A crisis in an alternate DC world brings familiar heroes and villains into conflict. Play as characters from the roster and follow a cinematic story told through a sequence of fights.
Combat pairs two fighters in one-on-one matches. Each character has a unique ability, along with combos and special and super moves; arena objects can be used in combat, and some attacks send fighters into another area.
Beyond the story, S.T.A.R. Labs missions offer character-focused challenges, while arcade and survival modes provide additional fights. The Ultimate Edition includes extra playable characters, skins, and S.T.A.R. Labs missions.
Players often praise the alternate-world DC story, saying it gives the fights a compelling narrative and works even for some who are not dedicated fighting-game fans. Reviews also enjoy the recognizable roster, character-specific abilities, and cinematic moves, while some find the combat accessible for casual play. Others note that the campaign is short, extra challenges can feel repetitive, and online matchmaking is quiet; opinions on the story and combat feel are mixed.
