The latest update for Injustice 2 is being rolled out now and will include new skins (including a new premiere skin) and a ton of game and character balances.
NetherRealm Studios announced new skins for all of the Injustice 2 characters to support the esports/tournament communities. This is similar to how NetherRealm provided skins for Sub-Zero for Mortal Kombat X’s launch year.
Check out the tweet and video with the new tournament skins for Injustice 2.

As for the premium skin, Bizarro was teased in the Starfire reveal trailer and is now available in Injustice 2 with the August update. Like other premium skins, Bizarro is treated as a brand-new character with his own dialogue. In the case of Bizarro, his moveset is the opposite of Superman’s with heat breath and ice eyebeams.
The August update also includes a lot of game and character balances in Injustice 2 . These changes were teased by the NetherRealm Studios crew in previous wee, but now that the August patch (update 1.07, if you’re keeping track) is rolling out, Warner Bros. has released the entire patch notes documenting every change.
