==Gameplay==
The game plays similar to the Injustice series as you can play as a character and can use a light, medium and heavy attack. The game differentiates by making it a tag fighter as you choose two characters to be a tag team and the fourth button allows you to summon your partner to do a tag attack. However, the only way to play as your partner is to be defeated in combat. If both partners are alive when the super bar is filled, you are able to do a co-op super where both characters do an unique super together. The game has an arcade mode, a story mode and an endless dungeon mode where you pick a team and fight through hordes of altered combatants gaining buffs as well as costumes, bonus art and taunts.

*While the game was primarily developed and written by NetherRealm's own team, led by Ed Boon, in an interview to IGN, he stated that some of the featured series' creators and developers also contributed with input for the game in order to make things meld together, namely Craig McCracken (The Powerpuff Girls), Genndy Tartakovsky (Dexter's Laboratory and Samurai Jack), Glen Murakami and Matt Youngberg (Ben 10 series), Ian Jones-Quartey (Steven Universe and OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes) and Tom Warburton (Codename: Kids Next Door).
