What We Think

Injustice 2 keeps its focus on superhero drama and classic comic lore, steering clear of forced diversity or heavy-handed progressive themes. The game is comfortably non-woke and should appeal to old-school fans.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Injustice 2 largely stays true to its superhero source material, focusing on established DC characters and story arcs. Character identities align with classic comic book lore, not shoehorned in for the sake of diversity. There’s no major emphasis on identity politics over personality or skill, letting the conflict and drama drive the story.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Core themes like justice, redemption, and family remain intact, with traditional heroism and masculine and feminine character strengths both represented. There’s no heavy subversion of gender roles or attack on religion, morality, or families, just classic superhero good-vs-evil fare.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Heroes and villains come from all backgrounds, and while the game has a few modern touches, it doesn’t erase alternative perspectives or caricature traditional values. Conflict is about ideology within the superhero world, not a lecture on modern identity issues. Pluralism exists, so does debate.
