Injustice: God Among Us features both superheroes and supervillains who fight with each other. It is set in a 2.5D environment with the DC universe’s most iconic fingers. 

This game has great gameplay and a diverse cast. You will love Injustice: God Among Us story mode, you get to play with heroes and villains of the DC world. The game has a layout of light, medium, and heavy attacks with character traits. The story mode is so exciting from the beginning and the end. The game doesn’t have a block button.

Injustice: God Among Us also comes in online multiplayer mode. I really liked the matchmaking system of this game and the servers are super smooth without any lags which are so satisfying.

Tekken

The first Tekken game was released in 1994, and till now Tekken is the most popular fighting game because of its great fighting mechanics and smooth gameplay.

Tekken 3 introduced so many playable characters, up to 20 characters.

Tekken 3’s story ends in suspense where Jin’s grandfather Heihachi shoots him but Jin survives and transforms into the Devil Gene which builds a huge fan base of Tekken. Due to the super storyline and variety of playable characters, Tekken’s service is universally acclaimed and commercially successful. I personally love the Tekken series. The Tekken series really raised the standard of fighting games.

Killer Instinct

Killer Instinct is a one vs one combat fighting game, this game is a little bit different in terms of combos, Killer Instinct combos are automated, you don’t need to unnecessarily tap the button the combat system will do itself. 

After playing Killer Instinct I think it is a combination of street fighter and mortal combat, the game offers finishing moves just like mortal combat fatalities each player has two moves called no mercy which is like a long combo if you master it you can easily win a match. Players can also break combos. 

Killer Instinct runs very smoothly in 60 FPS to 90 FPS both in offline matches and online matches. The background of the arena feels insane. The lighting, the rain will make you more engaged in the match and focused.
