Rocksteady recently held a Discord Q&A for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, where it not only revealed some of the end-game content players would engage in but also a Joker-themed area. Game director Axel Rydy is excited about build variety and says the team is looking at ” across all four characters.
As reported by IGN, Rydby said, “Well, first of all, when we designed the game, player choice and player freedom was one of our core design philosophies. We want you to feel like you can make each character your own, and build it to suit your playstyle. But if you take the leap and really play into the gear, you can find truly crazy powerful combinations.”
Post-launch will also add “A LOT” per Rydby. “At launch, we’re looking at hundreds of possible combinations and permutations for builds across our four characters, and this is something we’re adding A LOT to in post-launch. We’re not supposed to talk about that today though, but I’m excited for you all to see the cool stuff we’ve got cooking.”
Players have eight loadout slots and can equip Afflictions like Deep Freeze, Diablo Blaze, Livewire Bolt and Venom Frenzy (all based on the powers of other DC villains). You also have Talent trees that help to further build into a character’s playstyle and six weapon types – Assault Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, Heavy Weapons and Pistols. Each character is proficient in three weapon types.
One example of an early-game build is “SlowMo Crits,” where you suspend enemies with slow motion using The Great Suspender melee weapon and Slow n Steady Grenade. You can then damage them with the Turkey Shoot gun, which guarantees critical hits to slowed enemies.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League launches on February 2nd for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC. Rocksteady touted it as their “biggest cinematic experience” and “easily our biggest game” in terms of story.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is almost here, and its devs are saying it's one of "the most well-optimized games" they've ever worked on.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is out now - as long as you opted into its early access release and you live in New Zealand where it's now January 30 - but it's already been pulled offline due to a huge bug with story progression.
So we haven’t done one of our “where is our review” posts in a while, because frankly, we generally get copies of AAA games on time. Although there have been bumps in the road every so often, most gaming publishers want people to try out their games early, from the press to content creators, to any number of other folks in this modern media landscape.
There’s a lot of story packed into the four games in the Batman Arkham series, and with the next chapter of it set to unfold in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, we thought it was time for a catch-up. With a vast cast of iconic characters and plenty of twists and turns along the way, it can be fairly easy to forget everything that happened in Gotham so far, nevermind what it may all mean for Metropolis. Don’t worry though, we’re here to tell you about all the important stuff in as succinct a way as we can.
The iconic heroes of the Justice League have gone bad, and now it's up to an unlikely array of villains to save the day in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League's PS5 file size is 45 GB. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is set within the same universe as the Batman: Arkham games, placing players in the shoes of Task Force X as they face off against some of the DC Universe's most powerful superheroes. Unlike Rocksteady's Batman games, Suicide Squad is a co-op multiplayer adventure that also features some live service elements.
Warner Bros. Games and DC Comics have treated fans to an exhilarating glimpse into the upcoming third-person action-shooter, “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League,” through the recently released third and final episode of the Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Insider video series. This installment sheds light on the game’s post-launch content, promising an immersive experience for players eager to extend their adventure beyond the main storyline.
Officially, Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League comes out on February 2nd, the same day that another big title arrives from Atlus. But a few days before, on January 30th, a special “early access” period will start for certain gamers to get into the title beforehand. These dates would excite players if they were hyped for the title. But, currently, the hype for the next game by Rocksteady Studios is “mixed” at best. An easy counter to this “mixed hype” would be to see how the reviews turn out and if critics can sway some of them to the developers’ side. Yet, if reports are to be believed, there’s a problem on that end.
Nine years after Batman: Arkham Knight, Rocksteady’s jumping back into the DC universe with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

The new announcement follows the developers teasing hundreds of character builds and distinct loadouts earlier this month.
