If you’re familiar with the Injustice universe, then you know that Superman turned to the dark side and is now a ruthless dictator. However, with each new trailer the story of Injustice 2 comes more and more into focus, and the latest shows Batman and Superman will need to team-up to take down a common threat. This threat is none other than Brainiac.

Brainiac was revealed in a past Injustice 2 trailer but his role in the story was unknown. The Shattered Alliances Part 5 trailer confirms how Brainiac will get to Earth and hints at his plans are for the planet.

Check out the Injustice 2 Shattered Alliances Part 5 trailer below to see Brainiac invade Earth.

First and foremost, it seems Supergirl knows exactly who Brainiac is. There’s a shot where she is with Wonder Woman and Black Adam when Brainiac’s fleet appears in a crystal ball. She recognizes the ships and we see glimpses of her younger self on Krypton as Brainiac decimates the planet.

She says they need to get Superman. There’s even a scene where Batman goes to Superman’s red sun prison to ask how they can defeat Brainiac, to which Superman replies that they can’t.

With the fighting between Batman’s group and Gorilla Grodd’s faction weakening the planet’s defenses, this is the perfect time for Brainiac to strike. And while it’s not shown, it seems Batman will be the one to let Superman out forming an uneasy alliance between the two. Guess Batman is making a deal with the devil.

Injustice 2 will release May 16.
