Metropolis

Metropolis is one of the largest and wealthiest cities on Earth, home to both Superman and Lex Luthor. It is also a Stage in Injustice: Gods Among Us.

Five years before the main events of the game, Metropolis is featured in the first three chapters before being destroyed by The Joker in a nuclear blast, murdering over eleven million people, among them Lois Lane, who was pregnant with Superman's child. Only one hundred thousand citizens of the city are revealed to have survived, among them Lex Luthor, who was rushed to an emergency bunker under the Lexcorp tower by a speedster.
