The year 2017 is shaping up to be a golden age for fighting games. NetherRealm Studios’ “Injustice 2” has set the bar high, and it appears it is not done yet. Sub-Zero, a new icy character, is coming, and he’s as cold as he is brutal.

“Mortal Kombat’s” fighter shows how much damage and carnage he can dish out in his own trailer. The lethal cryomancer wreaks havoc both in close and long range, revealing a lot to be desired. He lives up to his reputation as a remorseless assassin, as illustrated below.

Frozen Hammer and Icicle Spears, anyone?

In “Injustice 2,” one of the most anticipated scenes in every bout is the cinematic ultimate move. Sub-Zero brings his A-game and makes his presence felt with a barrage of conjured ice.

He glides through the battlefield with his ice manipulation, striking his opponent with an ice hammer. Frozen shards hurl towards his adversary, unable to break free. Finally, he slams the frozen victim to the ground, and its game over.

Sub-Zero brings his ice clones with him

Every character in the DC fighting game has a nifty trick up his sleeve. For Sub-Zero, he brought not one, but two ice clones to help him in his battles.

Basing from the trailer, he can use them in a variety of ways. His clones can inflict damage or can even be used for defense, keeping enemies at bay. It is unknown if he can conjure more than two, but that’s something that will be interesting to find out.

RIP Cameraman

No one would like to hold the camera anymore, at least not when Sub-Zero is winning. In the trailer right after he defeats his foe, he strangles the cameraman and lifts him up. His fans already know how heartless he can be, but this is going beyond creepy.

Sub-Zero is not the first crossover fighter to join the DC fray. In the original “Injustice: Gods Among Us,” fellow “Mortal Kombat” character Scorpion plunged in as a DLC fighter. If anything, this poses the possibility of more crossovers in the future.

Sub-Zero becomes playable on July and will be a part of “Injustice 2’s” Fighter Pack 1.

The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
