Atlantis is the underwater continent ruled by Aquaman and is a Stage in Injustice: Gods Among Us.

Injustice Comic

Atlantis appears in Chapter Twelve of the online Injustice comic. After Arthur gives his "Show of strength" to Superman and the Justice League by having his armies appear all over the world, Superman responds with his own. He, Wonder Woman, Shazam and Green Lantern lift the city out of the ocean using a combination of Superman, Wonder Woman and Shazam's strength while Green Lantern seals the city up with a construct from his ring. The four move the city to the Sahara Desert, with Green Lantern and Shazam returning it to where it belongs after Arthur pulls his armies back.

Injustice: Gods Among Us

The alternate Earth Atlantis is only featured in Aquaman's story chapter, where he learns of Superman's personal downfall and rise to power before confronting the Flash and Shazam, defeating them and then his own counterpart in anger for submitting Atlantis to Superman's rule. At the time Martian Manhunter hid in Atlantis in the form of an Atlantean Librarian for 5 years. Arthur is confronted by Ares, who is drawn to the conflict occuring in the under sea city, and after Aquaman defeats him, Ares sends him to Batman's Insurgency, safely removing him from the city.

Interactables

Throne Room

Two Water Tanks on either end of the stage that can be broken open by Power Characters to unleash a giant wave of water.
Two Spigots on either side of the stage that can be turned by Gadget Characters to unleash a powerful stream of water.
On the left side of the stage a Sphere of Water can be thrown at opponents by Power Characters or bounced off of/exploded by Gadget Characters.
Midscreen of the stage, a Throne that the opponent can be kicked into, opening up for additional combos. Also, a Tube of Water hanging above the middle of the arena that Gadget Characters can slide on.
On the right side of the stage, a Tablet that can be thrown at opponents by Power Characters or bounced off of/exploded by Gadget Characters.

Trivia

Atlantis is commonly known as one of the most neutral stages in Injustice, as there are very few interactables (two damaging ones on the sides of the arena, Two that can only be used to damage by Power characters, and one Movement one in the middle) and no Level transition.
Atlantis is Aquaman's home and kingdom.
Atlantis is one of two stages that do not have a stage transition, the other being Ferris Aircraft.
Atlantis was the only stage not to be featured in the Injustice Gods Among Us Battle Arena. The Fortress of Solitude stage was used in 2 battles, causing Atalntis not to be used.
Atlantis has also got an alternate theme in the game, but is never heard during battles. However, the theme can be unlocked in the Archives.
