‘Injustice: Gods Among Us’ Free DLC Aims To Avoid Compatibility Issues

NetherRealm’s newest fighting game “Injustice: Gods Among Us” will get free DLC in the form of character costumes in the future, says studio boss Ed Boon. The move is way to avoid compatibility issues between online players.

Boon tells GameInformer the costume DLC will be free although he does not detail which costumes he is referring to. When asked if there’s a plan to include costumes with each of the paid DLC characters, Boon says that the “game has literally over 100 costumes between pre-order stuff, the ones you can buy, and the ones packed in the game. There's a ton of them.”

“Giving people costumes is the way we can push the other content. For instance, if you download Lobo, we want it so you can play Lobo against me, but I need to have the Lobo content on my machine for you to use him against me. The way we're going to do that is to give away costumes,” Boon says.

“When you get your free costumes, you'll also get the necessary content to be compatible with everyone, so there's no issue of people not having downloads.”

Boon adds that the company doesn’t want people to download something and not get anything out of it.

“So we're giving them these free skins,” he adds.
