Since ''Injustice 2'' is about the entire DC multiverse, there's plenty of references to go around.
* Supergirl's civilian outfit is heavily inspired by her appearance in the ''{{Series/Supergirl 2015}}'' tv series.
** Another reference to the TV series is in pre-match dialogue for a Supergirl MirrorMatch, where one Supergirl asks the other if she's her sister.
** One of the dialogue interactions has Atrocitus tell Supergirl she "could wear a red ring" – [[Comicbook/RedDaughterOfKrypton which she did for several months]] in the ''ComicBook/New52''. Supergirl [[ItWillNeverCatchOn makes fun of the idea]].
** One of her moves is called "Amazonian Charge", no doubt referring to her training on Themyscira in the Post-Crisis origin. There's also a move called "Matrix", which was the name of a shapeshifter that used the Supergirl identity in the 90's.

* Atrocitus wanting to make Hal Jordan join his Corps may be a reference to the ''Rage of the Red Lanterns'' story arc, in which Hal became a Red Lantern temporarily.
* Aquaman's default armor design is based on Jason Momoa's costume in the [[Film/DCExtendedUniverse DCEU]], with most of the torso bare and tattoos on the shoulders and arms. Wonder Woman also resembles her DCEU design.
* Batman's Super starts with him using a Fulton surface-to-air recovery system, a la the Hong Kong sequence in ''Film/TheDarkKnight''.
** As the Batplane flies in, removing the Fulton system, it silhouettes the moon in the same way that it did in ''Film/{{Batman}}''.
** Not to mention the way it catches the Fulton (between the "ears" of the silhouette) is similar to how it caught Joker's parade balloons in the same movie.
* Superman's Super is almost a shot-for-shot recreation of the airborne fighting seen in ''Film/ManOfSteel'', only ended with a FacePalmOfDoom instead. Said FacePalmOfDoom is itself likely an allusion to the final battle between him and ComicBook/{{Darkseid}} in [[Recap/JusticeLeagueUnlimitedS3E13Destroyer the final episode]] (As shown [[https://youtu.be/035T26ykSD0?t=5m13s here]]) of WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited.
* One of Harley Quinn's Legendary tier Weapon unlocks is named Mad Love, the name of one of the most iconic Quinn stories in the comics. The name is also used for one of her color shadings.
* Both Harley and Deadshot's primary costumes take a lot of visual inspiration from their outfits in ''Film/SuicideSquad'', and during one of her mid-fight round transition animations, Harley mentions hearing voices in her head while gesturing, calling back to a similar line in the movie.
* The group that Gorilla Grodd formed in the wake of Superman's defeat in the first game is called The Society, which is essentially The Secret Society of Supervillains. [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague It's also not the first time that Grodd has lead such a group.]]
* Some of the armors worn by Superman and Supergirl bear different versions of the iconic S-Shield, including the iconic, the ''New 52'' version, the Electric Superman style, even the version from the ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheatricalCartoons''.
* When Superman and Swamp Thing fight, Superman mentions that he's had some bad experiences with plants, which Swamp Thing recognizes stems from [[ComicBook/ForTheManWhoHasEverything an encounter with the Black Mercy]].
* One of Scarecrow's costumes, which consists of a burlap gas mask, a noose, and a lab coat, is based on his appearance in ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy''.
* One intro exchange between Catwoman and Harley includes the latter proposing the idea for the ComicBook/GothamCitySirens. The former is convinced that ItWillNeverCatchOn.
* The Flash's outfit seems to have taken a bit of influence from [[Series/TheFlash2014 his TV show.]] Captain Cold's outfit resembles his show outfit as well.
* Black Canary mentions [[ComicBook/BlueBeetle Ted Kord]] in a clash with the Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle. Dan Garrett is also mentioned in an intro between Jaime Reyes and Jay Garrick.
* Brainiac heavily resembles the [[http://ballo.cgsociety.org/art/brainiac-1165284 the Jose Lazaro design]].
* One of Superman and Flash's intro exchanges is lifted directly from the pages of ''The Flash: Rebirth''.
-->'''The Flash:''' Remember all those races we ran?\\
'''Superman:''' I remember ''winning'' a few, too.\\
'''The Flash:''' [[IAmNotLeftHanded Those were for charity, Clark.]]
** Possibly unintentional, but in one of his intros, Barry says 'I'm back, this time on my times', which was said almost verbatim in the fourth issue of the aforementioned comic.
* One of Catwoman's mid-round lines: "[[Film/BatmanReturns I am Catwoman, hear me roar.]]" From the same movie, she can also be revived by a cat if low on health.
* The gameplay trailer for the Joker has him execute his supermove on Robin. Said supermove consists of [[WesternAnimation/BatmanUnderTheRedHood working him over with a crowbar]] before [[WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyondReturnOfTheJoker electrocuting him]].
* ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily is referenced in the pre-fight dialogue between the Joker and Robin.
* One intro conversation between Batman and Atrocitus where the former asks the latter what would happen if he takes out his ring out, which Atrocitus replies that "he would die" is very similar to one memorable exchange between Bane and the CIA agent from ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises''.
* In one intro conversation between Batman and Bane, Bane declares that he will be Batman's [[ComicBook/{{Knightfall}} "night fall"]].
* Brainiac views the Joker with absolute disgust, vowing that "[he] will not let [the Joker's] cancer spread". Brainiac's creation Telos felt the same way about the Joker in ''ComicBook/{{Convergence}}''.
* In Green Arrow's Arcade Ending, [[spoiler:he joins a reality-travelling Justice League composed by ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}} Wonder Woman, [[ComicBook/SupermanRedSon Soviet Batman]] and [[ComicBook/TheMultiversity Earth-23 Superman]] after they saved his home.]]
* In one of the introductions between Barry Allen and Jay Garrick, Barry says that he can go back in time and fix things, which Jay says is a good way to tick off the Speed Force, which happened in both the comic book and ''Series/TheFlash2014'' versions of ''ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}}''.
* In one of their intros with each other, Mr. Freeze calls Green Lantern "one of Batman's WesternAnimation/{{superfriends}}".
* In Darkseid's arcade ending, [[spoiler:he corrupts Supergirl's mind into serving him, the artwork even dressing her in the same attire she wore during the same scenario in ''WesternAnimation/SupermanBatmanApocalypse''.]]
* Some of the chapter titles reference golden and silver age comic titles, such as "The Brave and The Bold" and "The World's Finest"
* Vixen and John Stewart's intro dialogue references their relationship in the Justice League cartoon.
* The names of Green Lantern's shaders reference each of the Lantern Corps and where they derive their power: Willpower is green, Rage is red, Avarice is orange, Fear is yellow, Hope is blue, Compassion is indigo, Love is purple, Life is white, and Death is black.
* One of Green Arrow's Epic items is "The Bow That Took Slade's Eye".
