Why I love Injustice 2’s story mode

Injustice 2 features a darker narrative where Superman has established a regime called The Regime after the death of Lois Lane at the hands of the Joker, leading to Batman's rebellion. Superman is imprisoned for his actions, and characters like Green Arrow and Gorilla Grodd experience significant changes. Green Lantern transforms into a Red Lantern due to regret over his past choices. While the game showcases various characters effectively, Wonder Woman is given a lesser role. Swamp Thing emerges as a strong contender in battles due to his unique abilities and connection to nature.

Building blocks of history: Flint Castle gets Minecraft makeover

School children visited Flint Castle and engaged with its history through Minecraft Education, marking the launch of Cadw’s fourth Welsh heritage site in the game. Pupils from Ysgol Flint Gwynedd and Ysgol Cornist Park participated in interactive learning experiences at the 13th-century fortress, which is significant as the first fortress built by King Edward I in 1277.
