Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad Shooter Looks Quite Promising!

During the DC Fandome event earlier this morning, Warner Bros. announced a new game from Rocksteady, the developers behind the Batman: Arkham series! The game is about our very own anti-hero team, the Suicide Squad!

An announcement trailer was shown during the event and left people eagerly looking forward to getting their hands on this new Co-op shooter.

According to Sefton Hill, the creative director and co-founder of Rocksteady, the game will be set in the same universe as the Arkham series.

This information was quite surprising, as it was speculated that Gotham Knights, another game that was announced during the event, would likely be a continuation and a sequel to Arkham Knight.

Of course, this was proven false by the trailer itself, which showed quite a bit of dissimilarity to the previous Batman games, in terms of lore.

The announcement trailer itself showed different members of the Suicide Squad, like Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark, engaged in banter, which set the tone for the game quite nicely.

The team then proceeds to take down the evil Brainiac, after receiving orders from what sounded like Amanda Waller.

However, their progress was quickly halted by what looked like a brain-washed version of Superman!

This sudden appearance by the face of the Justice League shows how our team of misfit villains will be going up against DC’s greatest superheroes’ team!

It has been confirmed that the game will be a four-person Co-op shooter, with switchable characters. If, however, a player wishes to take on the game on their own, the other team members will be replaced by bots.

It’ll certainly be interesting to see how the shift from single-player to multi-player will affect the overall experience of the game.

Release date

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will arrive on Xbox Series X, Playstation 5, and Pc in 2022. The exact release date for the game has not been announced yet.
