Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition Is Free, But Some Countries Got Geoblocked!

One platform seems to affect two countries (including ours), and there’s a reason why this is.

So Warner Bros. Games announced on Twitter that Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition is free on PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 (and Xbox One via backwards compatibility), and Steam until June 25. This game is set in an alternate version of the DC Comics Multiverse, where Superman was tricked by the Joker into killing Lois Lane and destroying Metropolis with a nuclear bomb. This makes the underwear-on-the-outside hero enraged, killing Joker in retaliation, and then, he becomes a tyrant, making him a bigger and far more deadly foe than ever before.

Now, this game is not available on PC in Hungary (personal experience speaking) and Lithuania. If we click on the Steam link, all we get is an error message, saying the game is not available in our region. For our case, it is likely due to the Red Son DLC in the game. It’s a three-chapter comic book that explores what would have happened if Superman didn’t land in the United States but the Soviet Union. So, the red star. The publisher was afraid of tearing up old scars and did not release the game in Hungary, and the geoblocking is still active to this day… except for the fact that a now-defunct print magazine has had this exact version of the game included in its May 2016 issue…

To those who are not affected, here are the system requirements.

Minimum system requirements:

  • OS: 32-bit Windows 7 / Windows 8 / Vista
  • Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz, or AMD Athlon X2 2.8 GHz, or better
  • Memory: 2 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS, or AMD Radeon HD 3850, or better
  • DirectX: Version 10
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 21 GB available space
  • Windows XP and DirectX 9.0b and below not supported

 

Recommended system requirements:

  • OS: 64-bit Windows 7 / Windows 8 / Vista
  • Processor: Intel Core i5-750 2.67 GHz, or AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4 GHz, or better
  • Memory: 4 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560, or AMD Radeon HD 6950, or better
  • DirectX: Version 11
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 22 GB available space (what’s the difference here?)
  • Windows XP and DirectX 9.0b and below not supported

 

Interesting timing: AT&T, owners of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, are rumoured to sell the company…
