Will now land a month after Steam
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguehas found time to add one more delay to the game’s multi-year wait on a release. This one is at least a lot shorter than its previous slides, and will only affect a single storefront: the Epic Games Store.
Kill the Justice League is Rocksteady’s somewhat surprising follow-on from its Batman Arkham games - surprising in that it looks to be more DCestiny thanArkham Asylum, tied together with live service elements such as a battle pass, loot collection, an always-online requirement and a greater focus on co-op open-world play than focused single-player story. All of those ingredients have seen itgarner some hesitant expectations, given that they sound very much like the similarly comic-book-themedGotham KnightsandMarvel’s Avengers, neither of which managed to make much of a positive impact.
Still, it’s the next DC universe game from the makers of the Arkham trilogy set five years after the end ofArkham Knight, so there’s good reason to hold out hope. And if you plan on picking up Suicide Squad through the Epic Games Store, you’ll have to hold out that hope for another a month longer than expected.
