Injustice 2 inclusive of all DLC and the characters released so far, or just the basic version, and then buy them again one by one? Well, a basic version that is the same for all PC users has been released, and one Ultimate Edition which includes additional content, at a higher price of course.
You can't always have everything in life. The choice may leave a bit of a bad taste in the mouth, but it makes sense: Injustice 2 it was not published two years ago, but a few months later. Anyway users PC they can be more than satisfied with the conversion, let's see why.

The test
Injustice 2, and we say it bluntly, finds in its PC version the maximum result from the postural graphic, aesthetic and technical. It is not always something so obvious in recent years. Wonder Woman and Superman who give each other a good reason, anyway, at 1080 and 60 FPS, with maximum details, it is a satisfaction. Also thanks to the choreographic component of the special moves, on the screen we constantly have a riot of explosions and particle effects, all firmly anchored to 60fps.
Not really everything, the mini cutscenes related to the super moves turn at 30. It won't bother most people (we do), but that's how things go and in any case they don't affect the enjoyment of the title at all. Obviously if you really feel the compulsive need to play in 4K you would do better to equip yourself with the latest generation graphics cards, for those who still travel with lower resolutions and do not have a PC purchased yesterday, there is a dynamic mode that adapts the video quality to the performance of the GPU, allowing you to enjoy an always fluid experience.
The advanced video settings still allow you to go and intervene on different subtleties, allowing us to balance graphics quality and performance when needed. In short, it is possible to modify everything a bit, setting the details according to our preferences (and our possibilities).
Final judgement
The second incarnation of Injustice gives us a complete and satisfying title from every point of view. The enormous charisma of the characters, as well as a customization profile that approaches that of some RPGs, guarantee an unusual depth of play for a fighting game. To all this is added a decidedly improved combat system, although still slightly unbalanced and difficult to master and one story mode at a very high level. The result is one of the best fighting games in circulation obviously enjoyable in company, but, and this is the real element of novelty even in single player.
Now let's also add that Injustice 2 conversion was done on PC excellently. The game modes present allow you to squeeze the most powerful hardware available to the user to achieve exceptional results, but also allows those who own a machine over the years to play safely. So let's reconfirm last time's vote: a resounding 9/10.
