Summary
A surprising new update has arrived forSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, giving an extra boost of life to the ill-fated comic book-themed action RPG. Developer Rocksteady confirmed in late 2024 that support forSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguewould be coming to an end in 2025, though a new, unexpected update just dropped for what is undoubtedly one of the biggest video game blunders in recent memory.
Criticized for its live service approach as well as its lackluster story,Suicide Squad: Kills the Justice Leagueis a game that never quite got its feet off the ground. Initialsales forSuicide Squadcame in way under expectations, something that would eventually cause problems for Rocksteady as well as the game’s publisher, Warner Bros. These poor sales numbers resulted in layoffs as well as cut content, though Rocksteady is still givingSuicide Squadsome attention, surprise-dropping the game’s most recent update at the start of February.
Development onSuicide Squadwas brought to an end in January 2025, giving players a sendoff that has already become quite divisive. However, what was expected to be the final update for the game wasn’t its last one after all, with a mysterious new patch releasing forSuicide Squadthis week. Rocksteady has brought the game up to version 1.024, and while patch notes have not yet been made available, previous updates have included bug fixes and content overhauls, sparking discussion over what may be in store forSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguebefore its final curtain call.
Update 1.022, the game’s most recent patch prior to this newest one, fixed a number of bugs and added the Elseworld map. As stated earlier,Suicide Squadwrapped up in January, delivering fans one final season’s worth of content. Included in this final season was the conclusion to the game’s overall story, which, alongside several other developments, addressedSuicide Squad’s controversial plot, which revolved around, as the title implies, killing the Justice League.
While fans never truly know what may happen in the future, it’s more than likely that this month’s update marks the final one forSuicide Squad.However, those who still want to explore the game are in luck, asSuicide Squadwill introduce an offline mode. Players will still be able to enjoy most of whatSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguehas to offer, though the live-service elements of the game will soon become unavailable. Rocksteady made a name for itselfwith 2009’sBatman: Arkham Asylum, a game that spawned perhaps one of the most critically acclaimed comic book video game franchises of all time. It’s unknown what the next steps look like for Rocksteady, though it’s rumored the studio will be heading back to itsArkhamroots in the future.
