Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League grabbed headlines and courted controversy for its premise: As Job Pressure X, your job was to kill the Brainiac-corrupted members of the Justice League. Over the course of the sport, DC superheroes Batman, The Flash, Inexperienced Lantern, and Superman died by the hands of the Suicide Squad, usually in ways in which resonated poorly with followers.
Now, two seasons into Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s post-launch plans, gamers are tasked with undoing a few of these deaths — in a manner.
On July 25, Rocksteady Studios launched a brand new playable character, Mrs. Freeze, and new story content material for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, and thereby began the method of getting the Justice League again collectively. In season 2 of Rocksteady’s sport, Job Pressure X chief Amanda Waller faucets Mrs. Freeze (aka Victoria Frias) from an alternate-reality Metropolis to recuperate the Flash, a part of a plan to discover a remedy for Brainiac’s corrupting infestation. Job Pressure X travels to Freeze’s “Elseworld” to take down its Brainiac, after which that world’s model of the Flash is revealed to be very a lot alive and is introduced again to the sport’s major actuality.
From there, the Flash is mainly put right into a stasis pod, to not be heard from once more.
This occasion seems to be section one in every of undoing some main superhero deaths from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. There are further empty stasis pods for the remaining Justice League heroes again at Job Pressure X HQ, and in keeping with leaked particulars on Rocksteady’s plans, a minimum of two different heroes are anticipated to return to the core Arkhamverse.
Rocksteady has plans for 2 extra seasons of Kill the Justice League, with new playable characters Lawless (aka Zoe Lawton, daughter of Deadshot) and Deathstroke reportedly the subsequent Job Pressure X recruits in line. Based on unconfirmed leaks from the sport’s deliberate story, these seasons can even convey again Inexperienced Lantern and Batman. Just like the Flash (and the Joker), they’ll be Elseworlds variations of the characters. So sure, the core Arkhamverse variations of these characters will apparently stay lifeless, changed by related — if not practically similar — heroes from the DC multiverse.
That leaves the query of what’s going to turn out to be of Marvel Girl and Superman, the 2 different Justice League members slain in the course of the sport. It’s unclear what Rocksteady’s plan is for these two, and if that plan was meant to increase past the 4 promised seasons of Kill the Justice League DLC. The Suicide Squad sport’s monetary failure might spell doom for the total Justice League’s return, however we’ll have to attend a couple of extra months to get these solutions.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is on the market on PlayStation 5, Home windows PC, and Xbox Sequence X. Earlier this month, writer Warner Bros. and Amazon gave away the PC model of the sport by Prime Gaming for Prime Day.
