Bad spirit obliges, it would be easy to think that Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has everything, at best a last stand, at worst a suicide mission for Rocksteady. After having their two thinking heads amputated, Sefton Hill and Jamie Walker left for new horizons at the end of 2022, and without any real splash since Arkham Knight in 2015 (Batman: Arkham VR counts for nothing), the English studio seems to be playing tightrope walkers with Suicide Squad. Between satisfying an audience fully committed to its cause since the trilogy Arkham, and agree with a Warner Bros. policy. which seems disconnected from the realities of the industry, we fear that the final result will look like a circus act.

Faithful to the policy displayed by David Zaslav, Suicide Squad will include numerous game-service elements, including one Battle Pass seasonal. Information confirmed by the open pre-orders section on the official website of Kill The Justice Leaguewhich displays the words “1 battle pass token” included with any order of the Second Edition.
Coming back to the video titled “Insider 01 – Story and Gameplay“, it focuses on presenting the environment of the game, namely Metroplis, while giving voice to the voice actors of some of the protagonists: Tara Strong (Harley Quinn), Scott Porter (The Flash) and Nuufolau Joel Seanoa (King Shark ) who come (much too much) to be enthusiastic about the fabulous adventure that will be offered Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League. Despite the fact that Alex Rydby, director of the game, came in person to ensure that his title would above all be guided by a solid story, it is the mechanics of TPS solo or in co-op that leave a greater imprint after viewing the game. the twenty minutes of presentation. The scenario should feature a good big dose of fan service, with the Harley Quinn quartet, Deadshot, King Shark and Captain Boomerang, the Justice League corrupted by Brainiac and Amanda Waller on the lookout. But fan service never equated to good gaming, did Gotham Knights?
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will come out of the woods on February 2, 2024 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam and EGS). Those who have given in to pre-orders for the Deluxe Edition will be able to access the game 72 hours in advance.
