How to unlock the Metahuman achievement in Injustice: Gods Among Us - Definitive Guide

This achievement can be done in Practice Mode. I believe supermoves count as special moves as well, so you'll unlock 'Superhuman' at the same time. If you don't think you'll be overwhelmed, you can go for 'Feel the Burn!' at the same time as well.

Go to practice mode and choose a character. Work your way through each character in order, to help keep track.

Once in game, go to PRACTICE OPTIONS and set METER GAIN to REFILL. Next, go to MOVES LIST and scroll over to SPECIAL MOVES to view all the special moves for the character. Up to 6 moves can be tagged using the Y button so that they show up on screen for easy reference.

Back out of the menu and start performing each of the moves you've tagged. Once you've done this, go back to the special moves list, clear your tags, tag whatever special moves are left and perform those as well. Finish off with their supermove.

Be thorough. Do each special multiple times if you're not sure you did it right. Once you've made it through every character, the achievement will unlock when you exit practice mode.

If it didn’t unlock for you, these are the things that are easily missed to check for first:
Character Powers:
This seems to be the thing people miss the most the first time through. Every character power counts as a special move, even power-up ones like Superman and Bane’s, even though you might assume they wouldn’t count.

Raven’s Demon Stance:
Her demon stance character power has a very limited amount of time before you go back to normal. Keep an eye on this while performing her demon stance specials, and wait for it to recharge after it runs out.

Hawkgirl Wing Evade and Soaring Hawk follow-ups:
There are 3 different follow-up attacks to Hawkgirl’s Wing Evade and Soaring Hawk moves that are listed in the description, but not in the special moves list. Press the corresponding button after doing the move to use the follow-ups.

Green Arrow’s arrows:
His character power has 3 different types of arrows. Activate and fire each type.

Ares’ Weapons Of War:
Ares’ character power is a series of sword and axe moves. Do each at least once.

Harley Quinn’s Bag-O-Tricks:
Her character power has 3 possible items. A photo frame, a flower, and dynamite. Use her character power until you’ve seen all 3 at least once.

Catwoman:
She leans back during high feline evade, and does a little hop for low feline evade. Also be sure to do her 5 scratch version of her Cat Scratch power. Scratches are earned by scoring hits. Hit your opponent with other moves until you see MAX at the bottom of the screen. Press to unleash the full attack.

If you think there's something you may have overlooked, or not sure if you're doing a move right, here is a series of videos for every special move, meter burn, and super:

Solomon Grundy has 6 extras on his "B" button skill but I can only get 3 of them to work. Any suggestions on when the final hit skill is supposed to be input?

I was also wondering if meter burn moves count as a special move.

As an answer to Korrupted Kloud, you perform the second skill when grundy grabs the opponent in the air and then the second one is performed right as he picks them up off of the ground. If you need a video I can work on one since I haven't been able to find a reliable one yet.

I went through this several times, before popping it in a match after using X, Y, and A each directly following Hawkgirl's evade move (Down, Back, Y). It's not listed in the special's list, but this popped it for me. She does a different attack with each button following her evade special. Try this if it's not popping.

Like with Hawkgirl, Harley Quinn also has a special move stance (down back A) that has different buttons for you to do afterward. A, X, Y, forward, backward. The achievement popped for me when I exited training mode after doing those with Harley, and I was confused why I didn't have it for awhile since I had done Hawkgirl's earlier.

For Solomon Grundy, what worked for me, was listening to him talk then enter the next combo. Hit B and he will say his name during the combo, when he says his name, enter the combo (right,left, B.) Then he will say "born on Monday", while he is saying that enter the next combo, (down, right, B). That will complete one set of the moves for his character power. He doesn't say anything but his name for the other 2 sets, but you can use the first set to help you get the timing down for the other 2 sets. Hope that helps!

Do you need to have these attacks connect on an opponent or can you just do button inputs? An example would an air projectile that would hit an enemy in the air, can you just perform the move without it connecting? Also, Catwoman's feline dodges, do you actually have to dodge an attack.

I was also trying to get both achievements and so far unlocked the meter burn one, not the special moves, just some info to put out there.

alright so weird stuff here. I went through on my own going by the special moves list in game. did them all, nothing popped so I came here and checked this guide. so then I did all the b button powers as I hadn't done them the first time. still nothing. so then I did all the specific characters the guide mentions, still no chievo. so anyways today I decided id go through and do all the throws just to see if that would pop it, soon as I did flash's throw and went back to character select it popped for me. wtf. I know for a fact I haven't done everyones throw so who the hell knows what that's about. anyways cheers for the guide helped a lot.

