Resume Leak Suggests Injustice 3 Is in Active Development
A stuntworker's resume lists motion capture work for Injustice 3, naming Supergirl and Batwoman as potential characters.
Key points
- A stuntworker's resume lists motion capture work for a project named Injustice 3.
- The document names Supergirl and Batwoman as characters involved in the sessions.
- Batwoman's inclusion is significant because she died in the previous canon-compliant comic series.
Evidence is mounting that NetherRealm Studios is actively developing a sequel to Injustice 2. The latest signal comes from a leaked resume belonging to a stuntworker who previously collaborated with the studio, which explicitly references motion capture sessions for a project titled Injustice 3.
While Warner Bros. and NetherRealm have not officially announced the game, the document lists two specific characters: Supergirl and Batwoman. This suggests the development team has moved beyond conceptual planning into the practical phase of recording actor performances for the roster.
Resume details confirm motion capture work
The source of this information, reported by Kotaku, is a professional resume that lists the stuntworker’s involvement in motion capture sessions. The individual has a history of working with NetherRealm on previous titles, making their participation in a DC Universe project plausible. The resume does not provide a release date or a full character list, but it confirms that the studio is hiring for performance capture roles.
Batwoman inclusion defies previous canon
The appearance of Batwoman is particularly notable because the character died in the Injustice comic book series, which serves as the canonical lore for the game series. In Injustice 2, the narrative directly referenced these comic events. Her presence in the new game’s development files implies a significant narrative shift, such as a resurrection, a time-travel plot, or the mantle being passed to a new character.
Supergirl’s inclusion is less surprising, as she was a prominent figure in the previous installment. However, the combination of these two characters suggests the new game may explore different narrative territories than the strictly grounded tone of the last entry. Players should note that this information remains unverified by the publisher, and character rosters can change during development.
Multiple leaks point to active production
This resume is not the first indicator of the game’s existence. Earlier this year, another professional’s resume listed the project name, and recently, a playtest event in California was linked to Injustice 3. These independent data points create a consistent picture of a project in active development, even without an official announcement. For fans, this means a return to the DC fighting genre is likely, though the timeline remains uncertain.
