Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is an action shooter game developed by Rocksteady Studios and published by Warner Bros. Games. The game is a spin-off of the Batman series, and is a follow-up to Batman (2015). Based on the DC Comics team Suicide Squad, the game follows four supervillains—Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, Harley Quinn, and King Shark—who are assembled by Amanda Waller and sent to Metropolis to stop the alien invader Brainiac and kill the members of the Justice League brainwashed by him. The open-world design allows players, either individually or cooperatively, to freely roam Metropolis.
Kill the Justice League was announced in August 2020 and was scheduled to be released in 2022, but was delayed multiple times. It is set to release for PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S on February 2, 2024, following an early access period for owners of the deluxe edition that began on January 29.
Gameplay
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is an action-adventure game[2] set in an open world based in Metropolis.[3] The game features four playable characters: Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, Harley Quinn, and King Shark.[4] While it can be played solo, the game also features a four-player cooperative multiplayer mode. When played solo, players can switch between characters at will, while the other characters are controlled by the AI.[5][6]
Each character has access to two weapon classes, some overlapping between multiple characters. Each of them also has a unique melee combat style and traversal method, such as Harley who uses a baseball bat and travels using Batman's grapple gun. A skill tree progression is included, allowing players to re-spec into different skills at any point throughout the game for different build experimentation.[7] Post-launch content is set to be released in the form of "seasons", with frequent free content updates featuring new locations and playable characters.[8]
Synopsis
Premise
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is set in the universe previously established by the Batman series.[9] Five years after the events of Batman (2015), A.R.G.U.S. director Amanda Waller (Debra Wilson)[10] creates a task force known as Task Force X / The Suicide Squad, which is composed of Arkham Asylum inmates Harleen Quinzel / Harley Quinn (Tara Strong),[11] Digger Harkness / Captain Boomerang (Daniel Lapaine), Floyd Lawton / Deadshot[lower-alpha 1] (Bumper Robinson) and Nanaue / King Shark (Samoa Joe),[12] for a covert mission in Metropolis.[13] Only when they arrive in the city do they realize the severity of the situation: Brainiac (Jason Isaacs)[14] has invaded Earth and begun brainwashing its inhabitants, including Justice League members Clark Kent / Superman (Nolan North),[15] Barry Allen / The Flash (Scott Porter), John Stewart / Green Lantern (Dan White),[16] and Bruce Wayne / Batman (Kevin Conroy).[17] Waller assigns Task Force X with killing the Justice League to stop Brainiac before he takes over Metropolis and the world.[18]
Throughout the course of the story, the Suicide Squad also interacts with other characters, including Diana Prince / Wonder Woman (Zehra Fazal), the only member of the Justice League not under Brainiac's control;[19] Rick Flag (Jim Pirri), an A.R.G.U.S. operative working for Waller; Lex Luthor (Corey Burton), a megalomaniacal billionaire and Superman's arch-nemesis;[20] Lois Lane, a Metropolis news reporter working for the Daily Planet; Aaron Cash (Duane R. Shepard Sr.), an Arkham Asylum guard; and Edward Nigma / The Riddler (Wally Wingert), a supervillain who challenges the Squad with completing various puzzles across the city. Supporting Squad members include Oswald Cobblepot / The Penguin (Nolan North), a Gotham City crime lord and weapons dealer who supplies the Squad with anti-metahuman weaponry; Mikron O'Jeneus / Gizmo (Rick Pasqualone), a vehicle expert who develops various means of transportation for the Squad; Zalika / Hack (Omono Okojie), a technomancer who monitors the Squad's neck bombs and provides them upgrades; Hiro Okamura / The Toyman (Christopher Sean), a mechanical genius who idolizes the Justice League;[20] and Ivy (Darcy Rose Byrnes), a reincarnated version of Pamela Isley / Poison Ivy who died during the events of Arkham Knight, with no memories of her past life.[21] Four additional playable Squad members are set to be introduced during the game's post-launch seasons, including an alternate reality version of the Joker, Batman's arch-nemesis who died at the end of Batman (2011).[22]
Plot
Arkham Asylum inmates Deadshot, Boomerang, Harley Quinn, and King Shark are freed from captivity by Amanda Waller of A.R.G.U.S. and forced to join her Task Force X, the "Suicide Squad", by having miniature bombs injected into their heads. Waller then sends the Suicide Squad into the city of Metropolis, which is currently under attack by Brainiac. Shortly after raiding the Hall of Justice, they are attacked by Green Lantern, who has been brainwashed by Brainiac into serving his bidding. Green Lantern explains that Brainiac's attack on Metropolis is just the beginning of his plans to terraform Earth. The Flash then intervenes to rescue the Suicide Squad but is gravely wounded. Boomerang pulls the Flash out of hiding, leading to him being captured by a brainwashed Batman. The Suicide Squad then retreats to the Hall of Justice and encounter Wonder Woman, the last remaining member of the Justice League who isn't brainwashed. Wonder Woman refuses to work with Waller, believing she can save her friends, and takes her leave. Waller instead orders the Suicide Squad to kill the brainwashed Justice League to end their threat.
