Item promised, item due! Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League was released during the State of affairs from Sony
During this extended preview (seen in the articles above), Harley Quinn, DeadShot, King Shark, and Captain Boomerang had to deal with a corrupted Flash. Rocksteady illustrated through several sequences the gameplay of the four “hero“with very airy passages, each showing its distinctive features: the grappling hook for Harley Quinn, the crashing landings for King Shark or the deadly agility of DeadShot.
This first seven minutes of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League ends with a cinematic depicting Wonder Woman’s despair as she wonders how to end this nightmare. To which Flash has only one answer to give him: Kill the Justice League.

Endgame content will be well integrated into the EU, the release date has been announced
But as promised, this extended preview doesn’t end here. It’s the Rocksteady team who took the floor to provide additional details about their game. They go into detail about the gameplay of each character, but also about the historical context of the game. It is Sefton Hill, the founder, who speaks:
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is an expansion for the ArkhamVerse. It’s really about reframing the story now and telling it from the villains’ perspective.
Nick Arundel (Head of Audio) adds that it’s a mix of a lot of things he hopes fans love about Rocksteady and new things. Something observed with the presence of characters known as The Penguin but also those of new like Spirit or toy man. A gear and weapon system (whose interface is reminiscent of Warzone) is also shown. Shortly at the end of the video, the developers point out that content will be available after the story ends with new content and a battle pass (cosmetic only) that should entice players to return to Metropolis.
The big news? This is arguably the release date as Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is now expected to be released on May 26th, 2023 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC.
