Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Is a Looter Shooter With a Battle Pass

/

Sony Interactive Entertainment reserved a good portion of February 2023’s State of play showcase for Rocksteady Studio’s upcoming looter shooter Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, showing new gameplay and confirming that the game will be supported long after the game has launched and will feature a battle pass filled with only in-game cosmetic rewards. 

The latest trailer shown above displays the game’s shooting mechanics and traversal, which is the first time we see a clear look at how one mission will play out - you flying around building to building, taking out Braniac’s many creations. The game can be played solo or up to three other players as this co-op is a giant sandbox with loot and a gear score, the usual looter shooter concept of progression. 

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is set five years after the events of Batman Arkham Knight and features Brainiac slowly conquering Earth by taking over Metropolis and mind-controlling a good portion of the Justice League. Superman, Batman, The Flash, Green Lantern, and Martian Manhunter are now under Brainiac’s control, but to my surprise not Wonder Woman.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will be supported after launch

For post-launch content, Rocksteady Studios aim to support the game with new missions and new playable characters for free. The battle pass is said to have nothing but cosmetic rewards such as new outfits, emotes, and other items for the players. With it being supported in this manner, it’s curious to see what endgame content would look like to entice players to play the game long after they’ve finished the main campaign. 

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is set to launch on May 26 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC (through Steam)

Sony also revealed PlayStation Plus’ March Monthly Games lineup as well as the five games coming to the Game Catalog for Extra and Premium/Deluxe subscribers.

Metaphor: ReFantazio is now my favorite title from the Persona team by far. It’s one of those rare games where its main pillars work harmoniously, and you get lost in its charm. It’s a pristine JRPG, with enough style and substance to satisfy hardcore JRPG fans, Persona fans, and even those who rarely touch JRPGs.
