Years after the last entry in Injustice world, rumours of Injustice 3 have begun to surface. A recent leak involving key voice actors has sparked speculation in the community, leaving fans wondering whether the long-awaited part 3 could finally be on the horizon.
However, it is to be noted that nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
What makes this leak especially intriguing is the credibility behind it; familiar voice actors from past parts have allegedly hinted at their involvement in a new Injustice project. With photos surfacing and fans piecing together the clues, the buzz has intensified online. Could NetherRealm Studios be quietly developing the next chapter in its iconic DC fighting saga? Here’s everything we know so far from the alleged leak.
What is Injustice about?
Injustice is a beloved fighting game series developed by NetherRealm Studios, best known for blending intense combat mechanics with a dark, alternate take on the DC Universe. The franchise began in 2013 with Injustice: Gods Among Us, followed by the critically acclaimed Injustice 2 in 2017. The game is set in a world where ‘Superman’ turns into a tyrant after a personal tragedy, and the series explores a fractured Justice League, where heroes and villains go against one another in brutal, cinematic battles.
Voice actor leaks spark Injustice 3 rumours
Two major voice actors from Injustice 2, George Newbern, who voiced ‘Superman’ and Phil LaMarr, who voiced ‘Green Lantern’, have reportedly confirmed they are working on Injustice 3. These claims are supported by photo evidence from fans who spoke to them. Voice actors leaking game projects has become somewhat common in recent years. As these actors are closely working on the project they add credibility to this information.
Injustice 3 development timeline hints at 2026 release
Injustice 2 launched in 2017, and traditionally, NetherRealm Studios has alternated between Mortal Kombat and Injustice game release every two years. However, that cycle was broken when Mortal Kombat 1 was released in 2023. If the pattern resumes, a 2026 release for Injustice 3 now seems the most realistic estimate.
Injustice 3 is likely in mid to late development
Voice actors usually join a game project once it’s deep into development. That means Injustice 3 is likely past its early stages of production. Studio head, Ed Boon, had previously suggested that the current project has been in development since the early 2020s, supporting the theory that the game could launch sooner than many think.
Fans of Injustice 3 are eager for DC’s fighting franchise to return
The Injustice series has a passionate fanbase due to its cinematic storylines and fast-paced fighting mechanics. With years having gone by since the last Injustice, fans are eager to see which characters will be returning and which new heroes and villains will join the fight. The return of ‘Superman’ and ‘Green Lantern’ is already fueling major hype.
What this could mean for NetherRealm’s roadmap
If Injustice 3 is indeed the next project for NetherRealm Studios it could signal that the studio is moving away from a strict pattern of alternating between game franchises. The delay from 2021 to 2023 for Mortal Kombat 1 showed that development timelines can shift significantly. A 2026 launch for Injustice 3 could signal a new era for the studio’s release strategy.
While nothing is confirmed yet, all signs point to Injustice 3 being real and already well into development. Leaks from trusted voice actors and the studio’s historical patterns of release suggest an announcement could happen soon, possibly setting up for a 2026 release. For fans, the return of DC’s iconic fighting universe can’t come soon enough.
