The upcoming Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League game, developed by Rocksteady Studios, has been generating excitement among fans since its announcement in 2020. The game is set in an open-world version of the DC Universe‘s Metropolis and features four playable characters, Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, and Captain Boomerang. The game’s plot centers around the Suicide Squad’s mission to take down the Justice League, who have been turned into mindless supervillains by Brainiac. With its intriguing storyline, beloved comic characters, and immersive gameplay, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is highly anticipated by DC fans. However, fans will have to wait some more, since the launch of the game has apparently been delayed from May 26 until later this year.
According to sources, the delay was due to fixing bugs and improving certain aspects of the game that were lacking. While the game received some criticism for its online requirement and purchasable cosmetic items, the core gameplay is reportedly unlikely to change. This is good news for fans of the original Batman games franchise since the combat mechanics and storyline execution of those games were way ahead of their time. Fans were somewhat disappointed upon the release of Gotham Knights, another recent game set in the DC Universe. Gotham Knights was developed and published by Warner Bros. The game received a fair amount of criticism upon launch, mostly leaning towards the negative side.
As mentioned previously, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is set in the same universe as the Batman: Arkham series and will feature four playable characters – Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark – as they attempt to stop the Justice League, who have fallen under the control of Brainiac. The game will also mark one of the final performances of Kevin Conroy, the celebrated voice actor who passed away last year. Conroy will reprise his role as Batman in the game, though he will not be a playable character. The game is set to be released on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
