The Penguin from the Batman: Arkham Games will appear as a cameo in Injustice: Gods Among Us along with Killer Croc, The Riddler and Two-Face. He appears along with them in a stage transition from the main hall in Arkham Asylum to the Asylum's Kitchen. He also appears in one of Shazam's S.T.A.R. Labs Missions. He was revealed in a screenshot by Ed Boon.

Biography 

The Penguin is a Gotham City crime lord with a deformed physical appearance who fights Batman. Despite the penguin-like appearance that led to his nickname, he is a ruthlessly cunning criminal genius operating out of his nightclub, the Iceberg Lounge. Having dealt with mockery of his stature from an early age, he has dedicated himself to inspiring respect and fear through his exploits. His standard weapon is an umbrella with different gadgets, lethal and otherwise hidden inside of it. He has been a member of the Injustice League, Secret Society of Super-Villains and Suicide Squad.

Role in Injustice

The Penguin appears in the Arkham Asylum stage. He's in the recreation area with other Gotham villains, and beats the player/opponent up if they're thrown into the room.

He also appears in Shazam's S.T.A.R. Labs Missions, where, while Shazam and Catwoman are fighting, he anestaetizes the hero or the thief with his trick umbrella, depending on who's nearer to him.

Powers and Abilities

  • Leadership
  • Above-average Intellect
  • Some Hand-to-Hand training
  • Avian Trainer

Appearance

The Penguin wears a custom dark jacket with the collar lined with fur over a silk button up shirt, dark pants and shoes. He wears a monocle over his left eye and carries an umbrella and while not seen in-game, usually wears a dark top hat.

Trivia

  • The Penguin and the other villains in the transition are based on their appearances in Batman: Arkham City.
  • Traditionally, the Penguin is one of the few Batman villains to not be locked up in Arkham Asylum - making his appearance in that stage seem illogical.