Waller then has the Suicide Squad scour Metropolis for weapons and technology that can be used against the Justice League, as well as forcibly recruiting other villains such as Hack, Gizmo, the Penguin, Poison Ivy, and Toyman into their ranks. They then attempt to apprehend Lex Luthor to obtain his knowledge, but he is killed by the now brainwashed Flash, with the Suicide Squad only narrowly escaping due to Wonder Woman's intervention. She uses her golden lasso on the Flash to try and find a way to stop Brainiac, with him replying before escaping that the only way to save the world is to kill the Justice League. Toyman supplies the Suicide Squad with anti-Speed Force tech he managed to salvage from Luthor, which they use to kill the Flash. The Green Lantern then arrives, forcing the Suicide Squad to flee through one of Brainiac's portals.
The Suicide Squad finds themselves transported to Earth-2, an alternate Earth that has already been destroyed by Brainiac. They also encounter the alternate version of Luthor, who reveals that he had been collaborating with the Earth-1 Luthor in an attempt to prepare him for Brainiac's invasion. Luthor-2 is able to transport himself and the Suicide Squad back to Earth-1 and warns them Waller will get them all killed like her Earth-2 version did to her own Suicide Squad. He has them break into Bruce Wayne's secret bank vault, where they find Wonder Woman crafting a shield out of Kryptonite. After Wonder Woman leaves, Luthor-2 secures the Yellow Lantern batteries Batman was keeping as a contingency against Green Lantern and gives them to the Suicide Squad. He also reveals that Waller has no intention of granting the Suicide Squad their freedom, either letting them get killed or using Brainiac's mind control technology on them otherwise. The Suicide Squad then confronts Green Lantern and manage to kill him, temporarily disabling the shield protecting Brainiac's Skull Ship.
Waller attempts to call a nuclear strike on Brainiac, willing to sacrifice the Suicide Squad, but a brainwashed Superman thwarts her plans. Wonder Woman and Superman then begin battling each other as the Suicide Squad attempts to escort Waller to safety inside the Hall of Justice. Wonder Woman is forced to stab Superman with a shard of Kryptonite, but Superman manages to survive and kill her before retreating. Luthor-2 theorizes that Brainiac changed Superman's DNA to be more resistant to Kryptonite, and suggests capturing Batman so he can devise a countermeasure. They corner Batman in one of his hideouts and are able to capture him and take him to Luthor-2, who manages to develop Gold Kryptonite to combat Superman. With no further use for Batman, Harley executes him to lure Superman out, allowing the Suicide Squad to kill him with their Gold Kryptonite weapons.
However, their victory is short lived when Brainiac captures them, intending to brainwash them into his minions. They are rescued in time by Luthor-2, who reveals that he has learned there are thirteen different Brainiacs spread across different universes working together to take over the entire multiverse. Waller and Luthor-2 then coordinate to teleport the Suicide Squad to Brainiac's location to confront him directly. After a long battle, the Suicide Squad are able to subdue and capture Brainiac, allowing Luthor-2 to extract the information in his brain. The extraction process ends up killing Brainiac, thwarting his invasion of Earth-1. The Suicide Squad then prepares to hunt down the remaining twelve Brainiacs across the multiverse.
