After completing the Story once:

  1. Select Chapter Select from the Story mode menu.

Multiverse Achievements

Injustice 2 Achievement Guide

Multiverse is Injustice 2's main single-player component, offering an ever-changing array of Portals and Events, as well as unique Gear and rewards. See our Multiverse Guide for an in-depth explanation of how Multiverse works and lots of additional tips and advice.

Event-full (15)

Complete 25 Portal events

See Pulling Overtime.

Pulling Overtime (15)

Complete 100 Portal events

The Multiverse is found under Single Player from the main menu. Each planet in Multiverse offers multiple Portals (ladders/groups of fights) to complete. To get credit for completing a Portal, you must actually beat it.

  1. You'll complete three Tutorial Portals at the start of Multiverse mode. These count towards your goal of 100.
  2. For the Spoiler Alert Achievement, you'll need to complete any Portal from the Battle Simulator planet with each of the 28 non-DLC characters. Combined with the Tutorial, this will put you at 30 completed Portals.

You could just complete any 70 regular events over time to get the Achievement. The fastest way to get credit for an event is to select the Endless Portal from the Battle Simulator planet. Lose right away and you still get credit for completing the Portal, although you won't earn any rewards.

If you want to complete Portals for rewards but haven't got the skills to pay the bills, you're in luck! Here's how to easily win via AI profiles:

  1. Select any Portal for which you have a level-appropriate character (preferably your highest-level hero or villain).
  2. Highlight your highest-level fighter and press the Loadouts button (X on Xbox One).
  3. Skip past the five player profiles and select the first AI Loadout. Note that you should customize the AI Loadout with level-appropriate equipment beforehand.
  4. Let the AI fighter play through the Portal for you! As long as the character is equipped well enough for the ladder, it should win every battle for you.

View all character endings in the Battle Simulator

Injustice 2 Achievement Guide Ending

  2. You can complete any of the Portals on this planet except for the Endless Portal to view a character ending.
  3. For expediency, select the Novice Battle Simulator. It consists of five fights.
  4. Choose Very Easy difficulty.
  5. Complete the Battle Simulator with all 28 non-DLC characters to get the Achievement. This means you'll need to have completed Story mode and unlocked Brainiac.
  6. Remember, you can choose AI Loadouts to make this easier. See Pulling Overtime for more details.

Overlord (15)

Catch The 4:30 To Metropolis (15)

Knock an opponent into the Memorial Station Arena Transition at 4:30

Injustice 2 Achievement Guide

This Achievement is real-time based and must be accomplished at 4:30 AM or PM. It reportedly has a couple of minutes of flexibility, so it should still unlock if you perform the transition slightly early or late.

This can be done in any mode, but it's easiest to do it in either local Multiplayer Versus with a second controller or Single-Player Single Fight against an AI opponent of Very Easy difficulty.

To select the Metropolis Memorial Station Arena:

  1. Choose anyone for both characters.
  2. Highlight the Metropolis (The Ace of Spades Bar) Arena.
  3. Press the Change Starting Arena button (Y on Xbox One) to switch to the train station arena.

Once the fight has started:

  1. Beat on your opponent until he or she is on their final life meter.
  2. Get the opponent against the right-side edge of the arena. Now wait for 4:30.
  3. At 4:30, press Back + Heavy Attack (A button on Xbox One) to knock the enemy back and initiate the transition. The Achievement should pop during the transition animation.

It's Showtime (15)

Knock an opponent into the Empire Theatre Arena Transition at 8:00pm

This Achievement is real-time based and must be accomplished at 8:00 PM. It reportedly has a couple of minutes of flexibility, so it should still unlock if you perform the transition slightly early or late.

This can be done in any mode, but it's easiest to do it in either local Multiplayer Versus with a second controller or Single-Player Single Fight against an AI opponent of Very Easy difficulty.

  1. Select the default Gotham City arena.
  2. Get the opponent against the left-side edge of the arena. Now wait for 8:00 PM.
  3. At 8:00 PM, press Back + Heavy Attack (A button on Xbox One) to knock the enemy back and initiate the transition. The Achievement should pop during the transition animation.

Going Ape (15)

Throw 3 kegs during a match with Gorilla Grodd at the Ace o' Clubs

  1. Select Grodd for one or bother fighters.
  2. Pick the default Metropolis arena.
  3. The kegs are found on the left side of the arena. Simply grab and throw all three of them with the environmental interaction button (Right Bumper on Xbox One).

  2. Atlantis
  3. Batcave
  4. Brainiac's Ship
  5. Gotham City
  6. Kahndaq
  7. Metropolis
  8. Red Sun Prison

Although you can perform transitions during any fight or mode, I recommend doing them while working on the character-specific Achievements. Batman's Back to Where You Belong Achievement involves performing seven transitions all on its own. If you pick an appropriate arena and do one transition as you work on everyone else's individual Achievements, you'll knock out the remaining eighteen transitions along the way.

