Miller Ross has shared some new tidbits about Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, but we’re not sure you’ll be as excited about them as he is.
Ross shared this message over Twitter:
“Today, I am here to discuss some of the exciting content coming to Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, the upcoming online multiplayer action shooter from Rocksteady Studios.
One area were other attempts at licensed looters have struggled is in the diversity of the gameplay loop you’ve expected to engage with after the credits roll on the main story campaign. Fortunately, in addition to an exciting ongoing narrative featuring iconic DC characters and even some new and original creations from the talented team behind Arkham Knight, not to mention as many missions and objectives are there are towering skyscrapers in the game’s open-world Metropolis, fans will also be treated to a variety of exciting modes of play that will keep us coming back again and again. Here are my favorites.
Raising Hell is a horde mode where players test their endurance against increasingly difficult waves of enemies for unique rewards and leaderboard bragging rights. Played either solo or online.
QVK is a 4x4x4x4 PvPvE mode. A distant cousin of Destiny 2’s Gambit, with some twists. Teams are pulled into multiversal rifts and must fight and complete objectives to earn favor with a sadistic villain. Entertain him enough and you may receive advantages to help you take out your opponents.
Join an in-game clan of active players and you’ll always have a squad online to take up these challenges with you. And if you’ve got a couple friends who prefer the same character, don’t worry! Teams can feature as many as 4 of any single Suicide Squad member, so you can play how you want to.
I’m so excited to sink my teeth into the next chapter of the beloved Arkham series, and I hope to see you all there. Don’t forget:
January 30th, 2024: 72-hour Early Access (Deluxe Edition exclusive)
February 2nd, 2024: Release of Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League”
That’s a lot to take in, but of course, at this point we have to point out none of the things that Miller Ross has teased for this title have been confirmed yet. Regardless of his credibility with past titles, we’re still not at the point where we can consider these to be confirmed.
More important than that, though, is this really what gamers want from a Rocksteady game? Rocksteady certainly hit it out of the park with Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City, but that universal acclaim did not come for Batman: Arkham Knight.
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League could meet or fail our expectations, as there’s still enough unknowns that we don’t know how this will turn out. But we have seen that
Suicide Squad fans have spotted a mention of "branching paths" in the latest trailer for the game that has some hoping that they won't have to kill the Justice League.
Rocksteady has now confirmed the return of iconic DC Comics character Poison Ivy in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
There have been leaks left and right for several games and their companies this week. While the Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League leak has fallen out of the spotlight in favor of the Insomniac ransomware leaks, It was still a terrible leak for Rocksteady. In their case, these leaks are coming out a recent closed beta, as some testers have decided to break their NDAs and spoil parts of the game.
Rocksteady Studios has released another as part of its “Insider” series, with this one delving into the game‘s support squad.
A new Insider Episode for Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is available, focusing on customization, loadouts and combat. However, it also revealed other characters players encounter from the DC Universe.Major spoilers follow for Batman: Arkham Knight, so be warned.
Rocksteady Studios has released a new Insider Episode of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, delving more into combat and revealing some of the DC Universe characters helping out players. It also showcases the various weapon manufacturers like Star Labs, LexCorp, AmerTek, DCPD, etc.
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will arrive in 2024, and many are cautious and curious about what they’ll see when they finally get to play it. The title hasn’t had the best luck regarding development or sticking to its release dates. However, to make up for the lack of knowledge about the game, Rocksteady has been dropping “insider” videos to highlight many of the things that players can expect. In Episode 2, they not only showed off more cutscenes from the game and gameplay footage, but discussed the many DC Comics characters you’ll run into that’ll help the Squad overall.
Following a series of leaks that appeared earlier this week, Rocksteady has confirmed that Poison Ivy will indeed be returning in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. What's more, it seems as if she will be a very different character from the one fans have come to know.
On February 2 – Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, and Captain Boomerang will be unleashed into the streets of Metropolis, with the impossible task of defeating the world’s greatest superheroes in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League is releasing on February 2, 2024, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows via Steam. But the situation with Epic Games Store has changed, just a little bit.
There are many things you can point to in the present and past of the gaming world and see how far things have come and how certain “practices” have changed over time. For example, in the past, the idea of doing “special editions” or “collectibles” that you would get alongside a game’s purchase was very few and far between, if done at all. But fast forward to now, and they’re all over the place! Plus, sometimes the exclusives are just simple cosmetics versus true “meaningful content,” like with Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League and its PlayStation-exclusive stuff.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League arrives in only a couple short months, and yet, there’s still a lot we don’t know about the game. We know it’s a Destiny-like live-service co-op experience, but what kind of activities can we expect from the game? What kind of post-launch support can we expect?
