Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League
One of the games that players have been dying to see finally got revealed at the DC Fandome and it has a tone unlike anything you might have been expecting. Rocksteady, the creators of the Batman: Arkham series have announced Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League though a nice trailer, check it out below.
Featuring an original narrative set in the DC universe, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League takes place in a richly detailed open-world Metropolis. The story follows Suicide Squad members Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang and King Shark who must take on an impossible mission to save Earth and kill the world’s greatest DC Super Heroes, The Justice League.
Those who have seen the recent movie, or are of course fans of the original comics will know that the members of the Suicide Squad have bombs implanted in their necks or heads, in order to get them to comply.
“Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League showcases Rocksteady Studios’ ability to combine masterful storytelling and compelling gameplay based on well-known DC characters,” said David Haddad, President, Warner Bros. Games. “The team is creating a genre-defining experience that brings the formidable Suicide Squad to life in a way that has never been done before.”
“Our team is excited to officially announce Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and provide a glimpse into our latest project,” said Sefton Hill, Creative Director and Co-founder, Rocksteady Studios. “We’re introducing an original take on the Suicide Squad that combines the rich, character-driven storytelling Rocksteady is known for with innovative gameplay features to create a unique gaming experience.”
The game will let you play solo, swapping between the four characters at will, or team up with online multiplayer co-op. If you do play with friends, you will want to ensure you get your choice of character and the playable characters featured in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League are Harley Quinn (a.k.a. Dr. Harleen Quinzel), the mistress of mayhem; Deadshot (a.k.a. Floyd Lawton), the most dangerous marksman alive; Captain Boomerang (a.k.a. Digger Harkness), Aussie assassin extraordinaire; and King Shark (a.k.a. Nanaue), the demigod humanoid shark and rightful ruler of the seas. Each squad member has their own unique moveset with enhanced traversal abilities to freely explore the dynamic open-world of Metropolis, along with a variety of weapons to customize and skills to master.
The only downside, the game is not releasing until 2022, so there is a long wait ahead, but when it does release, it will come to PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.