Awesome solution!! Finished Classic Battle w/ every character and it didn't pop. Saw your notes at the bottom and I totally missed Hawkgirl's 3 follow up attacks for her Wing Evade. You saved me a ton of time! Double thumbs up!!

Do the moves you do in star labs count towards this?

Mine unlocked after doing Lobo. So I guess the DLC characters count too.

Did it twice - with perform and connect. Also while doing meter burn chievo. Didn't pop at all. Then I played as a Batman to get Arkham City Lockdown. It popped, I've checked and both chievo for special attacks are obtained... Glitchy a bit

For anyone who is absllutely sure they've done all the moves but the achievements hasn't popped:
Back out of practice and complete 1 offline match. Whether it's a single fight, a fight in the battle mode, whatever.
That's what got the achievement to pop for me.
I suppose it's a way for the game register you've done it because there isn't a trigger for it in Practice mode.
So do all of the moves in practice, back out, complete one offline match and it should pop.

Are dlc characters required?

@NERMO64 no DLC characters are not required. I have ultimate edition and definitely did not do any special moves other than for Martian Manhunter and it popped.
It didnt pop immediately, I had to exit practice mode but when I had been on my final character it did. Also I did not have to do all the other Solomon Grundy A special power throw combos, but thats been said before but still relevant. M

Would like to confirm that AlteredScotsman's method still works. If you're sure you did every single move - play standard 1v1, win, and it should unlock the achievement

So hold on. If I got all the meter burns achievement, do I have to do the regular versions of them for this one? I went through and did everyone's B move, everyone's grab, and the catwoman one and I still don't have it... damn!

just went through every single special move for every character, including character moves and all their variations... nothing. are you sure that the meter burns aren't needed for the achievement? that's the only thing i didn't do. were you selecting "player select" or "main menu" between each character? did something not save? ARRRGGGH.. lol

Thanks I had figured it out before you posted back and to anyone else having trouble. If you don't want to watch every video make sure you do hawkgirl again. Her dodge move has 3 buttons attributed to it as well. A, X, and Y. Its listed in the side description but not actually attached to the combo on screen even if you tag it. I unlocked both metahuman and feel the burn tonight so feel free to ask anymore questions you may have.

As mentioned in a comment above, Harley Quinn has a special stance Dwn, Bck, A followed by: A, X, Y, Fwd, or Bck, and you must use each of the inputs for the achievement to pop.
Not sure if it mentions these on her specials menu and I overlooked them, but I had previously done the move before just using A to shoot from the ground, but you must do them all.

Okay, I can confirm that they do not need to connect. Also, I did not do everyone's powers (B). I had already done most of the special attacks and I was going to go back and do a couple of the characters' powers but it unlocked for me without ever doing Solomon Grundy or all of Hawkgirl's powers.

I had a tough time unlocking this one. I went through everyone and did all meter burns, special moves, and character powers (having already done all the supermoves) and still did not pop this achievement, though I did unlock "Feel The Burn." What I had to end up doing was go back and do all the meter burn special moves I did WITHOUT THE METER BURN. Doing a special move and adding a meter burn at the end apparently does NOT count as just performing that special move. I have not seen this point stated anywhere on the internet, perhaps it is way more obvious to others than it was for me, but I can confirm that this is how I finally got the "Metahuman" achievement, and anyone who is having difficulty unlocking it should absolutely be aware of this. It should perhaps be supplemented to the original post.

I've done every move on the list at least a hundred times, can someone tell me why this doesn't seem to work? Is there something I'm missing? I've done all the power-up stance shifts and Ares stuff as well. Have used all of Green Arrows bows and still nada. I feel like this is glitched for me, is there anything I can do to fix it?

The one that popped it for me was

Green Lantern's ===== (Air) Oa's Rocket - Left, Right, "X"

I guess I just never did that one, but that's after trying this achievement like 4 different times :/

Every character has some special moves available. In any fight you can press the button and see them so for this trophy you need to perform every move at least once for all fighters.

Here is a list of all moves with all fighters for additional reference. Keep tracking of the fighters and moves to make it in order (credit to trav.lane for link).

According to immikeulate you can unlock this trophy on Practice Mode so it's strongly recommended to try for this trophy here because you have unlimited time to make all the moves.

You can download the Complete Moves Checklist to keep track of your progress.

I wrote it very late, but maybe it will be useful to someone.
We go into training, select a character, and perform all available special techniques.
To do this, click Start => List of techniques => Special techniques.
After you have completed all the special techniques, press the start button, select a character and do the same. (:

I would like to add that what is important is that when performing specific special moves, damage is dealt. Some characters have moves that do not deal damage normally, but when using the scale, damage is dealt. For example, Flash and Aquaman have these.
