The first big update to Injustice 2 is being rolled out and fixes a bunch of bugs and visual anomalies happening during gameplay.
NetherRealm Studios released the full patch notes for the June 5 update and a lot of it has to do with general fixes and stage-specific fixes to intractables and overall playability, but what most players are looking for are the character-specific changes that are being made.
While this update doesn’t necessarily give any significant nerf or buff to any one character, plenty of fighters get some minor fixes to visuals while other changes allow for moves and attacks to function as originally intended.
Here are all the character-specific changes made in the Injustice 2 June 5 update.
- Black Adam - the Gear Ability Soul of Shazam now increases damage on initial hit of SHAZAM!!! (Flip Stance + Meter Burn)
- Black Adam - the Gear Ability Seth Strike can now be done as a wakeup, reversal, and be 2in1 cancelled into
