Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League grabbed headlines and courted controversy for its premise: As Process Power 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, typically 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 means.
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, Process Power X chief Amanda Waller faucets Mrs. Freeze (aka Victoria Frias) from an alternate-reality Metropolis to get well the Flash, a part of a plan to discover a remedy for Brainiac’s corrupting infestation. Process Power 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 most important 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 part one in every of undoing some main superhero deaths from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. There are extra empty stasis pods for the remaining Justice League heroes again at Process Power X HQ, and in accordance with leaked particulars on Rocksteady’s plans, no less than 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 Process Power X recruits in line. In keeping with 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 useless, changed by related — if not almost similar — heroes from the DC multiverse.
That leaves the query of what’s going to develop into of Surprise 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 complete Justice League’s return, however we’ll have to attend just a few extra months to get these solutions.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is out there on PlayStation 5, Home windows PC, and Xbox Collection X. Earlier this month, writer Warner Bros. and Amazon gave away the PC model of the sport via Prime Gaming for Prime Day.
