Platform & Replayability
Injustice 2 vs. Prey
First things first, let’s talk about platform availability for both titles. For those on PS4 and Xbox One, good news! You can get both titles right now without a problem. PC players, however, may be limited in their options.
Unfortunately, Injustice 2 hasn’t made its way to PC. As a result, your decision is made for you, go pick up Prey and enjoy Talos-I and all the horrifying things it has in store for you. If you’re on a console, though, your decision hasn’t been made any simpler. So let’s talk replayability!
Prey is fairly replayable, thanks to its various endings and freedom-focused gameplay. If you blasted your way through the first time with the help of alien abilities, you could play a non-lethal playthrough with no abilities whatsoever on your second run. Ultimately, though, you’ll be doing the same things over again, so there’s only so much replayability that this freedom can offer.
Injustice 2, on the other hand, is one of those games you can just keep going back to. With its story mode, online matches, Multiverse, and Versus mode for local multiplayer, the plethora of play options and the natural replayability of the fighting genre makes Injustice 2 a game far too easy to sink hours into. Plus, there are more fighters on the way via DLC, too, meaning you’ll have even more options when you begin to grow tired of the roster’s initial selection.