Killer Croc (15)

Have the final hit come from the crocodile in Slaughter Swamp

Injustice 2 Achievement Guide

This can be done in any mode, but local Versus or Single Play are easiest. It requires a strong character like Bane, Cyborg, Darkseid, Superman, Supergirl, or Swamp Thing to perform the environmental interaction with the crocodile.

  1. Select the Slaughter Swamp arena.
  2. Reduce the foe's life to less than twenty percent.

  3. Throw someone into the computer monitor in the background on the left.
  4. Knock someone into the computers on the left side of the arena.

Next, perform an arena transition on the left side of the arena (Back + Heavy Attack). In the second arena:

  1. Grab and kick the two tires off the green cart.
  2. Ride the Batcycle at the left side of the arena.
  3. Knock someone into the Batmobile on the right side of the arena.
  4. Smash someone with the generator on the right side of the arena.

The Achievement will unlock for both players as soon as the eight interaction is completed.

Would You Like Some Crumpets With That? (15)

Duck 10 times in a row during a match

This is a complete gimme. During any fight, simply press down to duck a total of 10 times. It will likely be the first Achievement you earn.

Untouchable (15)

Go 10 seconds of the match without being hit by your opponent

You should get this naturally while playing the game, but you can also set it up easily by either local Multiplayer Versus with a second controller or Single-Player Single Fight against an AI opponent of Very Easy difficulty.

If playing Multiplayer Versus, just don't do anything and the Achievement will pop after a few seconds. Against an AI opponent, choose a character with a ranged special move like Superman or Darkseid and spam the move repeatedly to keep the enemy away for 10 seconds.

Feel the Power (15)

Reach level 35 in Player XP

All wins and losses contribute XP to your player profile. Whenever your profile levels up, you'll receive rewards.

As you work towards the other Achievements, you'll naturally reach level 35 long before everything else is done. I recommend sending AI profiles into the Battle Simulator of the Multiverse while you work on unlocking everyone's endings. They'll level up, and so will your player profile.

Heathens (15) – Secret Achievement

Win a match with each villain

For this Achievement, you must win a single-player or multiplayer battle with all fourteen characters who appear on the right side of the character selection screen. This includes:

  1. Atrocitus
  2. Bane
  3. Black Adam
  4. Brainiac
  5. Captain Cold
  6. Cheetah
  7. Deadshot
  8. Gorilla Grodd
  9. Joker
  10. Poison Ivy
  11. Robin
  12. Scarecrow
  13. Superman
  14. Wonder Woman

Because Brainiac is unlocked by completing Story mode, you'll have to finish that before you can go after Heathens. Story mode involves victories with Black Adam, Superman, and Wonder Woman. You'll knock the other wins out naturally while going for the character-specific win Achievements.

Feeling Super (15)

Perform every Supermove

Injustice 2 Achievement Guide

Supermoves require four full bars of Super meter to perform. When your meter is filled, press the Supermove button combination (Left Trigger + Right Trigger on Xbox One) to activate the move.

For this Achievement, you'll need to perform the Supermoves of all 28 non-DLC characters, including Brainiac (unlocked via completing Story mode). This can be done in any mode other than Practice, with Single Fight and Versus being the quickest options.

Nine characters have Supermove-related Achievements (Cyborg, Swamp Thing, Green Arrow, Doctor Fate, The Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Joker, and Superman) so be sure to get those knocked out before you start trying to perform whichever ones you're missing.

Master of All Trades (70)

Reach max level with all characters

20 is the maximum level for each character. It takes a total of 61,078 XP to reach level 20. For this Achievement, you must max out all 28 non-DLC characters, including Brainiac (unlocked via completing Story mode). Everyone used in Story mode will gain some XP there and reach level three or four by the time you complete, which helps a little.

There are many ways to earn XP. AI Battle Simulator has such low XP payouts that I don't recommend it. My preference is simply to take AI profiles into the Multiverse. Send your AI fighters into the Battle Simulator while you work on unlocking everyone's endings, and then keep using it to boost their XP. See Pulling Overtime and Spoiler Alert for more instructions and tips.

Characters can also be instantly leveled up to 20 from the Customize Characters screen by spending premium currency crystals on them, but that would be a big waste of crystals and/or money.

The ultimate superhero fighting game

Injustice 2 Achievement Guide Harley Quinn

If you haven't picked up Injustice 2 yet, what are you waiting for? In our review, I remarked that "the amount of single-player content in Injustice 2 is unprecedented" and called it "a fantastic sequel." Tons of iconic characters, an addictive Gear system, and excellent online multiplayer make this game the complete package. Anyone with a love of DC characters or fighting games is going to love Injustice 2.

Injustice 2 is available on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 for $59.99.
