Zod’s playstyle appears to be a mix of brute strength and deadly alien weaponry. His fighting style includes a plasma assault rifle for ranged attacks, an ability to summon some a demonic looking alien to assist him and of course, typical Kryptonian powers like heat vision. Keeping in line with the game’s outrageous attacks, his ultimate ability involves him throwing his opponent through the moon and then sending them hurdling back down to earth.

Personally, my favourite move showcased was the ability to throw your opponent into the glass like Phantom Zone from the original Superman movies. As expected from the cocky villain, he comes off as very nonchalant while fighting and fans of his catchphrase needn’t worry, he does indeed say “kneel before Zod” during his grab.

While it is unknown if more characters will be added to the fighting game via DLC, we’ll be sure to keep you informed on additional Injustice: Gods Among Us news when it arises.
