Says everyone who downloads the new Scorpion DLC for Injustice: Gods Among Us.

In this ever shrinking world where various IPs are intermingled in an attempt to make recycle tired characters, it’s no surprise that Mortal Kombat’s undead ninja is being pitted against Superman and friends. I suppose Injustice isn’t a game you play if you’re a hardcore canonist anyway- it’s about famous faces punching each other- so now you can stick everyone’s favourite yellow-clad spearman in the mix.

‘The version of Scorpion seen in the game is designed by Jim Lee, Co-Publisher at DC Entertainment, and pays homage to NetherRealm Studios’ original blockbuster franchise.’

I remember when Scorpion was a bad spirit that took over Kung Lao’s mate, Takeda. Remember that little spin-off? Wish you couldn’t?

Scorpion will be available on Xbox LIVE® Marketplace for 400 Microsoft Points and PlayStation®Network at a price of £3.99.

Here’s a trailer video:
