There is a broad consensus among NetherRealm fans that the release of Injustice 3 is a matter of "when," not "if." While there is no official confirmation yet, it doesn’t seem likely that NetherRealm will completely abandon the DC fighting game series to focus solely on Mortal Kombat titles. Therefore, even the slightest hints related to Injustice catch the attention of fans, and their excitement grows until an official announcement is made.

Ed Boon, the co-creator of Mortal Kombat and director of Injustice, is sharing polls on Twitter/X to vote on the Super moves of Injustice 1 characters. In these polls, characters like Hawkgirl and Joker face off against Zod and Killer Frost. Boon has disabled comments for both rounds, allowing fans to simply cast their votes. This has led fans to believe that Boon is bringing Injustice's legacy back into the spotlight.

Boon's posts are thought to have a connection to Injustice 3. While users comment, "I hope an announcement comes soon," some are hoping this could be a kind of hint. Interestingly, many fans believe that Injustice 3 may not be referred to by that name, speculating it could be rebranded inspired by DC Comics' DC K.O. crossover event.

There is also the possibility that Boon is trying to determine which characters and Super moves are favorites. These polls, in which fans are engaging before any official decisions are made, could be a promising sign regarding the future of Injustice 3. As NetherRealm continues its relationship with DC fighting games, fans are eagerly awaiting news of a new game.