Development
A video game based on the Suicide Squad was first announced by then DC Comics chief creative officer Geoff Johns in July 2010.[23] In February 2012, he elaborated that the game was in development, adding that "Because of the concept, you have a game where any of the lead characters can conceivably die and it's not a stunt. Some really cool story could come out of that."[24] The formation of the Suicide Squad was teased at the end of Batman (2013)—developed by WB Games Montréal—which featured a post-credits scene in which Deathstroke is asked by Amanda Waller to join the team, and in Batman (2013), in which Deadshot and Bronze Tiger join the team with Bane under consideration.[25][26] In the years since Batman (2015) was released, there had been rumors suggesting that WB Games Montréal was working on a Suicide Squad game, but no official announcement was made from the development team or publisher.[27] In December 2016, Jason Schreier from Kotaku revealed that the title was cancelled.[28]
Rocksteady Studios announced Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League in August 2020.[29] Rocksteady, the creator of the Batman franchise, was initially rumored to be working on a Superman-themed game, which they later debunked.[30] The first trailer for the game premiered at DC FanDome on August 22, 2020. As the game is set in the "Arkhamverse", plot threads established in the Batman: Arkham series, including the Joker's death in Batman (2011) and the public revelation of Batman's identity as Bruce Wayne in Arkham Knight, would continue in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.[31] The Los Angeles –based company Unbroken Studios are assisting Rocksteady in the developing of the game.[32] In the middle of the development of the game, Rocksteady co-founders Jamie Walker and Sefton Hill left the company in 2022 after 18 years of service. They formed a new company called Hundred Stars Studios in January 2024 that will consist of "only 100 industry veterans and emerging talents."[33]
Release
On March 23, 2022, Rocksteady announced that Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League had been delayed from its initial 2022 launch window to early 2023.[34] At The Game Awards 2022, the release date was revealed to be May 26, along with the announcement that Batman would appear in the game, posthumously voiced by Kevin Conroy in what was marketed as his final performance as the character following his death on November 10, 2022, but it was later revealed that he had recorded lines for the character in several other pieces of media as well, thus making it his final video game appearance.[35][36][37][38][39]
On February 23, 2023, during a PlayStation State of Play and a separate FAQ, Rocksteady confirmed the game would require an internet connection at all times (even when playing solo), have a battle pass (only including cosmetics) and is set to receive post-launch content (such as new playable characters, missions and weapons).[8][40] On 8 December 2023, Rocksteady announced that an offline mode will be added to the game after launch.[41]
On April 13, 2023, Rocksteady announced that the game had been delayed again to 2 February 2024.[42] The Epic Games Store version, however, was delayed to March 5, 2024 with no specified reason.[43]
On January 29, 2024, the game was released 72 hours as early access for owners of the deluxe edition on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Later that day, servers were taken down for several hours to fix a bug that caused players' story progress to be fully complete upon starting the game.[44][45]
Reception
The game received "overwhelmingly negative" press previews in the run up to launch, according to Kotaku and VG247.[46][47] In reporting Forbes linked the lack of a "traditional reviews process" and not providing reviews codes to outlets to this, commenting that "there was some level of concern within the studio about how the game would review based on mixed-to-not-great previews from the games press weeks earlier."[48]
In reviews, some unfavorably compared the game to the Batman: Arkham series. Spanish review site Areajugones noted: "Is this the same Rocksteady Studios that once made the iconic Batman: Arkham games? Honestly I'm not really sure anymore, with the game falling short in almost every conceivable aspect."[49] While Gamereactor stated: "there are fundamental issues that Rocksteady simply doesn't manage to address in a satisfactory way. We're talking basic things like encounter design, combat loops, topography that allows for varied combat, missions that are diverse and offer multi-faceted narrative approaches and... well, loot you actually bother to look at and work hard to get your hands on." [50]
More positively, VGC stated: "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a visually stunning anti-hero romp that's fun to play, even if the things you're actually doing are somewhat repetitive. Rocksteady's Arkhamverse comes to a close in style, without fully succumbing to the live-service demons."[51]
Creative decisions related to the fate of Batman were the subject of online controversy, with some fans on social media claiming it was a disrespectful sendoff to the character and to Kevin Conroy's legacy.[52][53]
Prequel comic
A prequel comic titled Suicide Squad: Kill Arkham Asylum was originally scheduled to release on 30 May 2023, four days after the game was originally set to release, but was delayed to October 2023, and delayed again to February 6, 2024. Its story takes place between the events of Batman: Arkham Knight and Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, and is about how Amanda Waller took control of Arkham Asylum and recruited Task Force X for their mission to kill the Justice League.[54]
