Injustice 2
You don’t have to be a huge DC fan to enjoy the presentation on offer here – in fact the game doesn’t expect you to know anything at all about it extended roster. Injustice 2 doesn’t just look good, it also feels great to play. This hero fighter has all the tactical depth and nuance of the best fighting games out there, while also delivering some gorgeous looking Super Moves. After all, where else can you see Aquaman feed Green Lantern to a prehistoric-looking shark? NetherRealm has done a fantastic job of showcasing some of DC’s lesser-known characters while making a fighting game that feels both accessible to newcomers and meaty enough to please hardcore players.
Lego Marvel Super Heroes
There have been so many Lego games that it can often be hard to keep track of them all, especially when nearly every bit of pop culture has now been transformed into colorful blocks. However, Lego Marvel is one Lego game we never fail to forget. Its silly nature and simple controls ensure that fans of all ages can enjoy the goofy world. Each character has their own unique abilities and the huge cast remain loyal to their portrayal in the comics and movies. Don’t expect much of a challenge here, but if you have young children, a terrible hangover (same thing really), or simply wish to play a superhero game without all the stress, then Lego Marvel Super Heroes is a solid choice.
