Character Trait

Hellboy pulls out one of his medallions, engulfing him in an aura along with a flaming crown and flaming horns. He gains one of the following traits based on a button input:

• Broom's Rosary: A patchy, red aura forms around Hellboy, giving him armor until the buff ends.
• Agrippa's Charm: A flaming aura engulfs Hellboy, increasing all damage dealt, with the exception of his Super Move. The effect lasts about as long as Whittier's Amulet.
• Whittier's Amulet: A red aura forms around Hellboy reducing all damage taken. This buff lasts the longest.
• Mohlomi's Bell: A heavenly aura shines off Hellboy's shoulders, giving him the ability to resurrect when defeated, restoring some health. The amount of health returned is based on how much Super Meter he has when defeated, however, Hellboy may only resurrect when on his second bar of health. This effect lasts the shortest out of all his buffs.

Super Move

• Final Resting Place: Hellboy pulls out one of his medallions and punches a hole in the ground with his stone fist, creates a portal to Hell, then lunges onto the player while the ground traps their feet, tackling them into the hole. He punches them several times while falling into Hell; the player lands and is attacked by demons while Hellboy does an overhead smash with his axe before bringing him and the player back to the battlefield.

Ending

Injustice 2- Hellboy's Ending

Somehow, Brainiac shanghaied me on a slow boat to this universe. Bastard had big dreams about me in his "Collection". Guess what I thought about that idea. Taking Brainiac out certainly got folk's attention. I got a lotta offers to stick around, but I got bored quick. Megalomaniac villains and tights-wearing heroes really aren't my thing. What's it they say? Home is where the heart is? But when I got back, things just weren't the same. The bureau was too small. Was time for me to hit the road. Africa was totally the right call. The wide open spaces suit me. Clean air, starry skies and, not surprisingly, more than a few monsters to hunt. All in all, makes for a pretty good life.

Costumes

Hellboy's base costume is identical to his design in the comics, he wears a thick trench coat with a grey undershirt, mid-length padded pants and boots that reveals the toes of his hooves. 

To the right is Hellboy's base skin, Anung Un Rama. He is wearing his default gear. The remainder of his costumes can be found on his gallery page.

Trivia

• This is first ever appearance of Hellboy being portrayed by a voice actor other than Ron Perlman, who has portrayed Hellboy in all live action films, animated series and video games.
• In-game, Hellboy's stone hand changes from his left to right depending on his stance, unlike in the comics were it has always been portrayed as his right hand. This may simply be an oversight.
• Hellboy is the first guest character to not come from Mortal Kombat. The second being the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
  • He is also the first, (second if the Mortal Kombat comics are counted), comic book guest character from another studio to be featured in the game. He originates from Dark Horse Comics.
• Hellboy mentions that Brainiac tried to collect him.
• Hellboy is the tallest character in-game, towering over most of the character in the game roster (Almost reaching the same height as Braniac and Darkseid).
  • He is usually known by many nicknames such as "Big Red" or "Red" in his universe, and "Big, Red Monkey" for insults.
• Hellboy's ending in Injustice 2 is the only ending shown in Mignola comic book art style by the creator of Hellboy, Mike Mignola.
• Hellboy is the third guest character to appear in Injustice 2 and the fourth guest character overall. The first was Scorpion from Injustice: Gods Among Us.
• Hellboy's shaders are all unable to be purchased with Source Crystals, instead serving as random drops. This may be the result of the deal used to license the character to Warner Bros., which may contain a clause specifying that NetherRealm may only profit off of the sale of the DLC itself.
  • As of February 8th 2018, his shaders are available for purchase and he can be leveled up to level 20 instantly using Source Crystals.
• Hellboy once had a crossover featuring Batman and the Jack Knight Starman titled Batman/Hellboy/Starman back in 1999.
• Enchantress is the only character who know Hellboy's real name, Anung Un Rama.
  • So far in their interactions, Black Manta is the only one who knows him by the name 'Hellboy'.
    • Many of the others don't even know he's called Hellboy.
      • Green Arrow even seems to mistake him for Atrocitus when first meeting him.
        • He will say his name to Atrocitus, calling himself Hellboy after Atrocitus simply calls him boy, after which he calls Atrocitus a dumbass.
• This will be the first time Hellboy has a crossover with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
  • This is also the first time he crosses over with characters from Mortal Kombat.
• The manner in which Hellboy resurrects is very similar to how guest character Jason Voorhees resurrects in Mortal Kombat X.
  • Both require the fighter to lose all their health and will regain a percentage of health based on their remaining Super Meter.
    • Unlike Jason however, Hellboy must input a button input in order resurrect while Jason can simply resurrect when he loses all his health.
      • Ironically, both of these characters share ability traits with one another:
      • Both can grant themselves armor, increase their overall damage and resurrect when defeated. The only difference is that Jason can heal himself while Hellboy reduces his damage taken.
• If Hellboy's head piece increases the size of his horns, he will not grow elongated horns when using his character trait or during his victory pose.
